E-Ciggs Work!

[CHAPS]

I smoked for more than 25 years. I tried every possible means of quitting. I felt it was a hopeless situation and sooner thought I could climb Mount Everest than quit smoking. Feb 5th will mark the one year point since I have taken a single drag from a real cigarette. Do I still use e-cigs? Yes, but I don't care. I don't hack and cough and have none of the harmful effects of real cigs and I don't even miss smoking those old things. I couldn't be happier and I feel like screaming from the top of Mount Everest that everyone who has failed at quitting smoking should try this. Chaps, Florida

Hi Chaps !

Almost a year, wow ! Congrats for quitting cigarette !
I will do that pretty soon too, am shopping for my e-cig right now, takes a lot of patience to go through everything...

I was wondering, after a year, do you still use nicotine ?

That's the big thing for me. thinking that if I want I won't have to quit the habit, just let go the nicotine and continue with the 0mg liquid.. that is awesome !

Congratulations Chaps. You should buy yourself a new toy for your anniversary. I got myself a silver bullet for my one year anniversary.

Wow, that's really good. I'm still on analogues but have cut smoking down by half. I figure over the next month I'll just be vaping, hopefully. The morning and bedtime cigs are my 'favourite'. Boredom doesn't help either and sometimes the PV doesn't cut it, hopefully nail this ASAP!!

Well done Sir!

@Chaps...Grats on your one year anniversary! Welcome to ecf. I can't help but wonder what took you so long to find us. Like you, I wanted to shout it out to the world that vaping was a wonderful thing!

@Garza...Don't worry about it. I started out with the intention of cutting my smoking in half. In reality, I went from 2 packs a day to about 5-7 cigs a day without even really trying. At that point I decided to try quitting altogether. It took me about 3 months before I finally realized I didn't even want the cigarettes any more. The morning, lunch break, and the bedtime cigs were the hardest for me to give up.

My wish would be that more smokers would read ECF and see this type of response to PVs. Congrats CHAPS!

Good job! I'm at a month off analogues and am starting to miss them (only a tiny bit. Not enough to go back!). Whenever I get a craving I just hop on the boards here and try to post and read my way through them.

 

[CHAPS]

Yes, I still use nicotine ones of varying amounts. After doing a ton of research and seeing the effects of getting rid of the carbon monoxide, tar and other carcinogens, I just don't see nicotine as the enemy any more than caffeine. You CAN quit and this I'm convinced is the best tool out there.

 

[CHAPS]

Yes I still use nicotine ones. I've seen the effects of quitting the carbon monoxide, tar and other carcinogens and after doing a ton of research, I don't consider nicotine in and of itself any more harmful than caffeine so I'm not stressed about quitting it too.

They really do work. I was quite hesitant at first and thought I'd go back to analogs after a few days, but here I am, almost 2 weeks without a cigarette and even though my girlfriend still smokes a few analogs per day and I go outside with her, I don't get a craving to even taste them.

 

[texasgranny]

Congrats! Aren't these little things just about the best thing in the world?
Such a life saver for soooo many.
I quit totally (analogs) after just 2 weeks of starting to vape. That was 1 year
and 6 weeks ago. I tapered off over the 2 weeks of starting to vape and just said
I was going to try to go a whole day, without the morning analog with my coffee. (loved that one)
Well here I am, almost 14 months later and have never had that morning analog again.

Don't even miss it!
So glad you found your way here and your testimonial gives inspiration to all.

Congratulations, chaps! We are new vapers ourselves (wife and I). Like you I feel so much better being able to get the nicotine without having to take all the garbage in that cigs have along with it.

 

[dearme]

Pixilator, an increase in the strength of your eliquid should stop the cravings, or your PV might not be powerful enough if you are using one of the slim ecigs.

Chaps Congratulations and welcome!

 

[FreeFire]

That is excellent news Chaps! Congratulations and welcome to the ECF!

 

[Zubenel Genubi]

Congratulations! A bit over two weeks w/o analogs for me, too. I quit on 1-2-12, so the date would be easy for me to remember. I don't even miss the old things--when I get the urge to smoke, I vape, and I am satisfied.
