E-Cigs and ...yawning?!

[hstl_]

Hey guys, remember I am still new to the Vape scene so I apologize for the dumb question haha!

I've seemed to notice when vaping on my KR808 that am yawning quite frequently.. oddly enough. Is this normal? Along with the yawning my jaw has been pretty sore from vaping. It isn't a hard draw, but maybe I am just vaping too much!?

Anyone else have this happen to you?

Have you stopped or reduced your analogs since you've been vaping? If you aren't getting as much nicotine as you were before, that can cause the yawning/tired feeling.

Maybe you're just vaping when you're tired and don't realize it?

That might be it. When I quit analogs I switched to smokless snus products. Since I started vaping I haven't touched snus, so yes, that very well might be it.

I can't say as I've experienced excess yawning, and I'm going to go ahead and assume you're not vaping chamomile tea. It could be that you're taking deep enough drags that you're inadvertently triggering the yawn reflex, perhaps -- that's when you flex the muscles that pop your ears. Combined with the deep drag it could be triggering yawns.

poor ecigs are blamed for everything! Farting, flourescent urine, you name it!

I think you and Watkins hit the nail on the head. I take enormous draws from my PV so that makes a ton of sense. That mixed with the w/d's of snus I am sure they're both working in favor of making me yawn. And just to clear things up, I am not vaping Sleepy Time tea here.. haha.

Sorry for the double post.. but, I love my E-Cig! Even if it meant yawning 9,000 times a day, I would still vape! Just wanted to know if there was a connection between the two!

I haven't experienced this. I vape about twice as much as i had a cig.

I agree, nicotine is a stimulant. Not sure though!

hstl_, it seems counter-intuitive, but you get a better load of vapor in your mouth if you draw slowly. You also don't have to inhale all the way down to your toenails. The vaporized nicotine seems mostly to be absorbed by the membranes in your mouth and down your windpipe about to your larynx -- your lung tissues aren't nearly as good at absorbing nicotine from vaping as they are absorbing the scorched nicotine from smoke.

OMG I thought I was the only one farting with flourescent urine! Thanks for "coming out" about your problem. Is there a "special room" for those of us who are bright and flatulent? Your advice is appreciated.

 

[Shadow102]

The big question, does your excess flatulence reflect the flavors you've been vaping? Honestly if I start farting Waffles I'm going into showbiz, ok maybe just carnival work.

Now I see why they pulled the plug on ECF last night....
from yawning to carnival work in 13 posts, may be a record

 

[Optimo]

I heard people yawn to increase oxygen intake to the brain.

Thank you for your post and the advice. Maybe together we can keep this topic on the right track.

I was just teasing! No idea at all regarding vaping/yawning. I was a bit tired when I started vaping (didn't notice the yawning though), I just put it down to quitting the cigs.

You're not the only one!

with nicotine being a stim like jimmy said, I also yawned some felt tired I guess when quit. But even though your just vaping a regular food additive PG and its not really harmful, it can cause problems when chainvaping. Throat can burn, jaw can be sore, or sore mouth, and you can still get a cough and a lil trouble breathing from vaping too hard too often. Not sure all the scientific or medical reasons this happens, but once youve been off the reg cigs for awhile I would cut back on the vaping a lil.

I've found I had more energy once I quit smokes, vaping made me less tired all the time.
Could be the less CO2 and CO I inhaled the less I yawned ??? YMMV
