I am still smoking 2-4 analogs a day, even though they no longer satisfy. I think it is part of the psychological addiction, rather than the physical addiction. I also smoked a number of analogs the day after a friend agreed to purchase my remaining 5 pounds of tobacco. It was as if I better get all I could before it was all gone.
Aside from the remaining 5 pounds, I probably have a quarter pound left, but only because I stuffed a carton and mailed it to my sister, in order to help get rid of the remaining baccy I can touch and use.
I look at it this way. I have smoked analogs for 28.5 years now. I do not believe one can overturn a habit of that length in one week, or even one month. I do beileve it will be easier once I no longer have any more baccy in this house. After 28.5 years of analogs, I believe I will have to retrain my brain to understand the nicotine now comes from vapor instead of analogs. I do not expect this to happen overnight.
Except for 3 of the past 28.5 years, I smoked ultralights exclusively. And even then, I could not tolerate smoking more than half of one stick at a time. The nic was just too strong for me. So I ordered the low level nic carts and liquids with my first e-cigs. However, even the 6 mg low nic solution was too strong for me. So I blend it half and half with 0 to leave a 3 mg solution presently, which seems to be about right. I eventually plan to blend down to 2 mg solution, then 1 mg solution.
The reason the analogs do not satisfy is because I am not smoking them to get nicotine, since the vapors provide that just fine. Additionally, the analogs no longer taste 'clean,' and leave that coating in the throat which the vapors do not. On those days where I switched back to analogs, I could not wait to get back on the vapors the next day.
Just do whatever works and listen to your body. You will no how to proceed.
Anyway, I actually found that the first few days,
