Post Traumatic Street Disorder does not go away when you get rid of the significant other it stays with you for a long time. Want to talk about scars from a past relationship? I still wear one from an X that I still see in the mirror every day over 25 years later............... That was NOT PTSD!

Right then :), after going back to the smokes for a few weeks, getting back to normality, two weeks ago I started smoking and vaping at the same time. Cheap pen vape stick from the local supermarket and the lovely juice i had before from the local vape shop. :thumbs:

I gradually started phasing in the vape and phasing out the smokes. Today I just vaped and doing well.

Conclusion of my issues/symptoms:matrix:

When starting vaping some months ago I vaped a week on 14mg on a 1.5 ohms tank. I was fine.

Vaped 14 mg on 0.5mg had a little bit of a nicotine overdose, freaked me out had a panic attack, i.e.
fast heartbeat, tight chest feelings, breathlessness, slight numbness on left face, nausea etc.

I continued to have panic attacks and anxiety for some weeks even after stopping vaping and just smoking,
couldn't stay up for more than a few hours before having to go to bed. Doctor said I was literary running out of adrenaline.

I have
combated the anxiety which is getting easier. :thumbs:

I am now vaping through it, cheap pen stick on 12mg 50/50.

Not allergic to any of the pg, vg or
flavoring, I panicked and needed to lower my nicotine depending on the equipment. :vapor:

:rickroll::headbang::thumbs:

Hi All,

Brand new here.

Started vaping years ago when the technology was not as advanced, but then went back on the cigarettes.

Started two weeks ago with no probs, on a kangertech xbox mini mod with eleaf toptank. 1.5ohms 15w 14mg juice.

Then got a kangertech top tank 0.5ohms 25w. continued on 14mg for a few days.
Then suddenly I started getting a fast heartbeat, tight chest feelings, breathlessness, slight numbness on left face, nausea etc. I panicked. Went to the hospital for tests and the doctor said theres nothing wrong, it is anxiety/panic attacks.

Realized I should go down on my nicotine I went down to 6mg, then shortly after to 3mg.

Still struggling, I drink plenty of water, I do suffer with GERD but on medication.

I read godspeed1208 post and was intrigued, wondering how he got on and what it could be.
tight chest feeling
When you go subohm you inhale a lot more vapor, try reducing your mg, I had the same issues, sounds like too much nic for you for now, also do check your heart with the doctor, just to make sure that you are otherwise ok, and that it is not something physically wrong.

Best wishes hope you feel better.
