Friendly warning for new guys about nic strength.

[Spunky]

Started with 24 and had heavy chest and went to 18.. one place I order online even makes a 16 for me ( sure wish they would fix their online sales link ) I miss my Pixie Dust. There are NO places in my area in Louisiana to go purchase e liquid

I smoked for 40 years and been smoke free for over a year now thanks to vaping. I started at 24 mg and lowered to 18 mg and now ready to try a lower nic level. Higher gives me the heavy chest feeling

I started out with 20 mg but my juice tasted to strong, now I have dropped down to 16-18 and seems to be working for me. I pretty much vape all day...

I found as soon as I went to a tank on a mod i lowered my nic to 12mg and its been great
I am killing 4-8 ML a day its been a year plus.. I feel wonderful
I tried 0 Nic and it was just missing taste

I can't believe a reaction with my pain meds never occurred to me. When we smoked, I smoked about double what my wife did. When we switched to vaping, she landed on 18-24mg. And if I use anything stronger than 12mg. I feel like death. I've been curious why...

long term use of pain medication cause many unwanted side effects. the more they are used the more they are likely to affect your metabolism. don't forget your body is going through somewhat of a shock as there is no tobacco being ingested. unfortunately you are also going through tobacco withdrawal. no matter how rosy a picture some paint on here, i can tell you the first month sucks. we knew that as smokers anyway. i can tell you it does get better. you need to power through, suck it up, find the right vape, and stay committed. health benefits speak for themselves, once you are completely detoxed from tobacco, you will find your overall pain levels improved. and as always make sure you have a sip of water to follow your vaping immediately. it really helps.

You are forgetting the first rule of vaping... everybody is different.

There are LOTS of people that switched easily, with no real troubles.
And there are many that switched easily, but had some side effects or withdrawal symptoms.

And there are many that did not switch so easily.
And there are many that could not switch without finding a way to get the missing tobacco alkaloids.

Vaping is a spectrum of needs and solutions.
