Since we newbies have to post 5 threads before we're able to post/respond in other areas of ECF, i wanted to definitely share some encouragement to all of those that have just started vaping recently.
First off, a lil about my past cig habit. I smoked for 30 plus years from a pack and half to two packs a day of the Marlboro lights...and i LOVED it!! Never did i ever think i would be able to kick the habit, just because i did love my analogs so much! However, i stumbled upon a video with the word "vaping" in the title and was curious as to what that even was, so i watched it.
The girl that made the video had recently went through some dental work, which i'm also getting ready to undergo in a few weeks and she was talking about how once she started vaping, she never looked back and made quitting seem so easy. Well....to say the least, i was very skeptical, for many reasons.
But it peeked my curiousity enough that i started watching vaping videos for hours on end and learning all i could about it. Every one of them talked about how vaping changed their life and how easy it was to quit....so the more i thought about my need to STOP smoking...even though i didn't want too, i realized that it was time to give it a try and i actually was pumped up about purchasing my new Innokin itaste....yes, i did my research for weeks prior to getting on the band wagon.
Ok, to shorten this up a bit....i just want to say that it was just this past Friday that i put my cigarettes down and learned for myself just how much i LOVED vaping and the fantastic flavors i had purchased!!! BUT....until i got my ejuices tweeked a bit...i admit that i slipped a couple of times and "tried" to smoke an analog....Pfffffftttt, i'd may as well licked an ashtray that had been sitting for a few years!! It was all i could do to take a few puffs and i would put it out and grab my iTaste real quick to remind myself what i would be missing.
Well, just since Friday.....i have NO more wheezing, my skin is softer as well as my hair!! I also find myself having a huge amount of more energy and also can focus a lot better....which is a huge plus for me because i seriously was beginning to wonder if i had A.D.D! Not joking! And this is just within a few days of detoxing off of thousands of chemicals that are in the analogs!
Which is another thing....if you've not researched what analogs have in them....do so NOW!!! I knew they had tar and a few other bad stuff in em...but when i stumbled upon a list that included ARSENIC....i freaked! So yeah.....my advice to ya'll is do your research and learn all you can about what analogs contain and also research all the GOOD things about vaping!
And lastly, please pleaseeeeeee do NOT get discouraged (for whatever reason) with vaping. It takes time to tweek your new Mod or eGo starter kits and also finding that one flavor that you fall in love with. But as the days pass and the less you smoke on those death sticks, you'll NEVER look back again and you'll realize this is your chance to put them down for good, without hardly any effort due to finding so much enjoyment that comes from vaping!! You'll never get bored with the millions of flavors you have to choose from nor will you miss smelling like a stale ashtray and feeling like you're 10 years older than you really are!!
So keep on vaping and keep on learning about it. And IF by chance you're tempted to smoke an analog....stop for a moment and vape. If that doesn't curb your craving and you do take a few nasty puffs....do NOT feel guilty or feel like you've failed and most of all....Do NOT stop vaping because i have faith in you and i know if i can do it, so can you!!!
Much love & blessings to each of you and i so look forward to making some new friends here at ECF!!
