Hi Kitty - Reflections:
Stay connected with ECF - it helps a lot!!! Great folks in this thread to lean on and learn from ... just ask!!
Finding the right combo of Vaping device, carto/atty/tank, and mmmm...mmmm...good juice can take a bit of time.
If your still smoking you can start with Virgin Vapor 12 mg. samples. Try out different cartos etc. to find what will work for you. When you have settled on your gear and flavor, have cut some of your cigarettes, and are ready to try going ciggie free get a 24 mg. bottle and a 12 mg bottle of your "I love this flavor." Try going back and forth between your 12 mg. and 24 mg. If 24 mg. is too strong for continuous use and 12 mg. is not strong enough you can mix equal parts to try out 19 mg. for continuous use. Keep some 24 mg. in reserve for super duper ciggie attacks.
I think I saved my sanity, when I first started vaping, by going to my doctor. I brought in my ecig, showed it to him, and asked if he would be o.k. with giving me a prescription for low dose valium. Since I had smoked a pack a day for 39 years, since age 15, I knew quitting (even with an ecig) wouldn't be a walk in the park for me. As a non-drinker, the valium was a godsend for those times when I got so agitated I was beside myself. Didn't use it very often, but there were those moments when that the little bit of help, calming my nerves down, kept me from picking up a ciggie.
Currently using: Ego-twist, 2.0 Cisco atty. and Virgin Vapor: KCM 12mg. The following in 6 mg. LemonRoseWater BlueViolet Thai Mango. Craving some BlackCherryAmaretto so will need to order some.
Sure am glad to see the twist kit VV put together. Great kit for new vapers (even if they want a ciggie look alike).
Do you have any reflections over the last year to share?
