Headaches?

[thom13]

Anyone else get them when they first started vaping? I'm fine and then once I vape I get a headache. Do they go away once you adjust to vaping? I also noticed that I get quite dehydrated from vaping so perhaps that's it.

hmmm, also, why isn't my banner show how much $ I've saved or smokes I've avoided? weird

Too much nicotine will give you a headache. You might try slowing down on the vaping, or try a lower nicotine-content juice. Yes, vaping will dehydrate you big time - drink lots of water!

^ happened to me, used to get bad headaches till i dropped my nic level, sitting at 15mg right now. went from 20 to 15 and no more headaches

I'd guess your nic is too high. What are you vaping and are you drinking more water?

Vaping takes the moisture out of your system so you need to stay hydrated by drinking LOTS of water! Drink more than you think you need!

I'm at 18mg

+1 (vape, sip, vape, sip, repeat) If that doesn't help drop your nic level.

thanks everyone

yeah try what Natalia says and if that doesn't cure it drop down to 16mg

When I first started vaping, I did tons. It was the first time in years, that I did in on my own couch, I don't like the stench of analogs in the house. So because of this, I found myself going EVERYWHERE with my PV in hand, which meant I was puffing on it all the time, with lots of headaches. Not even water was curing that.

I dropped my Nic from 24 down to 18mg's and blamo, no more headaches. Well maybe once in a blue moon when I get a new batch of juice in and have to try them all in one sitting... hahaha.

If you are quitting smoking and transitioning to vaping I wouldn't be too quick to attribute it to too much nicotine. If you look at that standard ACS chart of possible symptoms when quitting smoking "headaches" is right up there. Personally I went through major withdrawal in my first two weeks of vaping while dropping my smoking from a 1.5 PAD habit down to 4 cigarettes a day. I had chronic, but mild, headaches during those first two weeks. But if anything it felt like major nicotine withdrawal rather than nicotine overload. Regardless, the headache problem can and will go away. Do feel free to play with the nic level if you think it's a problem. But keep in mind that removing smoking from your body is putting it through a hell of a lot of changes which will cause physical and mental/cognition problems you need to get through. It's easier - and worse - for every individual.

Great advice I too suspect my headaches were from giving up smokes not vaping. Water helped also. Good luck.

Yes and no! Nicotine is not felt instantaneously like smoking in the system, so it very easy to over do it in the beginning. Besides the chain smokers, few seldom smoked 2 cigies in a row and usually put the 2nd one out half way through it.

Although now @ 8mg from 24-30 twnety some odd months ago, I can over do it while sitting at the computer. No foul though and usually will refrain from vaping as I have no need to. I don't get headaches just feel unmotivated.
