We all smoked so I know some of you know what I'm talking about.

When you used to wake up and go outside and have that first smoke of the day, and it was like heaven. I would just get the biggest rush, there were times when I would wobble for a bit. I haven't gotten that with vaping yet. I don't know if it's cause I can vape in bed and just take a drag, even in the middle of the night, but I miss that giant rush and the complete relaxation of my body. Sometimes with vaping I feel like I'm having to remind myself I have a nicotine dependency. "Oh it's been a couple hours, in the past you would be craving a smoke right now, you should really get sum nicotine, youre looking thin my dear". I just feel like smoking was the smoking bad boy on a motorcycle who you try and change, and vaping is clark kent...always there for you day in and day out, and he's great....maybe even super, but you take him for granted. Sorry It's 2am and I'm kinda :blink:, but if you could figure out the morning rush deal that would be super

First off, welcome! As for the giant rush obtained from cigarettes, vaping will never reproduce that entirely as the carcinogens, free radicals, and various assortments of harmful chemicals in cigarettes contribute to that feeling you're describing. Case in point: take, for example, carbon monoxide (AKA CO to science nerds like myself)... CO competes with oxygen (O2) binding sites on a little molecule called hemoglobin in your red blood cells. Hemoglobin is the transport mechanism in RBCs for oxygen to reach all cells of the human body. Hemoglobin has an affinity for both oxygen and carbon monoxide. When you smoke a cigarette, carbon monoxide attaches to hemoglobin and competitively inhibits oxygen from binding, thus reducing the oxygen being distributed to your body. Of course, with vaping, there is no combustion involved, which results in no inhalation of carbon monoxide, and thus no O2 deprivation in the body; the result is an absence of the characteristics you described such as lightheadedness and various physiological changes that you admit to missing from analogs. Cigarettes, with all of their brutal glory, surely create a more dynamic experience on many fronts compared to vaping, yet it is a fact that cigarettes are all the more dangerous. Good luck with vaping, you can trust you have chosen a better path and will feel the physical benefits in no time!!!

i can agree with Switched, while not at it as long as he, i always had my morning fix when i got into my truck to goto work every day. at first i was using a higher nic (24 mg, i was at 18 for the rest of the day then) for my morning fix, but now i dont even think about it until i am half way through my morning coffee sitting at my desk in the morning

That's where 6volt vaping comes in! When I need a rush and am so stressed out and analogs are calling my name, I grab the omega, and my HV carto's and put in my 6v batts, with some 36mg tobacco flavor ejuice, and that first draw is like heaven.

I guess it would, 36mg at HV is like vaping 48-54mg, if 12mg is equal to 24mg when 12 is at HV.

When HV appeared on the scene, HV liquid was 12-14mg tops, because of the high voltage, you don't need as much nic to get ya there. So vaping 36mg at HV, wow. I vape 8mg down from 30mg. When I need a fix i jump to 12mg or vape 8 at 5-6Volts. Please be carefull :)
Ok you convinced me. Now I am scared.8-o

Ahhh, the memories .... I am gonna have to agree, I am struggling to be satisfied first thing in the Am, just as you said it.

For the rest of the day I am ok, except sometimes after I eat I still want an analog ... but Morning coffee, sitting out on my terrace ... well, that was my .... and I miss it truthfully :(

So I think i kinda got a couple ideas on what areas need to be looked at. I'm vaping 18mg right now because I bought a 30ml bottle of mlv's wurther's and I'm using cartos, so the little 3ml samples kinda just sit there. I'm awaiting an order of 30 ml of 24 mg after eight, and black mamba and ry8 (both 21mg) from pink spot vapours. So when those arrive, it'll definetely help. I've also noticed that since I'm using knock-off 510 batts, that my vapour strength trickles off immediately off of a fresh charge. So I find my best morning hits come from a freshly charged all night battery.

As a temporary fix, I think I'll drip some of the 24mg sample bottles in the morning, off a fresh battery and I've finally saved enough to order a provari tomorrow, after I go deposit a check.

I'm hoping using a provari, coupled with higher mg juice on the way will solve the equation.

That should help especially if you have cartos/attys that are capable of handling HV. Something else I have noticed is mint/menthol juices hit harder IMO
