How do you vape?

[Giraut]

Coming from the cigarette world (like most everybody here I suppose), I find it helpful to count in "cigarette-equivalents" vaped. That is, when I "light one up", I make sure I'm in a nice environment, with a coffee in front of me and/or with friends to have a break with around, turn on the e-cig, vape 10 puffs (one cigarette) and turn it off. Then the next "cigarette-equivalent" happens whenever I'd smoke another regular cigarette, not before. If I reach 15 "cigarette-equivalents" (150 puffs), then I'm done for the day.

Otherwise, I find I'm sucking on my e-cig all day long, all the time. It's inconvenient because

1/ I'm chained to my e-cig throughout the day
2/ I vape a lot more than I'd like, and go through tank after tank
3/ I go to bed with a heaviness in my chest, from having vaped so much, that I'd rather do without
4/ I can't keep track of how much I vaped
5/ Better for the health though vaping may be, it's still an addiction, and I'd like to fancy myself in control of my addictions

What's your vaping regimen?

I give my body whatever it says it wants.

At first, I was like you. Over time it has become a much more relaxed schedule.

I vape until I don't. At the beginning I seemed to be "chained" to my ecig/pv/apv but as time has gone by I have slowed down considerably. This could be due to a better delivery system because I've decreased my mg of nicotine. I like that you keep up with yours, I've never considered it, but it has come naturally anyway. I can go for hours without a vape. I never could have gone hours without a cigarette! Thanks for sharing!
