I just did the math and I am vaping between 4-5 ml a day. I had dropped from 18 mg to 6mg within a few weeks and I have stayed on 6mg in the last 4 mo. I'm wondering if I dropped too quickly (I was a 1.5 PAD ultra light smoker). But at the same time, I feel like this is now a physical habit (and desire) to vape as I watch TV, surf the web, etc...so I feel like I should keep the nic fairly low.

I was a 1.5 PAD smoker and after a week I had to go from 24 MG to 18 MG to 12MG because I was feeling dizzy, sick to stomach, headaches and couldn't sleep. You will certainly know if you are getting too much nicotine. I find having 6MG to chain vape, a 12MG to occasionally vape and an 18MG when I need a quick nicotine fix has helped cover me for the different times during day.

I stated at 18mg, now Im down to 6, depending on the vender's options I might even get a 4mg juice so I can vape more. My once smoking addiction is now a vaping hobby, I went from smoking almost a pack a day to feeling sorry for people when I see them smoke lol. I find myself vaping more from trying out different flavors I bought more than just vaping to get a nicotine fix. Only side effects I've ever felt was getting a dry throat, the solution to that is drink some water or whatever u want, & keep vaping.

Looking back, I went thru some "weird" stages vaping. There were a few weeks about a month or so in, that I felt vaguely "not quite right."

It wasn't anything really strongly noticeable, just that I didn't feel quite like myself. Like I was on-edge all the time, fidgety, and this caused me to vape like I needed a pacifier or something.

this was a combination of quitting smoking, plus having to mess around a little with my ejuice nic level.

As it turns out, it was from vaping 18mg. Everyone told me as a new vaper that if I smoked a pack a day, I should start off with 24mg or 18mg.......WRONG for me.

I brought it down to 12mg, and I just started feeling calmer and less fidgety...immediately. Noticed I could put the PV down for long periods and do chores and errands with no problems.

Now I vape about 9-12 and feel great.
