27 in a few days, started smoking when i was 15. So that makes me a 12 year smoker. vaping for 1 week now, havnt even looked back
40 years old
23 years inhaling smoke.
I grew up in a smoke filled home. Almost everyone smoked around me growing up.
At 17, weekend parties meant drinking and smoking. This quickly advanced since I could smoke at home, and at friend's homes. So I did.
I did quit, both times I was pregnant, and didn't start again until after weaning my babies.
The Siren call of cigarettes came back both times.
Finally, I decided if I could quit for my children while they were dependent on me physically, then I should quit because they are dependent on me mentally. Also, I wanted to break the cycle: I didn't want them to have any form of a relationship with cigarettes through me.
June 17, 2013 was my first day of vaping and freedom. Over a month ago it's been. I haven't kept track of the days: that relationship is over, and I just haven't looked back.
(Actually, twice I've gone to the banner that tells me how much money saved and cigs I've avoided. Cool to see those numbers)
Edit: I used to smoke 30-40 cigarettes a day. Now, it's zero.

Male, 50 years old. Smoked occasionally as a teen (both my parents smoked), but was a "full time" smoker (1 - 1.5 packs/day) for the last 25 years. Started vaping on July 3 of this year and haven't touched an analog since.
41, been smoking 25 years, the last ten years or so I've been up to two packs a day.
Just started up with an MVP and some simple carto's and a rebuildable Cobra, down to 2-3 camels a day after a week on the juice. I've tried to quit forever, this is the first time I've felt like it was a real possibility.

A hell of a lot people start vaping at 15/16. It's pretty close to harmless and with most never picking up the trend of smoking analogs I think it is a great thing.

I'm 28 and smoked for somewhere around 14 years, about a pack a day. Two weeks or so smoke-free thanks to my eGo setup and thrilled to be done with that crap for good!
I started vaping in May, 2012 and on November 5 of 2012 walked away from the killer sticks

Smoked for 8 years before the tax jump in Minnesota spiked the price of analogs to over 7 bucks. It was starting to really mess with my health anyways. (A flight of stairs was enough in itself). Been cigarette free for 15 days but love vaping way more!
