It wasn't necessarily peer pressure, I just wanted to try something new and adult-like. Quite honestly, I've hated it.

good reason to quit ...

Most folks here on ECF (myself included) only started to quit smoking ... and most of us like it, because it trumps smoking and we are still nicotine dependent.
 
1- There has been some studies, for example, some studies on mice inhaling propylene glycol (an ingredient in mouse eliquid) showed no measurable differences from the control group:
The safety of propylene glycol (PG) when inhaled through an electronic cigarette. Studies on the effect of the inhalation of propylene glycol through a personal vaporizer.
2- Most eliquids contain no toxins in their unvaped form, not counting nicotine which you are not asking about
Some studies have been done and the vapor produced here is some info on that

4- I recomend US made eliquid, I wouldn't trust chinese as they use a variety of ingridients. If your just vaping PG/VG, there shouldn't be much to worry about.

Nice stats Notorius! love the charts.
 
It would be in the best interest of the respiratory health for all people to do so. Not to mention, in all likely hood, their mental health.:)

hah! mental health has gone out the window too! the new mental health standards publication says we're all wacko and has a description of each diagnosis we all suffer from.

Didn't know that. Do they have any medication I can get started on? BP may need the money to offset declining gum sales.

You know, that might be our solution to the whole vaping problem right there. We start a campaign telling all the paranoid "don't smoke/vape that around me" individuals that the cities are toxic and then we take over whichever city we find most appealing. ;) :laugh:

CASAA.org has a library of info that might interest you.

Here are a few links, in the meantime.

Drexel study. http://publichealth.drexel.edu/~/media/Files/publichealth/ms08.pdf

Indoor air IVAQS study. IVAQS Project

Outdoor air Utahs ClearStream Air Utah Vapers - Clearstream Air Results.

Dr. Farsalinos research at Onassis research center. Research

Dr. Robert sons 1942 study with monkeys. Propylene Glycol (TRUTH) - Electronic Cigarettes

There are lots more and more are incoming all the time.

The safest thing is to not vape or smoke at all, but I'm not your judge or parent, so I'll quit here.
