Too much nicotine and now I need to cut it down more but I am afraid I will go back to craving a few tobacco cigarettes a day again.
I went from 16-18mg liquid to 36mg liquid and that was when I stopped craving desperately. But sometimes i feel my heart race too much.. so I need to cut down. I am trying 50/50 cut with glycerine usp from the pharmacy (Yes, I have recently ordered Kosher Vegetable Glycerin because most people on here claim it is safer, but right now all I have is Swan's Glycerin USP so i hope it's OK). before I was only putting in a little bit of glycerine just to add a little more puff, so it was still pretty high in nicotine. Problem is, I am starting to crave real ciggies again. It's only been a week off them. I want to stay off them, but at the same time lesson the nicotine.. has anybody else quit this way? Started REALLY high then slowly worked down? Not only that, but i think I vape too much so i should figure out how much to cut it to compensate.. I am really glad I am now actually coughing up tar a bit which proves this is helping me, but I constantly feel buzzed. I smoked for 20+ years at a pack or more a day and I get more buzzed vaping than i did smoking.
I would like to hear from people who got off tobacco so quickly from 36mg per ml vaping, and how they managed to lower it and stay completely away from real cigarettes. I want to get back down to the 16mg per ml and keep it there long term. I considered myself a fairly heavy smoker, but i know I am getting way more nic than I did smoking and am wondering if i am causing damage when the idea was to reduce damage and still have nicotine (I'm not a big caffeine person. Rarely drink coffee but sometimes have a few iced-type ones once a week, rarely drink soda unless it has rum in it(which I do much less these days) So it's nicotine for me and I like it.
Hope this message isn't too garbled up, but i am a little frustrated.
edit: I will say I like half glycerin mixture as it feels more tangible in the lungs.. yeah, I see a lot more smoke which I like, but it also feels like it has more substance and so satisfies better on the physical habit end, but not the nic part enough to stop the cravings for "analogs" as most seem to call them here. OH! And I have 100ml of the 36mg and another 300ml on the way (EastMall is having a sale this month.. buy 100ml get 40ml free.. buy 200ml get 100ml free in the sampler section) so I can't go and buy lower nick anyway as This will last me a LONG time. Glad the shelf life is long enough.
First time I have ever started a thread...
