I hope I'm allowed to do this

[HarmonyPB]

Hi everyone! I just joined today. I've actually been reading these forums since 6/10 but never got up the nerve to join. I started vaping in 7/10, actually quit completely (not on purpose, it just kind of happened) at one point. My husband still smokes the real things and I had one or two here and there. I got back on them pretty heavy in the last couple of months and all the things I hated about them started bugging me again. So I filled all my cartos, bought some juices from Ms. T's and a Bloog MF and I'm back on the wagon! Although I'm still smoking an analog or 3 everyday...I think I might need a higher nic lvl, I can sit here and vape forever and still crave a cigarette!! And my husband asking if I want one every time he goes out doesn't help either! The last week or so I've been scouring these forums for inspiration. I have a renewed excitment about vaping again. Just wanted to say thanks to all of you for the interesting reads and library of help, information and inspriation! Hopefully I'm here to stay and maybe even comment every now and then.

Welcome to ECF! sounds like my ride, quit for several months, went back to the nasty's, back on ecigs with a few cigs here and there. I finally got off the few cigs here and there with some purecig from FSUSA. tastes a hell of a lot like an cig.

Good luck, and I hope it sticks with you!! and don't beat yourself up if you slide back here and there.

Glad to hear you're doing so well, WE HAVE FAITH IN YOU!

If you ever have any questions about the BMF, there are plenty of people in that suppliers sub forum that are very helpful.

Maybe buy a new pv to spark your interest again and, like you said, increase your nic. What pv do you have, and what nic level are you using?

Welcome to ECF, Harmony!

Maybe a higher nic level will help with the cravings. I know I started at 18mg and had to bump to 24mg for a while. I was also using both for a while, too. I'm now down to 18mg and loving every minute of vaping!

Welcome to ECF officially then,
I smoked for 40 years, so I started out at 36mg and still anywhere from 24mg and up now. But....I don't smoke anymore. Quit on vape day 2. Whenever that urge hits me, I just vape like crazy and that takes care of the urge. Sounds like you might need a higher dose of nic.
Whatever you do, don't give up 'till you get what you want.

Good luck....you CAN do this.

Thank you all so much!! I can definitely use the encouragement!

I fell for the "scam" at the mall So I use the Smoke51 Duo with blank cartos from LeCig, filled with all of the "noob" juices I bought last year. I bought a Bloog MF to get me started again, although it hasn't come in yet (just ordered it on the 15th and I'm waiting very impatiently by the mailbox). After reading up on the forums I figured this would be a good one to try because I've heard it's pretty close to the real thing and I want the blue LED!!! I'm not real sure what lvl of nic I have. again. I bought a bunch of 5mg when I first started because I didn't know any better. I figured out very quickly that those weren't going to work! So I bought several bottles of 24mg unflavored and tried to mix the 5mg to a higher nic lvl. I think I got them all up to 14mg and bought a couple of 14mg, so that's what I'm vaping now. On the 15th I also bought some 18mg juices, but they are from Ms.T's and according to EVERYONE they won't get here for at leasst another week. I do have some of the 24mg (unflavored) left and I'm considering bumping my juices up that way.

I think you'll see a big difference between the 51 and the Bloog, you are really going to love it

I definitely recommend that you get some 24mg something though, because unless you want to vape it flavorless you won't be able to try full 24mg with the stuff you have on hand. The average vaper uses 24mg, it's really not as strong as you imagine.. I did the math once (which due to many variables can only be taken as an estimate) and figured out that if you vape 24mg juice and you go through 3ml per day then you get about the equivalent of 3/4 pack of camel straights or newport 100's per day worth of nicotine.

18mg might work, but if it doesn't just don't be afraid to step it up to 24mg.

good luck!

Harmony...put your foot down and tell him that you want to quit and to please stop asking if I want "one." Ask him to join you.

Congrats on coming back.

Yeah, I had to do that when I quit once before. I would be fine but if he would even use the c-word I had an instant craving! He is trying vaping (again, he lasted 2 months the first time), but he wants to finish his "last pack" first...this is the third "last pack" though. Poor guy, he just lost his job and he's vaping to cut down on costs. He's really trying but he just doesn't get into it.

And thanks!

Hi Harmony, there are other addictive chemicals in analogs so you still need to wean from those. Smoke an analog when you have a craving, it should be less & less. That's what I did. Good luck!

Thanks for the info!! I am seriously considering getting some 24mg. If it turns out to be too much for a normal vape I think it would work for when I'm drinking...I can only go so long before I NEED an analog when I drink!

That's true, it's nice to have something with a little extra kick when you have a stressful day or you have a couple of drinks. Even if you don't use it all the time it's nice to have a little extra-high mg around just in case.

Lol, so I couldn't help myself..just bought 2 6ml bottles of 24mg

I started vaping in 09 with e health then found the fourums and got a 510, then a mega 510. My mom got very sick and passed away and I went back to analogs. In July last year I got my Riva and it was awesome but I couldn't give up the 3 or 4 analogs everyday or when I was drinking. Then I tried Pure Cig from Freedomsmoke usa in 30mg. I have not had a analog since even while drinking. Love that stuff it is my all day vape. It really taste like a analog, ashy smoke. I get menthol. They sell samples try it it really kills those cravings
