I smoked an entire pack of analogs last night :(

It's OK! It's over and done with. We forgive you! Now forgive yourself, and get back to vaping so you can feel better. : ) Good luck!

I haven't had a desire for a ciggie when out, but I know that crappy feeling you are talking about Don't worry about it. It happens, and there is no reason to use it except as a learning experience. Perhaps it may be a chance to explore some other flavors or strengths when vaping out on the town. I like the cinnamon idea! Get some of your favorite drink of choice and experiment.

Remember, smoking is a habit, and habits chain together. You have conquered one, you can conquer this one. Use this forum, you have lots of great people with great ideas here.

Who's got time to drink?

+1 for going to bars prepared. High nic, strong tobacco flavor, lots of batts. Maybe beer or jerky or pizza or red wine or mojito flavor juices. Mojito juice with mojito drinks, etc. I love cherry cheesecake with dark beer . . . now I got to go try vaping that . . . off to the store for beer . . . good thing it's the weekend!

Well i was doing good..but seems when i go to bar and drink i always want a real analog. Last night I ventured to the local Arm-Pitt bar and had a few brews..then just bought a pack of Marlboro reds. Smoked them all in about 3 hours..chained smoekd em..Today i feel run down..from both the booze and the smokes.
Anyone else have problems when you drink? Seems every time I go to the bar to drink I end up smoking...but at home when i drink i'm fine.

This is my second time quitting analogs with the e-cig and I must say that it's been effortless this time. I don't wanna jeopardize my progress, so I've just been letting my booze chill in the freezer(Take the pun at face value, lol). When in doubt, avoid the Stout. Lol. Just start from square one again and you'll do just fine.

I was worried about that also. I even took a pack of unopened analogs and a lighter to tempt me. I was fine and didn't get the urge. I vaped like all heck but didn't have the urge to smoke. I have been to the bar twice and have been fine. I don't understand why I didn't smoke, cause the bar is where I would chain smoke. I actually noticed the smell of an analog in an ash tray the wasn't completely snuffed out. Everyone is different, I bet the more you go the easier it will get.

i'm smoking cigs now due to a total equipment failure a few days ago. i have new stuff on the way but until then i'm back on the ol' american spirits. i'm not beating myself up, i know i'll be back to vaping as soon as my stuff gets here. i've been a good boy for 3 months, a couple packs won't hurt me.

 

[jonny2hottie]

if it happened then it happened..learn from it..your stronger than you give yourself credit for...try getting a mod and juice that do the trick...i started to bring a different nic level out with me when i go out drinking..i chain vape because i want to smoke an analog but it helps having a higher nic level and especially a mod that will last long enough to withstand the hours of chain vaping. i use a bottomfed device with 18650 and never worry about having to drip or run outta battery power while im out. give it a try. i know you wont be dissapointed again. Good luck!

I believe that if you want to smoke analogs..in a bar or not, you simply do not have the correct ecig or nicotine content to deal with the problem.
I guarantee that if you were vaping at higher voltages and increased nic, you would not need to resort to analogs.
If you did, you would probably just light one up and put it out, because of the lack of taste and lung hit.

Some of you guys who used to enjoy malboro reds, should be vaping with two 3.7 volt batteries, and a stronger nic content of up to 30mg, with a strong taste of blended tobacco (turkish blend mixed with malboro nic juice for example).
Just some thoughts ...

I will agree with this, quality devices are a must. I don't even need the higher nic levels, but for those times that might get tough there is no substitute for voltage. 6 volts dose wonders if you are having a hard time. I have not slipped myself even after a few beers but I can see how many would. Get yourself a better PV and find some great juice, = tobacco, cuban, pipe, something tasteful and something you don't normaly vape .

Don't feel bad...did the same thing myself the other day because I lost a few attys, a charger and battery all within a day or so. Was drinking that night and had to go to the analogs....oof. Felt the same next day. It happens but keep at it.

 

[mskitty]

When I go to a bar I make sure I have plenty of attys and batts (charged) it really helps if you are tempted and whip out your 5 or 6v then everybody wants one.

Don't let it get ya down it happens. I was surprised I got through the holiday week with all the drinking I did with my ecig. It wasn't easy but I am so determined to not go back to analogs I made it work. Good luck!

 

[BsgD68]

I have very little will power for these things, so I just don't expose myself to the temptation. Out of sight, out of mind.

 

[5cardstud]

You can't smoke in the bars here so I didn't smoke at the bar when I was still smoking.

 

[progg]

If your goal is to stop smoking you've answered your query.
Don't go to bars until you're ready to withstand the temptation. When you do go don't over imbibe.

 

[AttyPops]

Ah, the good 'old days.... lol.

Hey, stay with it. Don't quit quitting! You did answer your own question. Hang in there.
