Well I started out vaping 24mg, and was seeing definite signs of slight nic overdose. I dropped to 18mg and have been fine on it for awhile, but all of a sudden the last couple of days I've been feeling a little overdosed when vaping for awhile... I'm not vaping anymore than I normally do, but it's definitely hitting me harder for some reason... I just placed an order for some 11mg juice, and I'm getting ready to go try and find some VG to cut my current juice with...

Just don't understand why all of a sudden I can't handle the 18mg anymore... This happen to anyone else, or is it just me?

It did happen to me. I didn't take Spikey's advice which was to stay low because I find myself vaping constantly. My 901 has become another appendage. So for me I'm currently on 11mg and feeling fine. I use the stronger stuff for those times I really need a kick.

You are wise to listen to your body. I've heard of some people getting pretty sick on the stuff.

Congrats on stepping down!

Very interesting, I have noticed the opposite effect. I was using 11mg because I was out of 18mg and was dying for a cigarette. I bumped back up to 18mg and was fine.

Sorry-was off on a tangent!

Are you using a different PV than usual? Maybe it's a good thing, try buying some lower level nic liquid and see if that helps. You may be able to go all the way down to 0! It could also be that it is not a nicotine overdose but an allergy to the juice you are using, whether that be PG or some sort of allergy to the flavoring. Are all the juice you experience this with from the same site?

EDIT: And yes, sometimes I vape too much as well. This could also be if you are getting alot of e-liquid on your hands or skin due to a leaky cart / overfilling / etc. Nicotine can be pretty readily absorbed by the skin.

OZRICK:

I've been using my 510 exclusively since I got it last week. I've only been steadily vaping one flavor, I've tried a couple others but have found I'm just too partial to menthol for anything else..

Really the only thing different in the last few days has been that I started using my 901 carts on the 510, but I use the same filling, so I don't see how that could effect anything... I dunno... My ultimate goal has been to wean myself down to 0 anyway, I just didn't think my body was going to do it for me...
