I'm in a bind guys, this is me reaching out...

[twothirteen]

I'm not an avid poster, I know, I do however lurk a lot, and I vape a lot. I have a Reo Mini, and it's great.

I'm a college student and I've fallen into a severe money abscess. I literally can not afford to vape at this point in time. I vaped my last drip 6 days ago, and I've had to turn to cigarettes as my means of supplying myself with nicotine. I've had serious heart palpitations and I find it difficult to take deep breaths. I never had this feeling while vape'ing, ever. I'm genuinely concerned about my health. Also when I tried to quit nicotine I became not only physically, but mentally ill. I have been having these effects since smoking only half of one pack of Cigarettes.

I've written critical research analyses on the topic of E-Cigs, none of which got published unfortunately, my point is that I'm dedicated to this substance, and admittedly addicted to nicotine.

Any funds I possess have to go towards rent, and I don't even have enough to pay for that. (All of $150/mo mind you)

I am hereby having to ask if there are any good Samaritans or business owners who want review videos filmed of their products, in exchange for nicotine juice. You would be saving my very delicate health, and in return obtaining genuine first-hand video reviews of your products.

All I ask is for consideration & sensitivity. I do not write this lightly.

If you would like access to my research analyses' I'd be happy to deliver.

While I do understand money issues and lack there of, I don't understand how you can afford cigs in a part of the country where they are over $5 a pack but you can't afford e-juices?

I also know money issues as well, but yeah. Now that I have hardware that works ... a week's supply of juice is easily less than 2 packs of cigarettes.

My room mate shared them with me, and has since cut me off. I have been the anti-cig & pro-e-cig advocate of this house, yet I've had to cigarettes & I've been paying the physical and mental tolls ever since. I'm in a vicious cycle -- If I quit, I get dreadfully sick, if I smoke cigarettes I get scary-sick, heart problem sick. My uncle was found to have holes in his heart, I don't know if I'm prone to the same disease. I just know that I've never felt these symptoms until I started smoking cigarettes (again) very recently, and I can't stand them and I want them to stop... I'm concerned about my health, yet I don't know what I can or should do. I do not have health insurance.

If I were to put together $10 to go towards E-Cigs I would place an order, problem is I can't buy it in Oregon off the shelf, as I haven't had any luck in search results finding a store front, and secondarily most places are asking ~$5-10 in shipping. I have rent to pay in under 5 days, and I literally can't afford to purchase juice in any sort of amount.

If I could buy $10 worth at the store down the street. I would be able to do so. Hell I'm already screwed on my rent, but my buddy might be buying my cell phone, and if he does I'll have just enough to stay current on my rent, which is an absolute priority as I do not want to be evicted and/or have my credit ruined.

You might want to check out some of the contests on elixertv, vapetv, etc. Some people end up winning a large haul from there.

Also, you can go the DIY route which should save you a bunch of money in the long run. Do some research about local vendors too. Some might even let you pay in fragments over time. I'm a college student too, and I've worked out deals with local vendors due to a lack of funds too. Reach out to them, stop by, they can help.

There are contests running right here in ECF, many of them for juice, and there are all sorts of sales right now. One vendor is having a contest and 50% off his juice.

Good idea, and they also do extra flavoring at no extra charge, even on the free bottles.

I actually just read this today bud and you may want to consider some research and medical attention if your having concerns with your heart, I dont think ecigs are for you either dude. "When you smoke tobacco, or use any sort of product containing nicotine, you're actually causing your blood vessels to abnormally constrict. This essentially narrows the arterial walls, creating unneeded resistance in blood flow. As the resistance increases, your heart must work that much harder to pump blood throughout your body, raising the rate in which your heart beats to accommodate your system's need of blood, oxygen and other nutrients. IDK how true that is but ill tell you my heart sure as hell beats differently when i vape too much or smoked, i dont have heart issues so i dont really have any concerns as i use in moderations.
GO SEE A DR AND GET CHECKED!!


Good luck!!

Thank you for this information, I'm looking into this site now. I have been reached out to by a good Samaritan & I supplied proof of my predicament. I'm very thankful for this community. It's come through for me time and time again.

I feel as though slowly weening myself off of nicotine dependence is my only next step. I can not go through this again, it's too risky given my cardiovascular health. If I was to go & see a doctor I would be showered in medical bills. I simply can not afford that. I am enrolling to University Hawaii Manoa in the Spring, I believe they provide their students with medical insurance. I think I will get a full check up and explain this situation to the doctors when I find it financially feasible.

Plan of action: Cut off all Cigarette smoking -> Vape as usual, but taper down on it & improve my cardiovascular system by performing non-rigorous forms of exercise such as walking & light swimming.

You could also PM UntamedRose, or any of the PIF moderators, and explain to them about your "emergency need". They will determine if you are truly in need and can be a huge help getting you what you need.

Obviously this is only to be used in the case of "can't make it till payday" situations.

This was my exact thought also when I saw it...

You are awesome!!!! I just got 20 mls for .80 cents. I guess its like a free sample in a way, real cool.

 

[James416]

Dude I think maybe you should just quit the nic bro, if you wanna vape still then go with no nic.. Kinda Doesn't make sense to continue if you feel you have these issues with your health.. It's like tossing a toaster that's plugged in into your bath lol you know what the outcome is Gunna be..

I sent a PM to UntamedRose. Thank you for sending me in the right direction.
