Good evening dalies and mentlegen,
Hello to you all. I'm new to vaping, this is my story of how I came to be here. I quit smoking about a month ago. I had quit cold turkey in the past, but during stressful times relapsed. Before quitting again I was smoking pouch of roll your own cigarettes a day, or about 40 unfiltered smokes. This time around I bought both gum and patches to keep withdrawal at bay. The gum was so nasty tasting I used one piece and threw the rest out. The patches worked somewhat, but I still fighting craving after craving, fighting hard, and losing. After about a month I was cracking bad, bumming cigarettes while drunk at parties, buying an occasional single black and mild after work, as I knew I couldn't trust myself with a whole pack of smokes. Then, a few days ago, the cravings were just overwhelming me, my life was becoming dysfunctional, it was all I could think of, I was going to cave in so I could resume living a normal life. While wearing my nicotine patch, I was walking to the nearest gas station with the intention to buy a pack of smokes. Luckily when I got there there were disposable cigalikes on the counter, and I was still determined not to smoke. I walked home vaping happily. It's now 3 days later, and I haven't even put on a new patch, nor craved a real cigarette. It's like I can have my cake and eat it, too! So now I'm here researching APV's deciding which will be right for me. Thanks for having all this info in one place!
