Let me explain my question first, as I am really intrigued by this. I like vaping. I just recently started and haven't smoked analogues in a week. That's actually a record for me, so I am very happy. Not only that, I really have no cravings for analogues and have already started to dislike the smell. However, I am intrigued on whether I should be worried about becoming an addict to vaping. Here's my train of thoughts:
However:
So taking these last two things in my train of thoughts into account, I am intrigued on whether vaping could in a way be more "addictive". I mean, I have found myself wondering if the psychological aspect of it (thinking to yourself "this is much healthier than smoking") plus the options aspect of it (i.e. "yey! Cheesecake flavor!" or "great! X company just came out with a new clearomizer, I gotta try it!") could potentially make people get more hooked into vaping than they were onto smoking in the first place...
Do people vape more often than they used to smoke for example? Do you end up with higher nicotine levels in your blood than when you were smoking? Quitting smoking is hard; is it easier or harder to quit vaping?
Again, just intrigued about what everyone thinks! I'm sure a lot of things on this line could just be opinions as there is not that much hard data or research but I am intrigued and would love to hear what some experienced vapers think.
- I intend to quit.
- I am currently smoking 25mg liquid.
- I already bought 18mg, 12mg and 6mg.
- It is my intention to cut down the nicotine level progressively until getting down to 0.
However:
- Being new at this and having found this site was a revelation to me in regards to how many people vape, how many products there are, the thousands of juice flavors, the amount of e-cigarrete offerings, cartomizers, clearomizers, eGo this, eGo that, and so on and so forth.
- I've been looking around and readings threads like the one about what everyone is vaping right now, what is waiting for you in the mail, the hundreds of flavor reviews, comments from "veteran" vapers, how many people go through a lot of mL of liquid a day, and so on.
