I haven't had a cigarette or dip in two weeks. I'm at my friends house and he's smoking like a chimney in Norway. I'm sitting here vaping with no urge to pick up a cig at all. It really works!

Good for you! It really does work, although there will be rough patches here and there. I had a few times (honestly only about 3-5 in 4 months) when I REALLY craved a cigarette although I knew I wouldn't enjoy it as much as my vape. I vaped through it, and now I don't crave it at all anymore. I have to wonder if it might just be our bodies craving some of the other crap that we smoked for so long. I've tried a drag from a friends cig, and it was disgusting! I can't believe I enjoyed that taste for so long.
Think positive, and keep vaping my friend! :)

At first I avoid being around people I knew smoked a lot. Finally I got invited to a BBQ that I couldn't turn down. Lots of people smoking and it did not tempt me one bit. Although I thought they stunk. stinks.gif I apologize to all people I ever smoked around because I honestly did not realize it smelled so bad.

It truly is wonderful that it does work. I am actually quite surprised because I smoked for 46 years and thought I would die with a cigarette in my hand. And I did not have more than one truly rough patch of about a week after I started vaping. Just amazing.

Enjoy your smoke free life and spread the word. There is something that works. Congratulations to you.

I am down to the point where I vape 0 mG nic juice now and doing fine. I dropped my nic levels way to fast. I was down around 2 mG at 2 months into this. By 3 months into it I went to 0 mG and had real problems. Aside from insane cravings I found my Anxiety and Depression raising its ugly head with a vengeance. Went to see my Doc and she flat told me. Keep some higher nic around and vape the tar out of it when I feel the start of anxiety or depression and it should pass within a day. Sure enough it is working for me. No more problems. What she told me is that many smokers were self medicating their other problems with the nic in cigs. Dropping too quick set off the stuff I used to self medicate for.

Not saying that everybody is going to go through something like that. Just that if you see it happening see your Doc and vape the tar out of a higher nic level until you can see them. An hour or day of higher nic is a whole lot better than a lifetime of sedatives and antidepressants in a hideous cycle.
