Just saying Hi!

[Bluemoon]

Hello fellow vapers! My name is Blue, and I am fairly new to vaping...couple of weeks now is all.
I started with a borrowed MK1 Screwdriver (with the black part of the button missing, lol) and within days, after much research, I got an eGo.
Then I got a MEGA everything from Totally Wicked and some VG blueberry from Liberty Flights. I think I like VG better than PG, but the stuff is like syrup! I have a blend on order from Velvet Vapours.
Anyway, that's where I'm at on this adventure and I look forward to getting to know you all and benefitting from your experience!

Hi Blue! Welcome to the forum! Were you a smoker before or are you a no nicker (just vaping for the flavor)?

 

[Bluemoon]

Hi MsV. I was a smoker @ 1/12 packs per day. Had quit many times, but could never stay quit. Always caved to the comfort of the action of smoking, eventually.
Now I haven't smoked in about a week. I'm hopeing to lose ANY desire once I get this vaping down better.
I vape 18mg, but hope to cut down to no nic over time.

 

[HeatherC]

I can understand the desire to reduce the nicotine but you should also be aware that Nicotine in the dose we get from vaping (or smoking for that matter) is about as harmful as caffeine is (not saying harmless of course) The danger in smoking cigarettes is NOT the nicotine but the tar, carbon monoxide and 4000 other chemicals including 60 or so known carcinogens in the air when u smoke and inhaling all that stuff... none of that is present when vaping simply because there is no combustion involved. I started at 36 mg and am down to 9 now only because the higher doses give me headaches now! So basically the point of this whole little story is: Dont push yourself too hard... and remember every cigarette you DON'T smoke adds 7 minutes to your life! There are links to the info I said about nicotine available on the ecf Library... or just google nicotine.

welcome and congrats on your new adventure. the best way i can describe things is.... my smoking was an addiction.... now vaping is my hobby. now i am not making a claim that i am not still addicted to nicotine, i'm sure i am. BUT SMOKING WAS NEVER THIS MUCH FUN! LOL. i really enjoy all the options that come with it

Hi Blue, sounds like you got a good start with many good products. Good move to join a forum too. Nice to meet you!

Hi Blue, welcome to the forum! I'm also new here, even though vaping for more than 3 weeks!

 

[Bluemoon]

Thank you all for the welcome!

I have been vaping 6 weeks now. No ciggs at all for the last 4 until yesterday.
Don't panic, lol, I discovered I couldn't smoke it!
I took 3 very unpleasant drags and then threw it away. It was NASTY! Took several hours to get the yucky taste out of my mouth.
I have quit before with nicotine gum and it never did that. When I caved on that, the first ciggy was wonderful, but now?
I don't think I could go back to analogs, even if I wanted to.

 

[HeatherC]

Isn't that amazing. Can't understand HOW I tolerated that horrible taste for 23 yrs LOL

 

[RobinRyan]

Hey Blu,welcome and glad to hear that you can t stand analogs already anymore!That s the way to go
I haven t tried them again after quitting but hopefully will happen the same thing ,not be able to stand them!

Welcome. If your liquid is too thick, add a couple drops of distilled water. Shake it well and that should do the trick.
