Just wanted to introduce myself

[Microdot]

Hi! I started vaping and quit smoking on April 4th of this year. I smoked for thirty years and was consuming about a pack and a half a day. I never really wanted to quit, I LOVED smoking. At least once a year the girls I worked with would all decide they were going to quit smoking and try to encourage me to join them. My response was always the same, "you guys have a good time with that, I don't wanna."

When the discussion of e-cigarettes arose I was intrigued, I could maintain the habit I loved while reducing the harmful side effects. I ordered a kit from V2cigs and have been analog free since. I could not believe the ease in putting down the analogs. I've since found a juice company I LOVE (Kick Bass Vapors) and can honestly say I have no desire to go back.

I just wanted to come on and introduce myself, and look forward to contributing to the forums. Hope you have a great day and a happy Fourth of July!

Welcome Microdot! I was/am in the same boat, I loved smoking. I just started vaping also, and still get the smoke breaks that I think I'm actually addicted to.

Hi Microdot. I'm new also and was wondering, since i smoke almost the amount that you smoke, which mg of nicotine are you using? i ordered 30.

Thank you all for the warm welcome and kind words of encouragement. I don't often post, but I'm here often reading the forums.

Metalmomma, I'm vaping 12mg. I know that seems low, but it was what V2cigs suggested on their site. I really haven't had a problem with the low nic level. I have always believed I was more addicted to the action of smoking than the nicotine, and I can still get plenty of action with vaping!

The first month of vaping I was using tobacco flavored liquids and trying to make my PV be an analog. I would on occasion become momentarily annoyed when I would reach out for my cigarettes and my hand would land on my PV... it would be like, "oh, that's right, this is what I do now." I would miss my traditional cigarettes for a minute or so, then it would pass. When it really changed for me and I knew without doubt I would never smoke cigarettes again was the day my first order came from Kick Bass Vapors.

That was the day I truly embraced vaping for what it was. Smoking never tasted that good! I no longer wanted my PV to be a cigarette, I loved it for what it was! Personally, vaping is definitely a more enjoyable experience than analogs ever were. I was discussing with a friend the other day that we never used to have at length conversations about how wonderful our cigarettes tasted! Vaping is a whole new world for sure, I'm so glad I discovered it. Best wishes on your success!
