That's what I would do. Someone once asked what the best battery was and I told them a backup. I just don't ever want to find my self in that situation but if I did I would just go buy a disposable. A real cigarette would probably taste so bad you'd have to. Good luck to ya. Most of the time the little voice in your head know what their talking about. heeheeView attachment 255048

Boy I can understand. I am still battling getting off those last 4-5 per day. It has been nearly 4 mo. I do feel better though that I have cut my smoking in half or more. I really need to keep on in my vehicle..that is where it is the hardest because I always forget to bring a pv with me. Well, that and a morning smoke with coffee.

A month or so ago I bought a cigar to make a flavor extract and kept a chunk of it to smoke before work. After getting slightly over halfway through I put it out and realized I had lost my taste for smoked tobacco. I pulled out my PV and vaped a little bit and proceeded to get nic sick in the park by my work. I was wretching into a trash can and the mounds of brocoli and veggies I ate earlier didn't want to come up so not much came out. Needless to say I didn't smoke any more tobacco after that. I'll stick with my vamo vv vw with an emergency pany 18650, my wire rope/mesh Igo-W, and my DIY 26 juice. Be prepared next time and not too hard on yourself, just recognize the pattern.

All I can say is it is going to do you no good to beat yourself up over this. See it for what it is: a learning experience. Now you know that you need to have a backup PV available to you at work or in your car. Make plans when you get out of work today to get yourself a backup and a backup plan. And just start vaping again.

You will be fine. Use this as a learning experience. Bet you don't forget your PV next time. Don't beat yourself up over it.

So they don't sell disposable e-cigs in Bangkok? How much is a pack of cigarettes in your country? It's been three months vaping only for me and lately been getting the urge to smoke, haven't though. Try not to beat yourself up about it. At least you know there is juice to vape when you get home.

Just think you went a whole year, quite an accomplishment. My best friend is traveling there in December (his wife is Thai) and loves your country. Is nic juice illegal there? Just curious, he doesn't vape.

I can't find disposable around here in my country, Kj. But thanks for suggestion. I smoke 6-7 cigs already and now I smell like an ashtray, dang!

sorry for the rants guys, I'm just disappointed myself for letting this happen.

Better reset that sig banner, huh? :D

I'm sorry to hear that you gave in.

Personally, I've gone days without any vape and though it was hard, kept from buying any ciggies.

It's just sheer willpower. Either you remember all that you hate about smoking and resist till the urge passes.. or you don't.

Don't feel so bad OP, I went 1 year 2 months without a cig back from 09 to 10, and fell off due to almost the same reason you did (with me my only charger I had broke, so I bought a pack)! I was so depressed, mad at myself, I started buying packs after that. A couple months later I got back into vaping, stopped smoking again for 8 months, ran out of juice one day as I was being irresponsible with paying attention to my inventory, so I went out and bought a pack. After this second time of me failing myself, I fell into a deep feeling of guilt and started smoking again for another 6 months, then went back to vaping and once again stopped smoking, which is where im at now. It happens, but this time I am prepared!!! I AM LOADED THIS TIME!!! The 3rd time for me will be the charm, I haven't smoked in a good long while, I never realized how much I missed vaping until I went back to it! Don't fall down because of this as I did the first 2 times, be strong, continue vaping on, you'll get over it!!! :)

It's not the mistakes you make that are important. It's the lessons you learn from them and how you move forward.

Get some backups, and backups for the backups. Have something everywhere you are that you can turn to in one of those mini-emergencies. Bring at least two PV's everywhere you go. Ego 650's with Evods are great, pocket friendly setups and they're cheap.

I keep a Blu disposable in my truck, unopened.

Don't beat yourself up about it. At some point, almost all of us smoked and vaped for a while. I did, and prided myself over the times I reached for my PV instead of the pack of analogs.
