My nic needs keep changing

[Susaz]

No two days are alike in nicotine content. Some days I can vape 26 mg straight from the bottle while dripping, yesterday I was at 16 mg and today I started shaking and had to lower it to about 14 mg. I wonder, do your needs change? I've also tried to make it low and go up, but many times it didn't work. I also kept a 24 mg bottle and atty to get a nic shot whenever I need the extra nic. Do yo fluctuate this much?

Never really changed nic levels but sometimes I'll use a little more or less.

I remember the nic high from being a virgin vaper though. Don't get that any more.

I've never changed nic level, but there days that I tend to vap a lot more than normal

Since not all of my vendors make the same nic levels, I vape between 8mg and 12mg, depending on who's juice I'm using. I do tend to vape a bit more I think when I load the 8mg stuff, but that's just an observation, and may not be spot on accurate.

Some days I vape more than others, but 2mg either way for me doesn't seem to make much difference.

But a 24mg vape now will give me a killer headache!!

I always have two strengths, one at 12mg and one at 18mg. I use the 18mg while at work and the 12mg for chain vaping. I chain vaped the 18mg for a while when I started but got the shakes too. For me, it definitely just comes down to how much I'm vaping.

Yes I change nic levels during the day and night. I'll go from 24mg to 18 mg and maybe even 12mg before bedtime. I just know what I crave. I've found that a 24mg boost of Nport will satisify most of my needs when I'm really craving. But hard to sleep if I vape that amount;.

Were you hitting the same number of times, how much time between were they or holding the same amount of time? I get that sometimes with 24 when I'm really enjoying the taste, but when I drop to 18 I don't seem to get it.

 

[tnt56]

IMHO. It's because of the lower nic level. If I go to the 24mg I don't vape near as much but I wind up with the nic fits at night. That's why I'm trying to cut back. I'll still keep the higher level for THOSE TIMES. But I'm trying to taper down some.
It was a constant 1 hour drive vaping all the way. Never let it down unless I really had to, Like traffic or something .

 

[Susaz]

Whenever I'm at home I'm a freight train. I do take the extra nic if I'm craving or craved the night before. Sometimes I can vape 6 ml while some others I barely finish 2.4 ml. I think that's why my needs differ so much. Thanks all!

I dropped down to 12 mg for a bit to see how it would go. Usually keep it between 18 and 16. Went to 24 with a disposable a couple weeks ago. My goodness could of swore I had that buzz. Kind of like having a cigarette after not having one for a while. The lower nicotine before bed makes sense. Thanks for passing that on. Might try it and see if I sleep better.

At first when I just started I would like low-nicotine, around 11mg, now I need 24mg or I just do not like it. Hated the throat hit at first, now it is a must!

When I started vaping, 36 mg was fine. After a while, I had to drop to 24 mg as I became
accustomed to it.

I think I have more effects from the nic if:

I'm tired
I haven't had enough liquid
I haven't had enough to eat
I am vaping faster and harder than normal and I don't realize it
I have taken other meds that cause jitters
I'm jazzed up on caffeine
I'm fighting off something - like a cold (you don't always know this)

I not only get the jitters, I get hot flashes, I get itchy and I start sneezin'. Those are dead
give aways for me.

i diy and made a couple of mistakes thanks to my nic needs. first order was for a premixed 50/50 24mg unlfavored nic. it was too strong but i only bought 60ml. then i bought 24mg nic 100%pg and did my own 50/50 mix for 12mg strength. next was 500ml of 18mg nic 100% pg thinking 10mg would be fine but i miss the throat hit, and im vaping alot more because the nic is so low. every morning i have to hit the pv nonstop to get the nic i need. today i bought me some 100mg nic, pg, vg, no more regretful purchases.so even if my nic needs change im all good. i just wish i did this at the start and would recommend everyone that diy to do the same.

I cover that two ways: raising te voltage and taking a primer puff. Kanger T2 have so much vapor that flavor is sometimes lost. I have no problem with taste on the right voltage.

Most days I have zero TH but I look for taste and good flavor first. If my vape is flavorful most of the time I get satisfied.

Vaping too much is one of the downsides of vaping itself. I have to force myself to put it down every once in a while specially when I'm vaping high nic!

No fluctuations for me, I vaped 12mg from the start and I still vape 12mg over three years later.
But I have added WTA juice into the mix for those times when I am stressed and want the relaxing effect of the MAOIs.

I am pretty weird though, so what I do is not really relevant to anyone else.
I smoked for 27 years, but only averaged 7 cigarettes per day, so I was never really a nicotine junkie.


Also, I could easily go with zero nicotine if I wanted to.
I just don't want to, as I feel there are justifiable health benefits from moderate nicotine use.

I vape less than 1ml per day now, and usually much less.
Sometimes I don't even take my first vape until late afternoon.
