Never looking back

[Coffeegirlct]

Hey.
My name is Beth, I am 40 years old, smoked cancer sticks for 30ish years.
I tried everything to quit with no help till I discovered vaping.
I tried cig-a-likes and hated them, they never tasted like a cigarette to me and never produced enough vapor to make me feel like I had been smoking.

My friend had quit using a vape pen (Innokin iClear 30s and a Vision Spinner 2)
I went to the site she ordered from and got my own kit and within a week of getting it, I was off the sticks...

My last cigarette was 1/29/15 and I have had ZERO cravings for one since then.

I am so in love with vaping that I have started looking into making my own juice!

Well done Beth !! , similar to me - I'm 42 - smoked for way to long - Since the age of 14.
Tried various times, with various things - with zero sucess. Ive bought a couple of ecigs but never quite got the
thing cigarette gave me - althought I hated the taste, suppose it was an addiction.

I wasnt even thinking of giving up - but seen a guy at work vaping on a kanger subtank and large mec mod battery,
must say I did laugh - it was huge, but still had to ask for a go once I seen the smoke it produced (my old ecigs didnt do that)
So I had a go ...and thought WOW !! - I could stop smoking with this.

So that night I bit the bullet and bought a similar setup and havnt smoked or craved for the last 5 weeks, 2 days.
Ive started making my own e-liquid, unsucessfully so far hahaha - but will defintley get some recipies from here and try
then - probably save some money

Congrats! I started making my own juice and building my own coils in an attempt to save money, however I just use the savings to justify buying more new gear! Such is the life of a vaper!

Congratulations to you on quitting. Don't beat yourself up if you do have the odd one as everyone is different. CHEERS!

 

[underwhelmd]

Congrats on Quitting! I was a longtime smoker myself so when people post that they quit after being addicted like I was for years, I can relate and be happy for them too. cheers!

 

[Coffeegirlct]

Thanks for the encouraging words guys. I do tend to put all my savings over cigs back into vaping. I currently have 5 batteries and 12 tanks along with backup atomizers for all of them. Additionally I've got about 20 different flavors of juice lol. Every day I crave a different flavor lol today is Irish Cream lol
