Newbie and need advice please!

Hello Tadpoles. Welcome to the forum.

vaping made me cough at first. We all are different, but it took me a full day to figure out the inhale, as compared to the cigarette inhalation.

Many of us succeeded in quitting cigarettes through a period of dual use, continuing to smoke while experimenting with vape flavors, equipment, nic strength, pg/vg ratios, the element of "throat hit".

I don't have all the answers that will apply specifically to you. I can only encourage you to keep at it until you get the vape that is right for you, so satisfying that one day you say "I like vaping better, so I'm gonna quit cigarettes". For me, it was about six weeks of continuing cigarettes while experimenting with vaping, but once I decided to take the leap, I quit the cigarettes in one day.

Keep in mind, you're the boss of you.

Thanks so much for sound advice! I’ve been given so much I can’t reply to them all but will post a thanks all soon.
I bought my mod with a freebie bottle ( blueberry 6mg ) not good. Corner shop for a grape shot. Even worse!! Had a word with a n other as a last resort and he recommended salts @10 mg. Totally different world! I am still smoking but I’ve cut that in half already as the brand and nicotine level suits me perfectly . I’ll get there I’m sure! Thanks for everything!!

You're doing fine. It took me a couple of months to completely quit. I didn't know it at the time, but the juice I got was unflavored (18mg) They stopped selling that so I asked the guy at the smoke shop "just give me something fruit flavored" He handed me some dusty bottle that just said fruit... it tasted like laundry detergent. I threw it out. I suspect he knew I was inexperienced and a sucker (I was) I ended up ordering juices online (found a place that offered a great deal for new customers... but they are gone now )
