Welcome!!
It may not be an easy transition from smoking to
vaping. Everyone is different, and have different approaches. The vast majority of people who try to quit smoking with
vaping ARE SUCCESSFUL.
Myself, I was a 30 year plus smoker. I had tried all of the traditional methods to stop smoking: Patches, gum, lozenges, hypnosis, prescription drugs. All failed.
I had tried a disposable "cigalike" from the convenience store. Wasn't great, but I knew this had potential for success. I did my research and got an ECF recommended starter kit from a reputable vendor.
A Good Starter's Setup for a Beginner Vaper
I knew I'd probably still get uncomfortable cravings for a smoke when I started vaping, so I allowed myself a few cigs a day. I vaped on my e-cig at will. When I got a cig craving, I vaped more. If that didn't relieve the craving, I allowed myself half of a cigarette, and saved the second half for the next bad craving.
Those second half smokes tasted bad, but that actually helped me to quit. By the end of the week, I began to prefer the e-cig and not really want the cigarette. When my last pack was empty, I didn't really want to buy another.
Good luck. YOU CAN DO THIS!!
