Nic fits aren't nearlyas intense anymore

[Audio Weasel]

Is anyone else running into this? It used to be that smoking was the FIRST thing I did in the morning, because I woke up with the shakes and desperate for it. Been vaping for 2 and a half weeks and it's not like that now. I mean, I am vaping 24mg so it's not like my nicotine consumption has lessened any yet.

Your desire for nicotine will steadily decrease as you continue vaping. Like you, when I was a smoker, I had to have a hit first thing to get me going for the day. I can go for an hour or two now in the morning before I grab my PV for a hit, and I'm not craving that first blast of nic when I get up.

I am down to 6mg nic now (started at 18mg) and I still need to hit it first thing in the morning but mostly because I look forward to it. It's such a mental thing after decades of smoking. But during the day the urges are not strong. And the lower I get my nic, the less desperate the urges are.

Well I am completely new, this is my first post, and I don't even have my gear yet. I must say I am looking forward to not having to go outside in whatever weather first thing in the morning.

I share the same experience. I can even sit in a grueling 3 hour meeting without climbing up the walls. Plus, I can always take a batroom break it hit the PV as I hit the head..

I have found the same thing. Just this morning I got all the way to work (almost an hr from alarm to reaching work), before I realized I hadn't even reached for my PV . Used to be I would fumble for my analogs before I even put my glasses on . Really really glad I found E Cigs.

As for me, I could not drive anywhere without first lighting up a cig. I've only been vaping since April 1st, but I no longer feel the need to smoke, or even vape, while driving. I do reach for my pv as soon as I wake up in the morning though, but that's probably because I'm excited that I don't have to get dressed and go outside to do it. (Can't smoke in the house.)

Not only do I not need my nic fix in the morning, but I can go for long periods of time through the day without needing ot hit the PV if I am occupied. I am taking far fewer "smoke breaks" during the day. I vape like a fiend when I do pick up the PV but I can put it down much longer than I did the smokes.

3 months in, and I still grab my pv in the AM and don't put it down much. I did go from 24mg to 20 though~

Exactly the same here. I turn up the tv, watch the news and vape like crazy for 10 to 20 minutes before actually getting up.
I did notice today I wasn't vaping as much during work as I normally do.
I just dropped my nic from 18ml to 12 ml.

Like everyone else, the very first thing I did EVERY SINGLE MORNING and WITHOUT EXCEPTION was have that morning smoke.
It was inconceivable to me that this could ever change, and was expected to be a given for the rest of my life.

That was the only smoke of the day that I absolutely needed to have.
Now, almost 22 months into vaping, and I often go until midday before reaching using my electronic cigarettes.

Like you, I couldn't start my day without first having a cigarette...now, I still do that, but with vaping, the "nic fit" subsides. I wish i could describe exactly how I feel after vaping...I guess I just feel "evened out", a little more mellow, without the heaviness in the lungs. To me, it's a good feeling, especially with knowing that I am doing something better for myself to satisfy the addiction.

Almost the same here at 2 weeks. I don't feel the need to vape right away when I wake up. Although I still do with a 0mg cart; just like the feeling.

 

[Mabel]

It is the best feeling in the morning to wake up and not have to smoke before I can even be social with anyone. I use the 6mg juices mostly but do have the higher ones for the really stressful days.

 

[ardelleg]

I have been vaping for 2 1/2 months and noticed the lack of urgency after about 2 weeks.... Certainly didn't expect that...
but I like it....

That's how I am so far also. I wake up and get my coffee and go to my pv but not because I'm jonesin. Then again I always had to have my coffee 1st even with regular cigs and I never woke up with the shakes or anything. My withdrawals always seemed more mental than physical.
