I get to re-experience the quitting sensation from chain smoking. Started vaping cut my cigarette consumption down by half at first, then in just a week or two I don't even want a cigarette. I could chain smoke 4-6 cigarettes in the morning, 2 cigarettes on each of my breaks, 3-4 cigarettes on my lunch break, 4 on the way home and another 7 or more at the end of the day. Also I would straight chain smoke for hours on the weekend. That's a ton of nicotine. Id wanna smoke before 2 o clock break. That feeling is just gone now. One 5ml tank of 3mg juice being only 15mg of nicotine, and the fact I can't even smoke that much juice on my break has completely limited my nicotine consumption to the point of switching entirely to the vape. It works. I remember last time having more energy too. The sweet liquid has also taken away my sugar cravings, but if I'm hungry it triggers my appetite. It helped I already had an awesome rig set up from the first time, but It works. I definitely prefer low mg sub on to those nic salt vapes, I think the nic salts are what made me relapse to smoking again last time because i was consuming way more concentrated nicotine.

Sounds as though your having issues with getting your liquid/juice right.

An idea may be to just go unflavoured for a short while, so you can get the VG/PG ratio and Nicotine to your liking.

VG gives a much softer throat hit, produces more vapour, doesn't carry flavours as well and is thicker so some coils have trouble wicking it well. But it can be thinned with Distilled Water.

PG gives more of a throat hit, produces less vapour, carries flavours very well and is much thinner than VG so it wicks extremely well.

Freebase Nicotine is absorbed differently and more slowly into your system, Nicotine Salts are more quickly absorbed into your system in comparison.

Freebase and Salts can be mixed together, so tailored to your need.


Once you work on these you can then introduce flavours back again.
