Quitting has never been so easy!

[packratshow]

I smoked from 16 to 29 and then quit cold turkey quite by accident for 7 years. The whole time I dreamed about smoking, the psychological part of it is the worst! I started up again after a stressful period last December and hated myself everyday for it. I resigned to being a smoker again.

I found the Envy disposable at a Citgo gas station for 10 bucks and cut down from at least a pack a day to 1 or 2 smokes almost immediately. In an act of desperation, I bought the Envy bliss for 50 bucks(that's another story) because I didn't want to smoke anymore!

It's a massive amount of research to figure these things out but I'm already trying to spread the word!

Welcome to the forum! You've done better than I did, I could never quit. So, how are you doing with the Envy bliss?

Congrats and welcome to ECF. You've come to the right place.

I agree so far. Granite it has only been like 8 hours, but using my 510, the cravings aren't even there yet.

I looked up e-cigs and watched reviews for over a week, tried a Blu disposable, then jumped on a 510. So far so good.

I'm still baffled how I exactly I quit the first time! I had a horrible flu or infection or something for a week and didn't want to smoke (or do anything else) the whole time. When I got out of it, I never started again.

I don't really like the Bliss. The disposable Envy Delight was so good in taste, pull and throat hit. I wish I could just recharge and refill it! The Bliss (which I think is an M401 model) is so hard to get any hit on, I've resorted to directly inhaling straight to the lungs. Glad I found out about refilling, buying 5 new carts for 13 bucks is pretty expensive.

Thanks for welcoming me, one thing I've gotten from reading all this is that everyone seemed so nice and inviting. I spoke with Greg with Elixir Liquids here in Houston and he told me about the vape get together upcoming on the 4th just blocks away from my work and I've already go a few friends who want to go with me!

P.S. Swedishfish.. yay NJ! I went to a place in South Jersey that is pretty good for e-cigs if your down south?

The disposables truly are a gateway drug to vaping! Wish I could have done more research but I really didn't want to buy anymore analogs.

I was just making sure I could stick with vaping, so I tried the Blue. But in the meantime, I watched a ton of reviews on youtube, read lots of sites on maintaince and info.

I was ready when I went to make my purchase today...

I hear ya, I am 13 days smoke-free today! Besides now, the longest I have ever 'quit' before after 20+ years of smoking was a total of 7 days cold turkey...and it was the worst week of my life! Haha! I hated everything and everyone, couldn't sleep at night, didn't want to eat, etc. It was like my whole world was taken from me. Since I started vaping, I have had no desire whatsoever to smoke! It is just friggin amazing! I come from a family where it seems EVERYONE smokes. I get called 'The Ecig Preacher' in my family now because I always try an educate and convert them to vaping...

The only negative comments I get are "you don't know what's in that stuff". I let them know that actually I do know the ingredients, what I really don't know are the bizarre ingredients that they put in analogs!
