Random Thought

[morgan69]

So im sitting here thinking and a random thought came into my head,Is everyone who Vapes an ex smoker or are there now people who never smoked and now vape.If there is anyone who never smoked and now vapes i will be intresterd to hear why.Also would be great to hear others thoughts on this.Beacause in the same thought,I used to play alot of PC games and in those terms vaping would be the next level of smoking kinda of like a upgrade,lol.

Funny you should mention this. I was just talking about this with somebody earlier tonight.

I am an ex-smoker. My wife has never smoked in her life. Both of her grandfathers died from emphysema, and her dad will probably die from it as well. Needless to say, she doesn't care for cigarettes much.

But she likes the smell of some of my more aromatic juices so much that she's interested in taking it up.

I mix my own juice so I can hook her up with some 0 mg stuff. She tried the cinnamon vape I mixed up for her, but it has a bit of a bite to it (it's made from real cinnamon oil so it tingles your lips), and she didn't care for it too much. Think I'll try giving her some coffee next.

There are some who didnt smoke who took it up. Mainly those who liked Hookah but didnt want to go through all the hassle of a hookah when they could have flavored vapor instead. Of course most who didn't smoke just use 0mg nicotine juices.

There are a few vapers that have never smoked, but for the most part vapers are individuals who are trying to get away from cigs, pipes, chews, etc.

Some people switch for health reasons, others for financial reasons.

I don't know the reason a non-smoker would start a nicotine addiction with an e-cig.

If I didn't smoke, I wouldn't be vaping. The less you inhale besides clean air, the better off your lungs are. I know a non-smoker who has emphysema from frying fish for years in a restaurant and inhaling the cooking vapors. His doctor suggested he close the fish place and open a pizza place. Clean air is best.

That said, vaping is light years better than cigarette smoke, IMO.

If I never smoked I would have never vaped. It is reiterated in every news story that the risks of e cigs are unknown and could possibly carry some sort of risk. Why add the risk if it is unnecessary. I vape because it is a healthier alternative to smoking.

On the other hand if curiosity leads someone to ecigs rather than smoking I consider that a win.

I wouldn't have picked up vaping except to quit analogs. I tell my kids (who are fascinated by it) that it is a way to stop smoking cigarettes; not a fun new habit to acquire.

I kind of hate that it's becoming kind of hipster; people who might not otherwise "do" nicotine will start vaping just to be chic and end up with a habit that is (although far healthier than analogs) not great for you.

I told my eldest that if she believes that it's ok to start snorting ...... because it's better than shooting it, then it's ok to start vaping because it's better than smoking.

oops...sorry if I broke the "no drug talk" rule; totally meant in an anti-drug way.

My brother was never an analog smoker but liked hookah. Now he loves vaping and his liquid has a small mg of nic in them. I myself am an ex smoker and always woundered the same about this question.

i think people that vape without being a ex smoker is fine, but i think itll fizzle out for them. For smokers, its definitely a neccesity of having a cig experience recreated as closely as possible.
