Hello community, I've been avidly vaping for awhile now and used it to cut down and quit analogs. In the last few weeks I lost my apartment and had to move in with my girlfriend, lost my job, and I have a tooth that's been bothering me for awhile now and no dental to get it taken care of, recently my girl slipped up and bought a small bag of rolling tobacco and some tubes. The other day she decided to quit for good, and she's been doing okay, but when she asked me to throw out said tobacco I couldn't resist the urge...for the post few days I've been dealing with the smell 1st thing when I wake up and it's what I smell when I fall asleep next to her. It drove me nuts and I caved in. I feel like I need to be a Buddhist monk in order to withstand being around the smell of a smoking cigarette. Since the 28th I've been doing good, I've even been around people in the process of smoking and ever since I upped my nic in my juice back up to 11mg I've been doing fine. I'm actually going up to buy a mod soon to help me justify vaping in my mind (crazy right?). I figure why not sick with the vaping as long as I'm spend mad money on it.
So I fell off but I am back on now.

I get what you're saying with the investment; If you've put that much money into something, then it would just be wasteful not to use it 
Interesting you could go back like that tho. I switched from hookah rather than cigs which even when I first started smoking I never noticed much of a tobacco taste... Loaded up a bowl last week since some friends were over and wanted a hookah, I took like one hit off it and nearly gagged. And that's no where near as nasty tasting as a cigarette since it doesn't actually cherry... But congratulations for switching back to vaping

we all slip up (i wont even bring up the Lime Jello debacle of 1997, all those poor orphans), but your not giving up on vaping and that's what counts.
I've slipped up a few times myself, I'm one of those that can pick up smoking again without gagging. Best advice I have is this: don't beat yourself up about it, we're not perfect. If we were perfect we wouldn't have smoked in the first place.
Good job getting back, but do yourself a favor and get that tooth fixed! I've heard of people dying from teeth that have become abscess!! It's nothing to play around with!
I feel your pain, Im right there with ya, I also had to stop working due to medical problem, lost my house and had to move in with boyfriend, but it's killing me that he supported my cigarette habit for a year now, so I decided to stop the cigarettes and start vaping, much cheaper so far, but I still have the guilty. Good thing he said if I stop smoking he will too, I guess our hubby's want us around for a lot longer, LOL, that's my justification on the situation, so it lightens the burden I feel. Kudos to you and best wishes to you both
The key is "back on now."
Stress can certainly be a push back toward old, familiar habits. Upping the nic can definitely help there. But "falling off the wagon" isn't the end of the world, as long as we keep getting back on!
