Still fairly a newbie, but loving this forum and all the help I'm getting, ONE MORE QUESTION FOR YOU ALL

[cheche518]

Hi its me again, let me ask you a question, if you vape alot I usually vape alot during the day at work, and so enjoying it...I vape at home watching TV, instead of my usual going outside to have a cig....but can the nicotine actually cause you to be sleepless and/or be a stimulant. Should I not vape to close to bedtime.

What are your thoughts.

Also all the water is helping me with the dehydration that this liquid VG causes and my throat is slowly getting back to normal although I clear it constantly because of not smoking and my lungs cleaning out.

Let me know y our thoughts.

In my expierences I have not had a problem. I vape alot. About 5 mls a day. I sleep like a baby.

Yes!! I have to vape low level nic at night because I like sleeping.... I vape 18mg during the day and 8-12 at night. Nicotine is a strong stimulant.

This needn't be your last question - ask whenever you want. As for nic and sleeping, in my practice it seems to be similar to caffine. Some people can drink coffee up until bedtime and sleep soundly, others couldn't take a bit after 10:00am and expect to sleep. It is often recommended to some to reduce nic (read smoking) before bed.

I tend to be a bit more sensitive to nic contents and, as classwife will confirm, have been known to be up until 5:00am. When I am trying (or thinking) I usually switch to a lower level and usually a "softer" or "sweeter" flavor as bedtime approaches. If you are having trouble getting ot sleep, you might give that a try.

I agree with Bradder.... vaping has not affected my sleep, but caffeine definitely does! I guess it is different for different people as my roomie can sleep after coffee.... I guess it all depends on how it is affecting YOU!

Good Question Chec..

Sometimes nicotine actually helps me fall asleep. ( I think..)

Sometimes Ill get really tired after tooting for a good while.
Other times Ill get wired.
With many of lifes other variables being about the same on any giving evening.

I would say vape whenever you have the urge to... That same urge that would have caused you to seek an analog.

I used to finish an analog right before I got in bed. As part of sort of a psuedo ritual.

I havent had the urge to toot my PV in the same manner with any consistancy.

Do a little trial and error with your vaping times... Either way, right before you go to sleep you will be better off then you were when you were smoking

Peace and God Bless.

I vape 24mg all day and when I'm about to go to bed, I'll usually take a few more vapes, of the same 24mg and happily go to sleep. But keep in mind, when I was using Analogs, I smoked almost 2 packs a day.

haven't had any issues sleeping, although i've definitely stayed up late reading the forums and hanging out on vapetv a time or two (every damned night) since I started. as long as you're not experiencing any nic buzz symptoms you should be good to go. welcome to the forum btw!
