I am very able to go without the analogs... but in social situations (especially where I am at) it is extremely difficult not to smoke analogs (and rude). It is also much cheaper to use analogs here than (digitals?) E-cigs. The one thing that I have noticed is the taste... in the past when I put down analogs, and picked them up later, I would love the taste. I don't like the taste of analogs at all any more, every time I smoke one it tastes disgusting. I think when I return to the states I will have a much better time of it, especially if I find some other people that vape.
