My husband decided last week that we needed to try to quit smoking (again). He is wanting to push himself for a Major bike race in Oct. And my health, which has been declining for years had gone from bad to worse in this last year and smoking was not helping. Even though I am close to a true diagnosis (hopefully) and was going to have to quit, I told him that i was going to refuse to quit this time. I would support him in anyway i could though, and he knew it.
After the last time we failed to quit, I had realized that in all honesty I enjoy smoking way too much to give it up. I couldn't even last a day without 3-5 (even while taking classes and medications). So i gave up, but would still support him while he tried.
A few days later a friend told me about the e-ciggs and their success rates, but they were stupidly expensive. Then we noticed laterthat day that Xhale O2 was selling them @ 7-11 for $20. After some light discussion, we went and bought two starter kits and I started the internet research on e-ciggs and came across your forum here. All the while hoping to eventually be able to replace smoking for vaping. After the first day i was down to 3 analogs. I was so impressed that i went crazy reading up on the forums here and even asked a stupid question in chat out of pure laziness. By day three I was lighting a smoke taking 1 drag and putting it out because of how aweful it was. I did that all day and never made it through the entire smoke. Today is Day 4 and I am officially smoke free with no desire. The e-ciggs have completely replaced analog ciggarettes.
(Obviously by the rambling on and on in this message I am dealing with some withdraw issues from a choice to take a decrease in Nicotine along with other harmful chems but honestly I am finding the strange mental status to be quite amusing.) I have enough medicines to take every day it is nice to be cleaning out the un-neccessary poisons.
ANYWAYS, during my research on these forums,I found some posts about madvapes.com and after checking it out and making calculations of smoke vs. vape and saw that vaping can easily cost 1/4 of what it costs per month in Ciggarettes after making the initial start-up purchases of supplies and liquids. So I placed my first order and bought an Esmoke 510 kit, some fun flavored juices, and a few extra pieces that will wear out. (it all arrived today and I must say we are extremely pleased with all of it). It is a very nice and simple set-up and will be more than adequate for my needs. I even discovered that an old glasses case makes a great place to cary the pieces needed for portability.
So as the title says, Thank you. All of you for making these forums what they are so that people like my husband and I can go learn the information, tips and tricks needed to be able to make an educated decision that is going to make our lives, and the lives of our children much better.
