The process of decreasing nic

[VapHer]

So this is in the future but •eventually• I plan to taper down my nic to 0 nic.

I was a 1.5 ppd smoker who has been vaping for 3 weeks and still smoking approx 4-5 analogs per day.

Set a complete quit day for the day after we get back from our cruise and 3 months thereafter being tapered down to 0 nic e liquid. I'm at 18-24mg nic now.

What are your experiences with nic tapering?

Started at 18, had to go to 24 before the cravings diminished enough to stop smoking. Over the last 2 years I've gradually worked it down to 6.

I started at 36 mg 2 months ago today and haven't smoked since. I was a 1-1.5 ppd smoker prior to that. Went to 24 mg after a couple of weeks and have been dropping a level every few weeks since. I am vaping mostly 12-16 mg depending on the juice and just ordered a bunch of 10mg. I am going to keep on this path, as I haven't had any cravings regardless of the drops, and I don't find myself vaping significantly more either. It's weird. I am hoping to be down to 6 within the next month and see what happens. I am starting to think that my particular addiction is a lot more psychological than physical. After smoking for 17 years, I am kicking myself for not doing this sooner. Also, the lower nic levels are a LOT more pleasant on the throat. Good luck!

Started at 12mg and I am still here 9 months later. I did vape 6mg for a month or so and apart from the lack of TH was completely fine for me. You may have to expect to vape more for a short period after lowering your nic level.

For me I just didn't want the higher nic after awhile. I used mostly 12 to quit, stayed there quite awhile, then went to 6 and have been there for a year with an occasional 12, but now i want more zero nic with 6 being my high nic vape. It just sort of happens all on it's own. I find setting dates is sometimes hard to do and stick to, but if you follow the need, you will find you don't need much nic to be satisfied. But if you need higher nic to stay of ciggies by all means use it! bnrk

I tried 6ml but found that it just makes me chain vape all day long. Im back to 18ml and I dont vape as much. Im not scared of my nic addiction. Ive done some research and found that nicotine really isnt that bad for you. Im not going to start drinking decaf coffee either. Although Ive found that I dont drink as much coffee since I started vaping.
