Its been a crazy week for me. I have not touched a tobacco product in almost a week. I still can't believe what this product has done for me. 16 years at the mercy of a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. At the same time life is hard as hell. I am in an economic .... storm at the moment, that has not my biggest speed bump in life for sure. It is difficult none the less. Yen and Yang I suppose, just ready for more yang! Anywho, thanks for the site, it has been a great refuge from tobacco and issues.

For those just starting out, or thinking about it, here is a short list of tough things I have experienced over the last week that would normally lead any quitter to the pack again:

1) Drinking, i have been drunk, sad and happy, and just buzzed but no need to grab the pack
2) Economic situations (as mentioned above)
3) Writing a good song on the guitar, it always makes you want to smoke
4) Listening to a good song, sad, happy, or otherwise
5) Upset, for a multitude of reasons
6) Boredom
7) Family issues, to each there own
8) A nice day?:)
9) A crappy day?:)

I suppose my point is just that it can be done, and without all the scheduling, withdraw, and bull.... that might come from just trying to quit through other means. The not smoking part has been the easiest part of the week, and the most rewarding. I also got my buddy who smoke 2+ packs a day for 20 years (started when he was 12) off with ecigs for 2 days and counting. So "vape it forward" or what ever that movie was.

Vape on,


Brenner

Proud of you!

These e-cigarettes are more than most people think they are. Most people think they are "fake" cigarettes, not realizing that they can deliver nicotine without the smoke. Unfortunately, e-cigarettes are not getting the attention they deserve, and the attention they get seems to be mostly negative.

While I'm a kind of skeptical guy, I tried one, and it satisfied me for 5 hours before I had to puff a real cigarette. That's only because I only had one battery and it needed charging! Next, I bought another battery, and then most of my problems were solved.

I haven't had a puff on a real cigarette in almost two weeks, and I feel absolutely 1000 times better than I did when I started smoking e-cigarettes three weeks ago.

All of us sharing here will help all of us get rid of the smoke in our lives!

Nietian, way to go! I was worried about running out of batts or whatever and kinda ordered to much ..... but found what worked well for me. I can't wait for the 2 week mark. Thank god for no more smoke in our lives!

Hey, no such thing as too much! If you bought "too many" batteries, that just means that in the long run you'll have a spare in case one dies...they do die eventually after so much use and charging. And if it's "too many" cartridges or atties or liquid, well, you'll use it eventually. And if it takes forever, at least you might be stocked up in case of a ban ;)
