I received a Yeti starter kit from The Smoke Safe last Saturday (high nicotine, ordered Thursday) along with flavor juice pak from Juicy Liquid, began using it as soon as batts charged, and haven't had an analog since... I immediately and completely ended a 54-year 2-pack-a-day smoking habit with ecigs and your valuable tips and encouraging words! And the pleasure I get from
vaping is more than equal to smoking because no more cigarette odor on me, my clothes, my hair, my car, my house; no more trying to cover up tiny burn holes in all my favorite clothes; no more ashes everywhere like the residue of fallout from some small volcano constantly erupting in my vicinity; no more searching for lighters or matches and then singeing off my eyebrows when I finally use the burner on the stove to light up; no more cleaning the black tarry gunk off ashtrays while trying to ignore the fact that my lungs look the same; no more guilt that I'm compromising the health of all living things within 1000 yards of me when I light up; no more ducking into alleys or around buildings or behind barriers or into the furthest corners of backyards in all kinds of weather just to have a few puffs in a place that won't offend anyone; NO MORE ANALOGS!!! My non-smoking friends and family, including my 96-yr-old mother, are celebrating my switch to vaping, assuring me there's no odor and no reason for me not to use it in their homes and cars, and have all tried it to see what it's like (with no ill effects). For years, I've been slow to wake up in the mornings, more than a little groggy until I'd been up a few hours. Since Wednesday, I've been waking up early, immediately wide awake, feeling like getting up and being active... not running a marathon, just moving around, starting my day, totally unusual for me. I seem to be sleeping harder, fewer dreams, not waking up during the night at all. I can't say for sure that it's due to giving up analogs for vaping but that's the only thing that I've changed in my life so I have to suspect that's the cause. I plan to continue vaping; it's pleasurable and relaxing, easy to do, affordable, and I have no urge at all to return to smoking analogs. Thanks to all of you for your help. The online forums are so valuable to those of us new to vaping.
I know, I know. I was too hard on Miss Manners. :roll: But I don't think it was only my nerves being frayed ...
