Tobacco Lover

[Fredman1]

I'm very proud to say, i'm COMPLETELY over smoking. The son still smokes and whenever he's here, I ask him to roll me one...just to prove it to myself... again. I smoke half of it and toss it. It really don't appeal to me anymore. Never in a thousand years thought i'll feel this way about it. The stinking taste lingers in my mouth all day...or until I go brush my teeth. The final test is after I tossed the stinky, I pull up my vape loaded with tobacco I extracted myself....Bliss.

Looking for tobacco Flavor Recipes.

Hangsen RY1 is a good tobacco base.
More than 150 different tobacco concentrates later, I settled on it as the most "neutral" and "true" tobacco taste...for me.
I'm sure Heather Heavenly Vape's Heavenly Tobacco will appeal to you...give it a try.

Or take this time when there still is a supply to titrate down to 0 nic. If done very very slowly it's not that hard to do.

Here's the thing with quitting nicotine. You need to be in the right headspace. If you are stressed out already, quitting nicotine is a doomsday sentence. If you are the type to lay around and do nothing, quitting nicotine will nearly kill you. Your chemical balance is so tightly tied to your social statuses, your socialization, your security of self, your self esteem, your food intake, your amount of successful sexual pursuits... But because you're a nicotine addict, YOUR normal is dependent on a steady supply of nicotine. You drop that supply out and your body essentially acts as if all the other apes in your troop beat the out of you and cast you to the corners of the jungle. It's been shown that deep humiliation, or loss of social status, actually give us brain damage. That's exactly what your brain believes is happening when you quit nicotine, lol. It thinks you're a complete loser. So if you want to quit nicotine, you need to think and act like you're winning.

While you put it in a cute and humorous way, that's really very sad! You live in a beautiful corner of the world where nature abounds yet you resign yourself to inhaling poison daily. Well... At least you're not smoking anymore.

In the early days of this forum it felt like everyone's goal was to get off of nicotine and maybe even stop vaping. Has this concept changed over the years?

pretty much. yeup. there aren't many here lookin to quit. i know for the majority of my time served alive I haven't wanted to quit. & when I do want to quit, quitting quickly changes my mind.

Nicotine -- though addictive -- is essentially harmless in the concentrations inhaled when one vapes (or smokes, for that matter, the poisons in tobacco smoke being other compounds). VG, PG, and flavorings are mostly harmless. One inhales more poisons simply breathing urban air; air quality tests have shown this.

Nicotine is NOT nearly as "dangerous" as it's made out to be (sugar and alcohol for instance is far worse).
Big Tobacco started vilifying it as a distraction from the real poisons they add. The rest of ignorant world gladly followed. Not saying it's harmless...just that it's not nearly as addictive as it's made out to be.

what yall need is some stinky stinky. get you a big ol litre of some RY4 and lay down on your couch and vape until it has no taste. Til you done' becomed 1 with the joose. Then go to bed and see what you're craving in the morning.

Good ol' RY4.

This is what I needed with some diluted Sahara 0 Nic, in 2ml 16mm Dvarw, 28-30Awg, 2mm 1.7 - 2.0, medium+ cotton wick stuffed base @7.6 Watts:
closest Draw To A Cigarette
Caveat this is based on my cigarette smoking preferences & taste. Smaller Drip Tip Bores for me are essential to mimic a cigarette draw combined with Lower watts

When I first came into this forum I wanted to stop smoking. It was a natural process for me to ween myself off nicotine. I can't speak for the forum but it appears Vaping has obtained varying status among diverse people. The relationship people have with nicotine is very personal. Unless asked, I have no opinion outside my own relationship & experience as related to smoking. Its not good for me. I enjoy the mechanical tinkering component of vaping it can be interesting & fun. I Have to be aware & careful of potential to compulsively procure tools collect equipment & supply $$$$$$ this can get out of hand real quick without realizing it.
