I just started vaping a couple of weeks ago and quit smoking on the spot. Previous to that, I lurked in the forums to become informed. As most people, my first awareness about electronic cigarettes amounted to rare sightings of e-cigs that resemble cigarettes. I decided to quit and I was looking for tools which would help to accomplish it, having attempted a couple of times before and having gone back. I began my research and came accross this forum. I became more curious. I also became aware of all the new "vaping" culture emerging, including its own jargon. The information was overwhelming, needless to say. I wanted to see what the inhalation with an e-cig was like. I stopped by a mall and took a drag. I knew the products offered at kiosk were of inferior quality and overpriced, yet, upon inhaling I could immediately visualize supplanting my cigarettes with e-cigs. The drags I took made me cough, although I am a long time smoker; I also felt the nicotine kick. The flavor was mediocre, but by now I knew the endless variety available online. After spending days researching this forum and the many vendor sites mentioned within, I ordered my KGO from Hoosier's. I waited anxiously for it to arrive. I also ordered some cappuccino from Backwoods Brew. I vaped for the first time...and smoked for the last time. That simple. No pangs or cumpulsion to smoke cigarettes again. My last pack of cigarettes, half-full, sat abandoned and forgotten on the table.
I continued to do research. It just simply sounds too good to be true. Deriving the pleasure and fix of smoking without its harm. I read all the articles I could find and learned about how few actual (serious) scientific studies have been carried out. Still, all the information I could gather did not show any serious harm in the act of vaping. I still wish there would be more information and hope that further studies are done soon. All the same, I believe that personal vaporizers cannot possibly be as harmful as cigarettes.
I want to thank the people on these forums for all the information they provide. So far, replacing cigarettes has proven a blessing. I continue to recommend it to those I know.
