Tried an analog today

[tarless]

I found a pack at my allotment and gave one a go just to try. It was awful and I felt like I had a mouth full of chemicals afterwards so I threw the rest of the pack away. I'm not letting this one ruin my smoke free days as it wasn't a need and was just out of curiosity more than anything. That's the only pack I have hanging around so that's definitely it for me.

50 odd days and counting.

I did the exact same thing! I was just curious so I asked a friend for one. I took one drag...disgusting!! I don't understand how I found that enjoyable for 15 years!!

Congratulations! You can officially call yourself a non-smoker now

I do the same thing when I am drinking... I'll ask a friend for one, light it up and take a puff, and immediately put it out... So nasty... LoL

 

[FogHawg]

I did the same thing - one hit & BLECH!!!

 

[Big Screen D]

Had the same reaction when I tried one out of curiosuty a year ago or so. Funny thing is I had no qualms that I'd take up smoking again before I bought that pack, and the thought of smoking another has never again crossed my mind.

And to think our benevolent nanny state wants to ban e-cigs. .......

Not me, 7 months and NO desire to just take a drag - I'm done

Just reading this and thinking about the taste of an analog makes me sick.

My experience was a lil diffrent with the same ending. I will never smoke again!! vaping is so sweet...lol
Like 2 months in after I started vaping a C2 came apart in my pocket... I was so pist that I didn't have anything to vape for a few hours...I seen a friend smoking and gave into temptation, I couldn't even smoke half of the cigarette, It was the nastiest thing I ever tasted. It made me nauseous to a point that I was having stomach spasms...It was so hard for me to belive that I was smoking close to 2 packs a day for 20 plus years..I tried to figure out in my mind if that was what I tasted the first time I took a pull of a cigarette...

Ha, I hope your friends don't get ...... that you wasted one of their cigs.

 

[Thrasher]

lol agreed, the few times i tried one they are so nasty i want to barf, and anytime i get the urge i think about "remember how it tasted last time?" and forget all about it.

 

[tarless]

Ha, not just me then!

I still don't think I've found a juice that I "like", but even that nasty pineapple one in the back of my drawer is better that the analogs.

 

[XeniaMike]

Like others, so did I. It was nasty, but I oh-so wanted one. Smoked about half of it before putting it out. Yuck. I will say second-hand smoke from others still has a nice smell tho. Hopefully that will fade someday.

 

[bazmonkey]

Same same. Tried half and tossed it. The taste wasn't the goodness I remember, and it felt obviously unhealthy now.

I must admit, though... the buzz was awesome. Nicotine eliquid is enough to stave off the craving, but I have never felt anything like that vaping. Maybe I'll try WTA liquid sometime for kicks (the want for that buzz isn't enough to throw me off my vaping).

Then again, a part of that buzz might be the carbon monoxide and general noxiousness of the smoke.

At any rate, I still didn't want to finish the cigarette.

Ick! I just threw up in my mouth a little...

After vaping for 34 days (quit analogs after checking the mail on day one) I kind of want to take a drag of an analog just to see how bad it will be, but I want to maintain a smoke free streak more. I'm just going to assume it's terrible.

 

[Ryan1888]

Have been smoking analogs for the past 2 days now due to my mod being stolen and I will say that as the time goes on I am enjoying it more. I still would take a PV with a tank of juice over them at a moments notice though, oh sweet vaping how I miss you.

I know it is strange to say but I actually dont feel so good after smoking analogs again, not sick but just as though I actually can feel inside my lungs and body how bad they are.

Call me crazy.

 

[John Alexander]

It makes you wonder how we all got started in the first place.

I hope you are getting a back-up and a back-up for your back-up just in case.

 

[pcrdude]

Agree with post above. At the very least, keep an njoy around (or go buy one) instead of reverting to stinkies.

I know how I started. It was just what people did in pubs in those days. Go out drinking... Buy a pack of cigs to go with it.

I might well have not started if the smoking bans in bars were around then. It seems to me that a lot less 18-20 years old smoke now than when I was that age. Stats in the UK seem to suggest it's gone down from 30% in 1990 to 20% now, but it seems like more to me. Maybe those that do smoke, smoke less.
