Just curious to know. I know I am vaping more. But I think its due to the fact its so convienant. I dont have to leave to go to the store. Its always right in front of me. Maybe its because I live on my puter and I always tended to smoke more here than anywhere else. Now even when Im out running around I find myself reaching for my PV. Im really happy I stopped smoking but now Im thinking I need to stop vaping. But Im not sure if I can. Hmmmm...is there a Vapor Anonymous???? Seriously if a carto is like smoking 10-15 cigs them Im vaping more than I smoked. Like 3 to 4 cartos a day! Do you worry about it ? Or just leave it at ...Im not smoking anymore so screw it! That last part is me!!!!
Vape more than you smoked?

Chelseafn.....You hit alot of key points there which have been asked by many including myself. I definitely vape more than I smoked. Partially due to the fact that I can vape indoors without the worry of second hand smoke. Just the convenience of pushing a button/switch instead of "Lighting up" makes it easier to vape. You may find that all the things you associated with smoking(computer time ect.)involve increased vaping because of that convenience. If your worried about nicotine,the great thing is you can always decrease your nic strength(down to 0mg if need be). I'm really not sure about the carto to ciggs ratio but your not the only one who vapes heavy
Do I worry about it? No! I do know that after 18 months without an analog and vaping the whole time since, I have never felt better,my clothes don't stink,I don't have to wash my winshield on my car as often, and I certainly don't have to worry about losing my lighter or having to run out at 3 in the morning for cigarettes.
Do you vape alot? Only you can answer that....but I think you were wise to give up the smoking for a much healthier alternative!
The Wiz!

I think most vape more than they smoked. It's not really an issue, as far as I can see. There are even chain-vapers, those who have their PV in their hand all the time. If I were their doctor I'd be pleased it wasn't a cig.
If you use normal nic liquid, as against zero-nic, then be aware that in order to equal the amount gained from an average cigarette, you need to use the ecig for at least three times as long, say 15 or even 20 minutes, as there is less available nicotine in ecig vapor. Therefore your 'over use' might just be equivalent use, in fact.
Another thing that should be challenged in your post: ".....if a carto is like smoking 10-15 cigs.....". It isn't, unless you are talking about some kind of mega carto. I think 4 or 5 cigs is a much more realistic number.
Add these things up and your usage might then look more 'normal' to you.
Any health issues or implications should be discussed with your health professional.

Hi Chelseafn, As you know I have been vaping over 2 years and I am a heavy duty vaporer. I too think do I need to try to quit. I have cut down to a low to zero nicotine, so I feel better about that. In the end its gotta be better than cigarettes. I do tend to get up from the computer and go do some other things and leave the ecig behind, that will help cut down.
Good to see you Katy! Hope your doing well!
I Vape a whole lot, especially in the car or in-flight. The problem is unlike a analog where I am done after smoking it, I take constant hits off the PV.
