Whatever works for you, do it. I literally put cigarettes down after 10 years of daily smoking after buying a simple vape and some good tobacco juice. I started because I could not take smoking another day, but if you are an 18 year old kid that never smoked wanting to blow gigantic fog clouds, wear it out.
I smoked for almost 10 years and started vaping to quit smoking. I tried the patches and going cold turkey and always started back smoking after a day or two. Vaping has kept me off cigarettes for a year.
I vape as a alternative to smoking. Smoking made me sick but vaping doesn't. So i get my nic and don't have to suffer from asthma attacks anymore.
I vape to quit smoking. All the neat mods and equipment is a hobby for me.

Yes the vaping community is getting big fast! But not fast enough for the millions who have died from smoking cigarettes.I think there ARE irresponsible vapers, but there are so many more irresponsible smokers. As far as cloud chasing, it seems to be a personal choice. I vape because I don't want to smoke. And I would rather get a faceful of vapor than cigarette smoke any day!
I started vaping because my mother made me promise to try it after my grandmother dies of lung cancer. I promised to try vaping but promised nothing to anyone about quitting smoking. I stopped that unintentialky around a week into vaping. That said, I do not care what anyone's else's reason to vape is. I likely don't need to vape anymore, buy I continue vaping for play. I like the flavors, I like tinkering with things and I like this hobby.
I started vaping to quit smoking. Went from 2 packs a day to 0. Started at 18mg when I had my protank and now that i drip im at 3mg although i keep a bottle of 6mg for "those days". But vaping has become also a hobby for me, I enjoy building and cloud chasing now too. But always respectfully, like I never throw clouds in a restaurant or anything of that sorts.
Likewise. 39 years was way past long enough! And I don't care if I have to vape till the day I die, if it means never picking up another cigarette -- which probably means that the day I die will come rather later than if I'd kept on smoking!!!

Very interesting comments in this thread, im glad to hear from people that VAPE to quit a very bad habit and not just to play around with it, don't get me wrong,vaping is playing with a purpose ,but vaping to just play has no purpose,.. VAPELIFE!!

I started vaping because I wanted to transfer my addiction to something a little less harmful for me, and for my nieces. 20 days in with no analogue and I think I'm going to be successful
I hated seeing my nieces use their crayons as "cigarettes." Smoking is the normal thing in our house, because EVERYONE smokes. When I switched to vaping my nieces asked me why I stopped smoking, and I told them it was all around nasty and deadly (nothing I haven't told them hundreds of times before), but them seeing me (and my sister) work hard to get away from it, I think, is what got through to them. They looked at me and asked, "so smoking's really bad?" and I agreed, and they said, "we don't ever want to smoke then," which is the first time they ever said that. No more play ciggies, no glorifying vaping, they want to stay far away from any of it. Which is a relief to me, and just reinforced the idea that I did a good thing. Also, my oldest niece hasn't had to use her inhaler ONCE since I switched.
The lesser personal reasons are: I don't stink, my teeth are whiter already, my lungs don't feel like they're gonna collapse, and I get to buy new juices and things.
I did it to improve my life, and try to spare my nieces from going down the same road my mom, my sister and I all went down, and in the process I get to enjoy myself. I'm not cavalier about potential harm these can cause, but I rest easy knowing I'm reducing the overall harm I'm doing to my body, which is much, much more than can be said for cigarettes

I vape because I believe it's a healthier alternative to cigs.
I enjoyed smoking, with no intention on quitting. My sister gave me a ego &T3S and when I finally used it...it worked! To my disbelief, the transition was completely painless. Five months later, I couldn't be happier!
I use everything from ego's to mechanicals & rebuildables. They all have a purpose.
As far as vaping to quit or play...I don't personally know anyone who vapes that wasn't previously a smoker, myself included.

Hi Guys,
I am new here. Started vaping for a few weeks now and have managed to ditch the analogs altogether. 28 years of at least 1 pack a day and now just vaping really makes me think it is more a smoke blowing habit than nicotine addiction, lol. Unfortunately vaping is considered illegal in my country, I really don't know how long this can last. Browsing through the forum really make me sad, it just reminds me of all the great mods and delicious juices I am missing out.....
Nevetheless, quit smoking start vaping....

I started just to play, as I have loved smoking (only smoked a few a day, and not every day, though). I was attracted to the notion of all the flavors, being able to do it in more places, and more often (one of the reasons I only smoked a few a day was because cigarette smoking was always somewhat self-limiting: if I went over five, I did not feel great). Since vaping (two weeks), I have not enjoyed the cigarettes as much. I still love that complex, smoky flavor, but the hit to the lungs is just not pleasant compared to the cloud. So, I might end up quitting smoking after all, although I really never started this with that intention.
