Vaping Constantly

[ladygearhead66]

I was wondering if anyone else vaped constantly.....seems like all the time, when they first started out. It just seems like I can't put it down, and I'm doing it from the time I get up till the time I go to bed with very few breaks in between. Is this bad, and should I slow down? Any comments/opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

I think most people on here do the same, I definitely do

As far as it being bad, at the least its better than smoking a grip of cigarettes. Won't fully know until more in depth studies are completed & time passes. But I know I feel an insane amount better than when I smoked all the time.

Might be normal, if you have just started vaping. If not, have you considered that perhaps you are not getting enough nicotine and are constantly craving it. Raising the nic level may help a bit and then lowering it back down in time.

When I first started out, yeah. Now I can go for HOURS without even thinking about it!x

i'm in the same boat! i've been vaping for the past 5 days none stop. I started off with 36mg nicotine strength and now down to 18m which is my current sweet spot. I go to the gym about 4-6 days a week and my cardio has been improving dramatically. So far so good is what i tell myself

i do the same thing. vapeing about 3 1/2 months now....seldom put it down. personally, i feel my nic level is not high enough, but i got a care package from my niece with various flavors and strenghts, and they are old, so this could be it for me. i did order new juice in a 24 today, so part of my problem will be solved. i just love holding it and vaping away!

For at least the first 2 weeks and possible longer you're going thru withdrawal of the alkaloids. Scientists did a study. They got rats addicted to nicotine and place a bowl of nicotine in the cage- rats didn't self medicate. They then addicted the rats to nic+ alkaloids and placed a bowl of nic+ alkaloids in the cage- rats made a beeline to to bowl and began self medicating immediately. Realize also vaping is a far less efficient nicotine delivery system because the vape/ nic particles are too large to enter the bloodstream via the lungs- most vape/ nic transfer occurs in the mouth and nasal areas. We all went through this phase and yes and although worrisome your vaping will taper off eventually. Remember to drink lots of water.
The Very Best of Luck.

Edit: First month I was prolly vaping 60+ ml per week of 36 mg juice 8-o

Im constantly vapeing, home, work, car... If its not in my pocket its in my hand, if not in my hand, on the charger, not on the charger on the bedstand when i'm sleeping..lol

Thanks everyone. Glad to know I'm not the only one going through this and its not weird and UN heard of. I ordered higher nicotine which should be here in a day or 2. Thanks again and best wishes to you all.

Same with me ur not alone lol

I'm loving life, because I was kind of a closet smoker, and although they knew I smoked, never did it in front of my kids. Now, I don't stress about when I can have another, because its always in my hand, lol.

I just started vaping too and I got 24mg juices because I didn't want to "hurt" when I transitioned. Next orders I'm going to lower the nic strength because I like vaping so much that I do it a lot MORE than I was smoking. I'd like to be able to vape and NOT increase my nicotine intake... y'know? It's the behavioral habit and taste of vaping I like where with the cigs I didn't enjoy it anymore and only did it to stave off the hurt. YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

It does get pretty expensive vaping 30 MIL a day! I'll tell you..... boy!

 

[O'Face]

Yeah......... That sounds like you have vape envy JK. This happens when you wonder how much others are vaping and have to match up JK. I went through this as well, but have since subsided. I really don't know how, but I eventually only vaped when I felt the need to. Such as when I'm in the car, at work, at the computer, on the phone, and generally anywhere I can fit it in.
Did I mention JK?
On a real note I have found the longer I vape the less places, and times I do. Hopefully this will happen for you too. If not........Well then I think I'm coming down with a case of vape envy.

Day 30 of no analogs my wife says i need a 12 step program seems like I cant get enough !!!
I rotate between 3 flavors from the time i get up to the time I go to sleep

Step away from your PV. LOL

From the time I open my eyes in the morning, vapes are blowin

They make the things taste too good. It's not fair really.

The only problem I come across is if I continue vaping til late at night, I have a harder time falling asleep and some slight anxiety at times, probably from the excessive nicotine stimulation. The trick is to just be conscious of it. Keep it out of arms reach so you can't habitually stick it in your mouth without realizing it. Helps me from overdoing it.

Same here. I also noticed that - for me - the cadence is different. With smoking the thing is burning so you have to get your puffs in before it burns down. With vaping I notice that I take a couple of puffs, chill / do something / whatever, puff puff puff, repeat.

Given I switched to vaping (now 9 weeks in) after 20 years of smoking without even batting an eye and having no meaningful trouble with the switch, I am not worried at all about the frequency or if I am possibly taking in slightly more nic. My guess is I'm actually taking in less as I'm using 18mg liquid and only going through ~3ml / day.
