What do e-cigs "feel" like?

[Rio Fantastic]

Hello,

I am by no means a heavy smoker. I have been smoking for about two months on and off, and now have one cigarette a day. Every time I smoke I get a head rush and a nicotine buzz that persists for quite a while. Will E-cigarettes give me this same feeling? Is it less satisfying??

Thanks

With that little usage, I'm not sure an ecig would be for you. Unless you went with a no nic solution. You would be bound to take in way more nicotine than you are currently..............

I'm also being told that there is no such thing as a nicotine buzz and that people only vape if they're addicted or enjoy manipulating smoke

Is this true?

It wouldn't be quite the same for you. Head rush is caused by carbon monoxide and 4000 other chemicals on top of the nicotine. E-cig is closer to chewing tobacco

I smoked for years before I changed to e-cigs. Just guessing, but I don't think you would get the same head rush unless maybe you used the higher nic juice. I don't want to sound preachy but you might want to avoid getting yourself totally addicted to smoke and quit while you are ahead.

I will say this to you, as a smoker of 25 yrs.... just quit now while you still can.... please. At one cig a day it would be so easy. I am not preaching trust me... more like begging!! Lord how I wish I never started... the e-cig is not for you, you'll only become more heavily addicted. This is only my opinion and yea I know I'm new and it means squat but truly, just quit that one a day and never look back if you're able

But I'm thinking if I switch to E-cigarettes I can keep the buzz with no bad health risks.

you won't get a cig buzz with these.........trust me. When u get enough nic to feel anything, you get sick(nausea)

I have spent about $3000 dollars a year for the last 20 years, all because of my first cigarette and that lovely buzz you're discussing

I wouldn't go that far. There's a difference between "reduced risk" and "no bad health risks." There's still risk involved with PVs. We just don't know how much yet. We know it's less than traditional smoking, but it's not a 0 risk situation.

I dont get a 'buzz' from vaping... that was from regular analog smoking due to the thousands of crap chemicals they put in it. Whatever you decide... please be careful with becoming more addicted, it happens all too quickly I know.

So with E-cigs you don't even feel the nicotine?? Then what's the point of them??

Seems like these weren't the awesome alternative I was looking for

The point of these would be to cure a lifelong addiction to the worst, most pointless habit you could ever dream of. They are not toys, they are not fun and more than 99% of us wish we had never seen a cigarette. Right now you have a great opportunity to stop, believe me pretty soon you'll be smoking more and more and more and guess what. No buzz from cigs any more either.

But if I switch to E-cigs and get addicted, whats the problem?

the fda takes them away........or one breaks and then you become a smoker.

add that to the fact that no one really knows what happens when u vape for years on end

Think it through! I've been smoking a pack a day since 14 (16 years). I have tried everything to quit. I vape WAY more than I smoked, because I don't have to break my "No Smoking in the House" rule.

Listen to us; please quit now while you are ahead.

Why does nobody want to answer the simple question? What do E-cigarettes FEEL like? Whats the buzz like?

 

[Tori]

its the addiction... we do it I think because we are hoping this vaping is not as bad for us as smoking but we're not even really sure what the risks are with it.... we are feeding the addiction without having the nagging cough and gross smell of smoking IMO... and hoping as I said that it isn't gonna kill us like smoking probably will

 

[Tori]

Why does nobody want to answer the simple question? What do E-cigarettes FEEL like? Whats the buzz like?

NO buzz sorry... and to me it feels like sucking in air mostly

I've answered it twice, first sign is more like nausea(and not the good buzz kind)

I would also recommend reading these "I have been smokefree for" sigs.

look at my 1891 cigarettes in 43 days.(and that's actually a lenient #)
I started just like you
