Quit smoking cold turkey back on March 28th. Smoked for 11 years. Started when I was 16. Haven't looked back since. My brother still lights up right in my vehicle with me. Doesn't bother me one bit. Only pity him for not making the change for healthier options.
Smoker for 20 years and had tried to quit using other methods. Just wanted to be healthier and not wheeze and cough at the slightest physical exertion. This was what helped me quit. It has also turned into a fun hobby as it does for a lot of people.
Smoked since I was 13. Quit a few times with the medications, but... they were pricey and once i stopped taking them, A few weeks later It would always start with a flavored cigarillo.
usually after a workout....or a swim.
smokes were 9-10 $ a pack in van. Moved to asia, Where smokes were cheaper, and decided to quit. why? because I smelled like cigarettes all the time.
only reason.

decided I needed to live a healthier lifestyle in general, so I started eating healthier, exercising more, and quit smoking. had tried to quit before (cold turkey, patches, gum), but nothing really worked until e-cigs.
Honestly, I'm a cheap SOB so I did the math and found out that vaping would be cheaper in the long run. Having better health and not smelling like an ashtray were just added bonuses. At first it was just saving money and an alternative way to get my nicotine. Now thanks to DIY it's even cheaper and it's more of a hobby than a habit. Win-win.
Yep same here switched to vaping after 35 years of smoking to save money. I also DIY my juice and vape with Evods, T3's and protanks with Ego's and save LOTS of money and enjoy it more than cigs.
Didn't intend to quit. I didn't want to continue to smoke around my computer so I picked up a mark10 cigalike just to puff on while on my computer. Found it didn't have the punch that I was looking for so I did a little research and the next day picked a starter kit from a cig shop. Next thing you know...stopped. 2.5+ PAD to zero. Never looked back.
I started because my wife was a heavy smoker and she was looking for something else, so we got into vaping together pretty much.
Been smoking since I was 13 and now in my 40's. I wanted to be able to breath again, And now I can 
Had smoked for 35 years and then quit 4 years ago due to some medical issues. Still craved them at certain times of the day. Vaping has filled in the gap, thankfully.
At one point I decided that it was too much. I was constantly wheezing, I was overweight etc. and I am glad I have left this behind me
The cost of smoking cigarettes was like paying a second mortgage every month. And the constant, lingering smell....
After almost 40 years of smoking I gave myself a dope-slap and stopped.

Had smoked for 20ish years and 50 is fast approaching. In the last year, I started to get the impression that my lungs were at a tipping point...continue to smoke and utterly pooch my lungs, or find an alternative. REALLY glad I had a friend that had already done the transition...made it much easier for me as they had already blazed the trail.
I had been a non smoker for a couple years and came up on a really stressful time. As I weighed my options between starting smoking again, becoming an alcoholic, becoming a stoner, or vaping, the vaping was the all around best choice for me.
