Quitting Smoking. Just thinking about it, or have already put them down. Sometimes it helps to talk to others who are, or have gone through the same thing.

There are prople who are interested, and others who I'm not so sure of. If they're interested, I'll take the time to explain it. It *does* get old after a while. I wish I had a nickel for every drug related joke that I've heard.

I'll tell ya, PVs were just the ticket for me to quit smoking!
- almost 7 weeks now and only 4 or 5 serious cravings.
And they went away with a few puffs of 24mg

But 24mg is getting a little too strong for me now,
and I'm anxiously awaiting delivery of some 12mg!

Haven't had any bad experiences (yet?) with the close-minded;
sorry to hear that some of us have!

Hopefully the veil of ignorage will lift from the masses soon!
What I'd really like to see is a major retail chain start selling them!
Yeah, I know.. keep dreaming...

Best Regards,

Jonathan (Dogbertus Ceasar)

I started at 24 mg in June or July of 09' ,I am just trying to make sure I beat my nic addiction before something happens to screw this up.I have had some bad experiences in the past and I can see where vaping is before long going to be taxed,over regulated or worse.It seems like big brother really gets p*ssed when the little guy is just trying to make do.

They do like taxing even our soda isn't safe anymore.Pretty soon they will start charging us a living tax.

I'm having so much fun vaping, I don't think I want to quit just yet> Nicotine is a stimulant just like coffee and by itself without all those other chemicals from a cigarette is not that bad. Anyone have good knowledge about the dangers of nicotine?

It's not good for you, neither is caffeine for that matter. Although Doctors support vaping in principle as a "safer alternative" they do see it as a smoking cessation aid more than an alternative. Google health related issues wrt both.

Actually, there are some medical organizations that claim that there are benifits to nicotine. Just Google "Benifits of Nicotine" for the other side of the story.
