I have been a smoker on and off for around 10 years but over the last year I have been trying various different ways of quitting.
Patches - Cause skin irritation and gave me a dull ache in my elbow - FAIL
Gum - So many different brands, only 1 was nice but it was too expensive to keep up, I also got jaw ache after a while. - FAIL
Mini mints - Tasted like chalky minty burning poo. - FAIL
Mouth Spray - Burned like I had just sprayed battery acid in my mouth - FAIL
Champix - started off fine, after day 4/5 I stopped smoking and didn't want a cig. I noticed even if I had one that it tasted nasty and felt boring and had no effect. by day 8/9 I started getting messed up dreams, acid reflux / feeling sick and the final nail in the coffin was when I started with a tight chest pain. - FAIL FAIL FAIL!!!!
So, I took up smoking again and enjoyed it for another few months and got to try the new "burst" cig's which have come out.
2 Weeks ago, I went into a shop an noticed they sold a disposable e-cig, I have noticed them before, but they had always been silly money; this disposable one however, was only £2.00! I gave it a shot... to my amazement, the taste was much nicer than a normal cig, the stuff you inhale is warm like when you inhale a cig, had the same "hit" at the back of the throat and stopped the nicotine craving my brain was after.
I have now bought what I would class as the next step up. A pair of rechargeable e-cigs and plenty of cartridges and e-juice to keep me going.
I have not had nor wanted a real cig for over 10 days now. Even when offered one, I have turned them down.
I have noticed my sense of smell and taste has come back and I have more energy than I used to and I have had no ill effects from the e-cigs.
I can say for sure, I am nicely on my way out from the tight grip that tobacco had on me and I wont be going back!
Does anyone else on here vape? I am interested to see what set up's you use and also which flavors you are using.
