Its great to see people taking the steps to quit. This eCig thing is for sure not the ideal soloution to smoking out there.But its for sure a big step in the right direction. That is the most important thing right now. For that I send huge grats to you. Awesome to see people making eventual progress to a heathier life without smoking. Eventually would be nice to see you ween yourself off the eCig and not intake any of the chemicals that smoking puts inside you. | ||

He owns an e-cigarette and says that its just not the same, which is a reason he hasn't made the switch. I'm wondering if you had any sort of feeling early on, did you think it wasn't the same as a cigarette and just wanted to get back on normal ones, or is it something he just has to do for a few days and it'll seem like nothing ever changed | ||

FUCK When a friend of mines died to Lung Cancer at the age of 33 a lot of our friends stopped smoking that die. I know it seems distant and unprobable outcome for young smokers, but after seem this friend in question first have coughs for 1 year which were mistakes as Lung infections etc and then be diagnosed with lung cancer at such advanced stage there was not much to do was an eyeopening event. He died 5 months after the diagnosis. Listening him to talk in TeamSpeak in his last couple of months during WoW raids was heartbreaking. Congrats to DjWheat for being able to quit, hopefully permanently ! | ||

They are quite amazing, and even cheaper than regular cigarettes, especially the $12 a pack they cost here in NYC. You can use them indoors, get different flavors, and even used them on an airplane. Eventually, the constant charging and refill changing got annoying, but that can be dealt with. I also ended up quitting smoking by using eCigs. It was tough, and honestly, willpower had at least as much of an effect and I almost felt like the eCigs were placebos, as they were nowhere near as strong or instant as a normal cigarrette. eCigs will definitely help, but keep in mind, you have to want to quit to make this work. You are going to need willpower most of all, but eCigs will help A LOT. | ||

DjWheat is 34? I thought he was way older LOL! Besides that. I don't know how it feels like to be addicted to smoking. I have only smoked twice in my life. Didn't feel it was great. But good for you that you quit smoking :D | ||

I've not thought about sneaking a smoke, my smell has already recovered and now smoke (and my friends who still smoke) smell like complete garbage to me. Heh. Join the club. I've also noticed that it also smells a lot worse in the middle of winter, to the point where you can smell it from meters away. The cold seems to make it cling to people's clothes a lot more. Hopefully it doesn't get cold enough over there for you to notice the difference but the people that still smoke always seem to think that you're exaggerating. | ||

I started the eCig a year ago this month. It's allowed me to cut my real cig usage to virtually zero. I'm still using the eCig Mediums but plan on moving to Low this Fall. Glad you broke free of the slavery. It's a bitch to quit and I'm very thankful for eCigs. | ||

Every time i resume smoking i think to myself " well atleast i cut down" when in reality i shoot back up to a pack a day within a week of starting back up . I just started smoking again and regret to say the Ecig has failed me. It's my own fault though. The fucking ecig died on me and the charger is at my parents house. SO one night i had the choice of driving 20 miles to get the charger or not hang out with my friends. I ended up bummin a cig to "hold me over" til i could charge my e cig.( 2 days later i was up to half a pack, end of week full pack) I hope to attempt again.. maybe new years resolution. I'm 24 years old so hopefully i can quit sooner rather than later. | ||

There's some speculation that because they can't tax it, the government is holding back on them. What brand did you use? Maybe I'll try ordering them online, but it seems like a lot of hassle to get cartridges in time, and I don't want to switch just to run out of cartridges and smoke a regular pack again. | ||
