I am thinking about trying electronic cigarettes in the hopes of cutting back. I like that I can just have a puff or two and not the whole cigarette. I would appreciate any feedback from people who have tried them. Thanks!
Chosen Answer:
Yes, they can and most probably help you quit down or smoking or simply quit totally. I quit totally from day one, even though I’ve been vaping ever since and not intending on quitting.An ecig is nothing like an analog, something most if not all the people who make the change don’t understand – and it’s quite natural, since one’s used to smoking and loves the taste of ciggies even though, of course, one has understood how much they can be harmful. Hence the changing idea. First, skip the ecigs that look like analogs: they sell you cartomizers with tastes that may you may (or may not) love at first but soon will make you sick and, who knows, go back to analogs. Most of them aren’t even cheap… I’m thinking, hmm, a fes brands, you do understand. Then there’s not a single eliquid that will ever taste like an analog, you just have to get used to the idea and find the liquids that you love, the ones that you like, the ones that you can put up with, the ones that you can’t. The devices available, the sources, the qualities and types (“tobacco” – note the brackets and non-tobacco) and brands, buying on the net, it’s something you really must face like a new hobby that definitely made you forget about smoking. And it’s too hard to explain in just a few lines. Listen, google ECF, one of the major ecigs forums in English, and you’ll get all the help you need there (keeping in mind that people do have opinions, of course). Soon enough, you’ll find your own “sweet spots” and the fixed idea of smoking will be long gone. Most of your cigarette-related health problems will be gone as well, even though there may be a time when you have to adjust your body simultaneously to quitting cigarettes and their about 5000 compounds and to something very new to you with possible temporary side-effects (or not). No worries and good luck!
