Total Newbie to Vaping - Plz be nice

Awesome on no cigarettes! I've been vaping for a little over a week (round 2) and have cut from 1 pack a day to 1 cigarette a day. Usually in the morning, on my way to work because traffic angers me. But I'm working on it!

Stay strong and kudos to you! It's amazing how much better you feel, isn't it?

 

Thank you for sharing your experience I just started vaping and still haven't got the hang of it. How long did it take for you to get used to it. It's different from smoking regular cigarettes, I read that it takes about a week to do the change.

 

Always nice to start the day hearing a success story, especially when you admit you didn't really want to give up, and mainly did it for health reasons. I have heard so many times that you will never quit unless you really really want to, that your story shows it can be done. Good on your for being free of cigarettes for 10 days. May you have many many more cig free days, months, and years ahead.

 

It honestly depends on the person. For some it takes a week, for others it takes months. I've been trying to kick the habit for years, and I still struggle with it. I don't mean to be a downer, but each person is different; also, different people smoke for different reasons.

 

Hi Jason - I'm new too and I wanted to say hello. Like others have said, it's really nice to come here and not feel so stupid about being new to something that's not really so easy to "get". Somehow cigarettes were just really something I did part because I craved them, but part out of habit -- as in associating a certain thing with smoking. For instance, my mom lives far away and we're usually on the phone for a while when we catch up. I would often sit outside, and smoke during our entire conversation. Now, I vape. The trigger to be doing something while talking to her is still there, but I'm really happy to be able to exchange one for the other. Congrats on your progress!

 

Welcome to the forum, Jason. I am happy with your decision of quitting smoking. Just wait and watch. You will experience a lot of health improvement as you have switched to vaping devices. It may be difficult at first but over time, you will be habituated to it. Fell free to post any question in this forum. We are here to help you.
