Hello my name is Bryan, i started smoking at the age of 17, i am currently 27. Now Iv’e tried quitting a great many of times over those years, some lasting a day, to some lasting a month. I always seemed to fall back into it however due to stress, or just plain anxiety. A little over a year ago i started chewing, it kept my cravings down and generally satisfied my nicotine needs, but it was cutting up my inner lip and made my stomach turn, so needless to say i fell back to cigarettes more than a few times. Once the taxes on cigarettes got to high i switched to these little cigar’s that looked like a cigarette even had a filter on them. After a few months of this i found myself coughing uncontrollably on a daily basis, i tried some of the stick e-cigs you could find at the gas station and such, but ultimately they just didn’t quite do it for me. I started doing some research online, and i found 2 very good resources for everything e-cig. GrimmGreen and Pbusardo on youtube and their websites respectively, they turned me onto this e-cig forum. I learned a great deal from them also many others and made a decision to give something like an Ego T a try, and boy was a BLOWN AWAY! i still get the feeling every now and than of like holy crap! this thing is amazing!. Thanks to the amazing community at the ECF and pbusardo, grimmgreen, and all the others i have an excellent resource of information regarding all the things new, old, and in between. I have been completely tobacco free now for going on 3 months+, this was a life changer for me, i feel SOOOO much better, i can taste things, i’m sleeping better at night, the whole 9 yards. I can honestly say as long as they stay around, and i have an easy way of getting what i need to keep it going i will never go back to tobacco products ever again! I know it’s switching one habit for another, but i can honestly say from deep down, that i FEEL 110% better than i did for the last 10 years smoking/chewing! So i would like to end this thanking that community from the bottom of my heart for comming together and being so supporting to all the new comers in helping us quit, helping us find what works for us, or fits our budget its truly inspiring to see such a positive community like this, and its my hope that it will continue and grow in size to reach out to others across the globe who want to quit, or want to try and use this as an outlet to at least save their overall health in my opinion of course. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and god bless. Sincerely; Bryan G
