I’m a former smoker. I began smoking at 17, and I’ve been trying to quit ever since. I first bought an e-cig when I was 28, but it didn’t help much due to how difficult it was to draw smoke from. Now I’m 30 and not getting any younger, but money is tight and I needed an alternative. It was when I started using an electronic vaporizer that things changed dramatically. At the time of this writing (July 18, 2013), I have been cigarette free for 11 weeks. I threw away my last pack and haven’t looked back since. I started at 20 milligrams of nicotine, and now I go between 10-8 milligrams. I feel better than I have in a long while. My acid reflux is in control, I breathe far easier, and I spend less for 1 bottle of e-liquid that generally lasts me a week versus a pack of cigarettes, which barely lasted a day. It is my goal to be nicotine free by the end of next month, and I can drop this habit for good.
