Hi, my name is Shannon. I have been using electronic cigarettes and e-liquid for 3 months now and could not be happier with what they have done for me. I started smoking cigarettes at the very young age of 13 recreationally and by the time I was 15 I was a pack a day smoker. 17 years as a pack a day smoker at 32! That’s almost 20 years! It doesn’t seem possible. I had tried to quit on several occasions for multiple reasons. I tried to quit because I got winded walking up stairs, I tried to quit to be a more positive roll model for my children, I tried to quit because my boyfriend at the time hated it, I tried to quit because it was visibly aging me…. I tried the patch, I tried the gum, I tried pills… I even tried hypnotism. Nothing stuck! I was out one night for a friends birthday a few months ago and noticed a mutual friend vaping he offered for me to try it as I was outside smoking a cigarette and it was different. But I liked it. He explained to me that he was weaning himself off of nicotine and that you are able to customize to your specific needs and taste etc. So that following weekend he and my boyfriend took me to a local vape shop in Warwick, RI and I got my first starter kit and I haven’t looked back. Cigarettes are a beast! I have watched them claim both of my grandfathers lives. You would think that would make it easy for you to just quit! but it didn’t. I had struggled with quitting for years and in one day, with the help of e-cigarettes I just quit. It has only been 3 months but I am noticing more changes every day. I am not as easily exhausted physically, my hair and skin appear healthier and my children and family are thrilled, as they have seen the struggle first hand.
