I am a former smoker of 34 years. I began smoking at 16 like most of my family, but in 2006 my older sister was diagnosed and died only 4.5 months later from lung cancer, I knew it was time to quit. I averaged 1-2 packs per day at that time. I used Chantix and successfully stopped smoking for 4 months, but as soon as I quit, the urge was just overwhelming and I resumed smoking and quickly escalated to 3/4 or a full pack per day. In 2012, I started using e-cigs to help cut down on my smoking and it worked well. I decide to set a date to stop, and used an international business trip as my stop date. I smoked my last cigarette on the way to the airport on the morning of January 14, 2013, and I have never smoked another one! With the Ecigs it was so very easy. I have had very few cravings and I love the fact that I can smoke with little or no nicotine, none of the tar and carcinogens of smoking and NO Smoke smell. I most often use a cinnamon disposable ecig in the lowest nicotine, but also have the refillable rechargable ecigs that I mix my own non-nicotine juice for. There has not been any negative aspect to using E-Cigs, everything about them is positive. I save money, I am healthier, and I have shared this with several friends who have either cut down or have stopped smoking with their use. I think the introduction of these products gave me a viable substitute for my bad habit, and I can still enjoy the feel of smoking without all of the hazards and negative consequences. I do think that warnings on the batteries and the fluids are acceptable, because in our world, there are always stupid people who want someone else to take responsibility for their actions. I sincerely hope that the US government will respect those of us who are responsible and have found a healthier alternative to smoking and in their consideration, will draft laws or recommendations that do not punish the masses.
