I started smoking when I was only 15 years old because all of the cool kids did it, And I smoked roughly 1 pack every 2 weeks. But as I grew older I began to notice my pack of cigarettes didn’t last mr a full 2 weeks anymore but just a day or two shy so I didn’t worry. Then I realized my pack only lasted a week then half a week then only a day till I started smoking 2 packs a day, I was only 19 years old. I attempted many stop smoking aids in the following years such as gum, the patch, Chantix, and of course cold turkey with no avail. Buy the time I turned 24 I came to the assumption that I will not able to over come the cigarette vaping caught my eye. I was skeptical because I had no clue what would be putting in my lungs until the guys at my local vape shop told me the 3 ingredients in e-liquid: vegetable glycerin, propylene glycol and artificial flavorings all which are approved for human consumption by the FDA and are in many foods we consume on a daily basis. I made the switch to e-cigarettes when I was 24 and smoked regular cigarettes together but cut down considerably, cutting back to where I was when I was 15 to one pack every 2 weeks. Now I am 25 and only smoke electronic cigarettes I started from 24mg of nicotine to now 6mg of nicotine. With out the electronic cigarette I would be smoking 2 packs a day still or worse more. My daughter loves that I don’t smell and how I don’t get cranky when I can’t get my fix. I can honestly say vaping saved my life.
