I smoked cigarettes from the age ten until 1984 when I quit completely. I only wish that we had E-smokes back then but we did have nicorette which didn’t help much. I quit too many numbers of times but I always went back to the cigarettes. The E-Cigs seem to help many people quit tobacco and there’s been no adverse effects from this so what the big fuss. Money? It seems everything is about losing money these days. Does anyone really give a rats behind about the real health of Americans? If they really did they would try to steer the public away from tobacco and the effects of it. Like so many other bad habits that we have put on the table, it’s all about the money. I do chew tobacco but not totally. I use nothing else and I quit tobacco cold turkey. It did change my mood for awhile but not in a bad way. I have been non cigarette for so long now that others smoking don’t even bother me. When I did quit my ex-wife did smoke but I kept away from her when she did smoke and I didn’t hang around those that smoked for awhile. This helped me draw away from the desire for tobacco I think.
