I smoked Marlboro Red for 42 years, giving them up August 1,2013. I started smoking because my brother did, and I wanted to be cool too. I had tried a few times to quit. I used nicotine patches dropping them as they were too much nicotine with the Marlboros. No help at all. I tried nicotine gum, but that lasted less than a week because I still craved Marlboros. Last year, I used Chantix as directed for the full 90 days. At the end of that time, within 3 days I was REALLY craving a Marlboro. However, I had seen a ecig store locally and went in. The owner listened to me, made a recommendation, and I bought a starter kit. Wow! It was great! I have bought a more heavy duty vaporizer and buy the ejuice bi-weekly. I have no desire for Marlboros for the first time in 42 years. I have been stopped by many people who notice my vaporizer and I take the time to explain it to them and have seen several folks at the vape shop. I haven’t fallen off the wagon, so to speak, in 11 months. In fact, regular (analog?) cigarettes kind of offend my nose now. My walks are more enjoyable, my breath comes easier, and I feel 100% better. I’ll also note my clothes, house, and car are cleaner & no longer smell of smoke. We won’t even mention the extra money I have to spend (or save) now that I no longer smoke 2 packs a day. In all, I believe the personal vaporizer and ejuice have saved me from regular cigarettes. I’d hate to see these removed from the market or regulated out of business. If they were, I’d be back to Marlboros in no time. And that would be in nobody’s interest.
