I smoked a pack a day for 15 years until 3 years ago when I purchased my first cigalike. I now use mods and rebuildables because they work! I no longer smoke as of 3 years ago. I immediately switched from cigarettes to the ecig. I previously tried the gum, patches and the cigalikes from gas stations none of these alternatives worked for me. I was only able to quit for 3 days using these other methods. My overall health has improved as well as no longer needing to use my inhaler.
