I was a smoker for over 12 years, since I was 16 years old. I had quit a few times but always lost the motivation to stay off cigarettes. When my wife became pregnant, I tried to quit smoking, but just couldn’t do it. My little boy is two years old now and he tries to get my cigarettes all the time so that he can be like Daddy. Time to stop. I had used E-cigarettes a few years back and they helped very little. The inconvenience of getting them 3-4 years ago was unbearable. I would have given up on them entirely if I had not started researching them once again. The community of E-cigarette users (vapers) is unbelievable. I had no idea there were so many great products out there (only a few years later). I spent some time researching, went to a local store (that I had no idea about previously), bought a kit and haven’t looked back in 2 weeks. I even threw away a couple of packs that were sitting around. They hold absolutely no appeal to me now since I started vaping. In my life, I know smokers who have tried everything (even writing hate letters to their cigarettes), but nothing has worked for them. Every vaper that I’ve met at the local shop is a former smoker, and that is really saying something as to the effectiveness of these life-changing products. I know for certain that if they were made unavailable or more inconvenient for me, I would go right back to cigarettes for my nicotine cravings, which is why I will fight for my right to keep them available, convenient, and affordable. I can’t have my little boy thinking that it’s cool to be like Daddy if that means that he thinks he should have a cigarette.
