I was a tobacco smoker from the age of ten. The first time i tried to quit smoking i was only 12, but i could not make it – not then, nor later! 🙁 i’ve tried all of the NRTs available (pills (chantix and zyban), patches, inhaler, and so on and so on) and i also tried hypnosis and the carr book.. no luck.. 33 years of smoking went by.. Then, in 2103, thru a facebook friend i became a member of the Norwegian vaping community Norsk Dampselskap (NDS)! 🙂 I bought myself two starter kits of Evod1 and a bunch of different e-juices. After only about two weeks i was smoke free!! 🙂 Within the first week the smoker’s cough was gone and so was all the mucus that earlier i had to get rid of every morning before i could breathe properly! From there all is just better and better! and now i havent smoked since the fall of 2013, almost two years! (Y) and its sooo nice!! i really feel that alot of stress is gone in my life! cause smoking causes alot of stress! 🙁 when can i get my next smoke? and so on – it was i nightmare to travel … now its just pure pleasure! i started out with 11-14mg nicotine in the juice for three months, then continued with 6mg for three months, and then i stopped using nicotine in the vape alltogether. i vaped without nicotine for about nine months 😉 Just because i could – and it tastes so nice! 🙂 i could not have done this without the vaping and the support from NDS (Y) ..and i have stopped vaping as well, so all in all i was vaping for about 15 months. (vaping dont cause addiction:))
