I am a former pack-a-day smoker of 13 years. E-Cigs helped me quit tobacco cigarettes completely a little over 2 years ago. I have not smoked since, nor had the desire. I did not smoke tobacco cigarettes and vape e-cigarettes at the same time. The smell, tar and just about everything surround tobacco cigarettes lost appeal immediately. Prior to e-cigs I had tried the following methods and means to quit tobacco cigarettes: Chantix, The Patch, losenges, cold turkey, Nicorette. None of these methods or products worked for a substantial amount of time. Chantix actually had negative psychological effects on me, forcing me to stop using it. Since I have quit smoking with e-cigs, I have experienced: – Improved lung function – Overall increase in energy – Family and friends are happy that I am not smoking anymore for myself. They are also happy to not be around 2nd hand smoke. As well as the absence of the putrid smell. – The ability to balance my budget and save money. – I am a new person today thanks to e-cigarettes.
