I quit smoking a number of times before trying everything available. However it was always a matter of time before I would return to smoking. Staying smoke-free seemed just not to be an option. So I quit on 3-15-2013, I went a month+ craving for a cigarette every day! I eventually got past that point, through some rather difficult withdrawal symptoms. After a month a half I had a couple of different co-workers tell me that I had become anti-social. They added that they liked me better when I smoked. So I had already been considering checking out e-cigarettes when I went through that long withdrawal period. I picked up a retail packaged disposable ecig, it was ok it wasn’t anything special. it was pretty much how I remembered them from trying an ecig and ecigar about 3-4 years prior. It was tobacco flavored, but it wasn’t my cigarette of choice flavor. I carried it around with me for a little over 2 weeks. Until I stopped in at a smoke shop ready to give in and just buy a pack of smokes on a particularly stressful day. I noticed they had an e-cigarette notice on the door and a brand attached I vaguely recognized from my reading on the subject online. However the kits seemed too expensive to try on a thing I wasn’t fully behind because I didn’t like the flavor. I was surprised to see I now had a choice by going to smoke shop vs a c-store. I still left the store that day with a tobacco flavored e-cig however it opened me up to options. Today I am analog cigarette free and I have a new hobby. Did ecig help me quit
