I was a heavy smoker for over 22 years. By heavy I was smoking Camel Light Wides at 3 to 5 packs a day. Now I don’t smoke, I vape! I have been vaping for a year and a half now. I tried to smoke a traditional cigarette a month ago and the experience was dreadful. Was gagging, coughing, gasping for air, I could never go back to smoking. I tried Chantix, the patch you name it I tried it all and it was to no avail. In my 22 years of smoking nothing else worked to get me to stop smoking. I have completely banished that habit. With vaping my sense of taste and smell have returned to that of a normal person. Plus I no longer smell like a walking ashtray, you never realize how bad that is till you finally kick the habit.
