I was a cigarette smoker for 15 years, 2 packs a day. I have been using e cigarettes/vaping for 3 years now. When I started vaping I was using 18 mg of nicotine. I am now down to 3 mg. I can honestly say the first day I picked up a vape was the last day I smoked. I tried quitting cold turkey and the patch, both were unsuccessful attempts. With the use of vaping I can now breathe better, smell better, and have more energy. Vaping saved my life. I am strongly apposed to any legislation written to ban vaping in the state of California.
