I was a pack and a half smoker of full flavor cigarettes for 26 years, I had heard about electronic cigarettes, and decided to try them as a healthier alternative. I tried various different types and brands of e-cigarettes periodically over about 1 1/2 years time while still smoking regular cigarettes, and then I ordered an ego type device, and I was completely off of cigarettes in three days. I now have several ego type devices as well as a mod, and use clearomizers and 24mg. nicotine juice of various flavors, predominately tobacco flavors. I have not smoked in nine months now and know I never will again.I had only ever been able to quit smoking one other time, mainly because I had bronchitis, but only quit for a month that time, I tried nicotine patches, but they didn’t help at all, in fact a couple of times when I was in the hospital they gave me those patches and I smoked in the bathroom anyway, got caught a couple of times too, I wouldn’t recommend trying that yourself. I have noticed my breathing is so much better, I don’t get winded as easily, I rarely cough now, I can smell everything so much better now,(not always a good thing), and am just happy to be free of cigarettes once and for all. My next goal is to start lowering my nicotine strength, until I reach zero and then who knows, maybe stop vaping all together!
