I am 20 years old. I started smoking cigarettes at the age of 13. I always told myself I wouldn’t get addicted to cigarettes, and that it was just a thing I did when I was around friends that smoke. For years I watched my grandfather suffer from lung cancer. When he passed away in 2010 I told myself it was time to quit. I tried to kick the habit but couldn’t get myself to stop. I heard about electronic cigarettes a year ago and decided to try them instead of using a patch or quitting cold turkey. I noticed I cut back from two packs a day to one pack a week. Now I use mechanical mods with a rebuildable RDA. I haven’t touched a cigarette in a month. And I feel amazing. I believe E-cigarettes can and are helping people quit smoking.
