I have smoked for 14 years and started slowly at the age of 12 and for the last 5 years I have tried to quit but I did not use anything to quit I just tried to quit without anything and it never worked, people around me also tried to quit with patches and gum and failed, I didn’t want to waste money on something that wasn’t going to work so when I quit or tried to I never went more then 4 days without buying another pack of cigarettes. I quit smoking the day I got my mod (7-22-2013) and haven’t touched a real cigarette since or have I even wanted one and it has been a week, I have stopped being stressed about the money I spend on cigarettes a day and now feel happy and proud of myself for my accomplishment, I use 18mg of nicotine for my e-liquid and plan to cut that down every 3 months until I have no nicotine at all. This will be the last thing in my life that I needed to change to be more healthy and I honestly feel it will happen this time with the help of e-cigarettes, I can now set a good example for my 2 children and be around for my grand children and great grand children and grow old with my wife. My wife also smokes and has seen how the e-cigarettes have helped me and plans to also quit smoking real cigarettes and switch to e-cigarettes, her mod is already on order and she can’t wait for it to get here.
