I Quit Smoking.

Recommended Posts

Today marks 22 days tobacco free. After 30 years. I don't miss it.

I've tried gum, lozenges, patches and cold turkey in the past. Nothing worked for more than six days. For me, the ecig is working well to calm the nicotine monkey. I recommend it to those who are struggling.

Yay me.

That's awesome. I have a couple of friends who use the e-cigs, and they're thrilled with them.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

Congrats, but if your using e-cigs your still using nicotine every day thus you have not really quit sort of. I'm not trying to be a dick, just saying.
I know a friend that has been using e- cigs for years, thus he is still addicted to the nicotine. No doubt e- cigs are way better for you though.
Good luck!

If you say so.

I quit smoking. Quitting nicotine will come with time. I'm no longer breathing in tobacco smoke. That's a big deal. Don't really give a shit what you think. :P

Four and a half months tobacco free. Four weeks nicotine free.

Highly recommend ecigs for those ready to quit smoking cigarettes. They made it almost easy.

cold turkey here 5 weeks no nothing after 43 yrs 2 packs a day
I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.

I had to quit smoking months ago. I would wake up in the morning with my chest feeling like I had a 10 ton boulder on it. Probably the hardest thing I've ever done. I picked it up in 2008 on deployment. I saw all the cool kids doing it, and thought, hmm, they all seem like they are making the best of life in Iraq. Sleeping under our vehicles in the sand with a smoke before bed…Then I started working out really heavy and it just wasn't for me. I will occasionally have a smoke, but I don't enjoy it anymore… it's just the "go to" stress reliever…I end up taking a puff and I gag.

I have friends that all do the e-cig deal and they all like it…

Are there any "health concerns" with those things? I understand its just water vapor, but what happens in your lungs with the water vapor? I figure its better than inhaling smoke, tar, carcinogens and all that other jazz..
