3mg too low ??? excessive use vs 6mg

[marlyjo]

I recently dropped from 12mg to 6mg and found it pretty hard.
12mg was too much but 6mg was not enough.
Mixed a few juices to get 9mg then went to 6mg.
Like actually stopping smoking your body adjusts and I'm sure the mind has a lot to do with it.
6mg is fine now, enjoying it.
Mistakenly filled a tank with 12mg and it was way too much and couldn't vape it now.
No plans to drop further at the moment but who knows in the future. Happy.

If you want to cut down on your nic, increase the nic. Simple really.

Recently gone back to 12mg and MTL, and the vaping far less than I did at 3mg. Unless, of course, fine wines and such like are involved [emoji41]

I dropped to 6 for a bit and was chain Vaping, which I hate, so back to 12 and happy to vape as and when.

I was a 20 a day smoker for about 35 years and started vaping 2 years ago. I now sub ohm and 3mg is the maximum I can take. To be honest I think I could move to 0mg and be happy. For me it's all about the flavour now either in eliquids purchased but mostly in DIY. I would say I have kicked nicotine BUT I go abroad twice a year and smoke cigs - must be psychological - I'm quite happy when I get home and go back to just vaping. I think I'm a fucking idiot and can't understand why I do that. Maybe next holiday I'll just vape.

I went down to 3 because after 10 mins of vaping 6 on a dripper spun me out a bit, but I find 3mg for drippers and 6mg for tanks works well

Regardless of nicotine strength, the only reason that I get through more juice now than I did a year ago is because I produce more vapour per toke with the devices that I use these days.
If I could count my puffs, I reckon I puff away for, roughly, the same amount of time in a day as I always have done. I no longer vape to satisfy any craving for nicotine, "vaping" is my new habit, nicotine was my old one.
It's taken 5 years, which just goes to show the stranglehold that nicotine has. At the moment (I DIY my juice) I'm using 1.0ml of 72mg nic base per 100ml of juice, just for the sake of it. I have no plans, or need, to ever buy nicotine base in the future.
I don't need the nicotine, but crikey, I doubt I'll ever crack the need to vape.

I went straight for 6mg to 4mg I don't find that I vape any differently. I have vaping at 6mg for 3 years. I have found nicotine messes up my throat so finally I decided on 3mg

I managed to drop to 3mg juices, but I think as the flavour is a little better I do use a bit more per day.
I notice the nic if I have to use any 6mg juice. It makes me enjoy the flavour less now.

12mg makes my shoes covered in lunch though..

I started on 18 and dropped to 3 as soon as I got my Atlantis, now I DIY at 1mg of nic, totally and purely in my head. I don't vape anymore than before. Without it I knew I was missing it but really my body's probably pretty clear of it. I used to make juice for my Mrs at 6mg but now I make hers at 1mg too and she hasn't said a word.
