Did you literally chain vape when you first quit stinkies?

[BULLDOG1964]

Been one of those days for me so far been chain vaping all day .......

Quit Cigs 10 weeks, started MTL at 18mg but was soon down to 3mg DTL, still chain vaping most of day, but it`s not in my hand all day now. How you work and vape I dont know, glad I retired.( If anybody needs to dual fuel for a while dont look at it as a failure, you will get there )

I'm lucky that I'm a delivery driver so can vape all day lol

I vaped and smoked for 3 days myself just to use the last of my baccy up.

I've removed everything smoke related from the house.

Filters and papers in the bin and ashtrays given to the mother in law.

The lighters would have gone too if the wife didn't have Yankee candles everywhere haha

the original nautilus had the option of 1.6 and 1.8ohm coils so used at 10-14watt max.
since the nautilus 2 came out there is also a option of a 0.7ohm coil for 18-23watts.
these can easily be used with 18mg nicotine which wont blow your head off unlike using it in a subtank with lower ohm coils like 0.5,0.25 at much higher wattage.

Thanks very much for that mate.

I'll look into them when I get a bit of spare cash.

Hopefully now that I'm building cos and looking into DIY juice I might have a bit.

Just a bit of a struggle at the minute got 4 kids and a baby on the way.

But some kind apes have given me some things which will get me another mod on the go (thanks again you guys really appreciate it)

So hopefully we will see a fair bit more money over the coming weeks and months since I won't be buying baccy anymore.

When I swapped the fags for vaping I made myself vape the exact same as if I was smoking..I tried to keep everything how it was when I smoked thinking it would give me a better chance of sticking with quitting..however I think I did vape a little more than I would have smoked due mainly to experimenting so much trying to find my adv.

When I first started vaping I was using an ego pen type vape with 18mg juice, them I discovered hangsen and would use 18mg, 24mg or 36mg depending on mood. I would chain vape for quite a while as I enjoyed the flavours.

Then moved on to mods, decent tanks/drippers and vaping 12/18mg.

A few years back I was vaping 6mg, last year was 3mg.

Up until recently I was using under 1mg sub ohm but then started treating myself to 3mg shop made.

Last week I loaded up another sub ohm kit with 6mg and the weekend I got some cheapo stuff in 11mg, I am finding I can actually put my vape down!

It is all new and great fun when you first start vaping, you realise you do not need the ciggy and there is a way to break free of them.

Experiment with different nic ratios til you find one you can settle on, even if you buy a 3mg and 6mg, mix 50% of each to get 4.5mg and watch what you prefer throughout the day, evening and night.

Maybe have something higher for first thing in the morning to get you topped up, throughout the day have the middle one then lower in the evenings.

It is just trial and error, but whatever you do it's to keep you off the ciggies so do not beat yourself up over it.

I was never a chain smoker, but I definitely vape more than I smoked and quite often do chain vape for long periods. I think the difference is that I enjoy it more, the flavours are so much better.

Hi @Miss Pepper thanks for the input.

I'm going to have a go at making some juice rather than spend a lot on 100ml so I'll be able to knock a little 6mg nic up to try.

The little morning increase sounds like it might help me out. That's really the only one that feels weird.

I'm determined to stay off the cigs this time too.

Been on virtually none for about a week now and just started getting a little phlegmy rattle in the chest.

Is this the lungs starting to clear themselves?

Yeah I think I enjoy vaping more than ciggies because I still get the satisfaction and like you said it tastes lovely too haha

yup that sure is. detoxing the lungs can take 2-3 weeks where they clear out all the shite from the tar and all the other nasties.
taste,smell will get better and the house will smell nicer.
remember to drink plenty of water as vape can dehydrate you.
if you ever get nausia or headaches then youve had too much nicotine so just lay off the vape for 30mins and it should settle.

Nice one mate, it wouldn't be so bad if I could cough it out but I can't yet haha.

Just got a horrible rattling I can do nothing about.
