Hi all, I'm quitting today.. I'm 26 and i've been smoking for around 12 years. I'm using an E cigarette kit from totally wicked. Unfortunately I feel like I'm going to explode and bargaining with myself how 'just one' cigarette would be ok! Really struggling. Would love a quit buddy :)

Hi there

Welcome to the forum.

Hang in there - I've also been using a e cig and it definitely helps take the edge off my craves - I'm 8 weeks in now and have managed to resist the urge to smoke so far. Try get through the first few days - use the e cig or gum or other NRT to get you through difficult times if you need it. But it will get much easier!!!! We are all here to help you.

Welcome welcome and im sure you will find this forum a lifeline like many of us do...

I am 3 weeks (one lapse of 3 cigarettes when on holiday - oops) in and am also using the e cig. I have up and down days but for me, the e cig has most definitley taken the edge off things.

Just one piece of advice which someone else gave me - just try to use the e cig when you would normally have a cigarette rather than every time you have a craving or you run the risk of puffing away on the e cig 24/7 in the early days! I am now using it a bit less.

Good luck and well done for making the decision to quit -thats one of the hardest bits.

Hi congratulations on deciding to quit. I have smoked for nearly 50 years and have so far managed to stay quit for over 3 months. It's tough at first but the longer you stay quit the easier it gets. Just try to remember that cigs do not make anything better, quite the reverse. You can do this, and you have come to the right place for support. Good luck and keep posting. It helps

Thanks everyone!

I'm definitely not vaping too much.. more than a few in one go and I start feeling really sick :| So I'm just inhaling two-three times whenever I'd usually smoke. I've started going by the window or outside to vape as well, which seems to help with the 'habit' part. I went and got myself some different flavors too! Found one called 'Virginia', which is lovely and feeling much better now.. eight hours without a smoke! Which sounds pathetic, but it's the longest I've gone in years :o
