E-cigs helped me quit cigarettes but I only used them for a few months and then didn’t need them any longer. I’ve been smoke free for several years now and if I get in a rough spot or know I’ll be around smokers or clubbing I pack that e-cig as backup. I used the no-nicotine version.

One side of my family vapes.  They are constantly shrouded in a cloud of fragrant steam.  If i cannot roll it into a joint, I don't want to smoke it.

I am always guarded about newer things. THere just hasnt been the time to accurately determine long term side effects

It's still nicotine, and nicotine is a poison. From what I've read it has other adverse effects.

You may have quit the cigarette habit, but you are still intaking nicotine.

Nope. They have many brands that do not contain nicotine. Most have the option of how much nicotine you want in them and you can choose from none to high doses.

I know of no one who vapes just to look cool, though I'm sure there are people out there that do. Even those are ingesting toxic chemicals that will damage the lungs/body.

Personally, I don't see the sexuality of smoking and I was a smoker at one time.

@Jnei Thank you for pointing that out, but I don't think that means they are safe either. Caveat emptor. [factcheck.org]

@jeffy Indeed; not safe and it's far better not to smoke or vape - however, the popcorn lung argument was blown out of proportion.

Popcorn lung debate is obsolete. Very few of the vape brands use the chemical that causes it. And everyone of them lists the ingredients in there Vapes online.

@Jnei Yes, thanks for correcting that. I wonder why someone went to the trouble of doing that? Who knows?

@jeffy The most obvious answer to that is "the tobacco industry", who have a vested interest in discouraging people from replacing tobacco with vaping and are well known for being economical with the truth!

It's excellent. I prefer dabbing but it doesn't get me as high as vaping some decent weed. This Davinci IQ is an amazing little machine.

After I quit smoking, I just don't feel like vaping. Eight years without a single cigarette.

Level 6

I like to vape. I'm allergic to smoke so I don't smoke. But I do not vape products with nicotine in them. I usually vape CBD oils. It helps calm my nerves and helps keep me mellow.

I do flavor vape with 12 mg of nicotine.
