Do some research and if you are mainly looking to replace the hit - as opposed to the general vibe of smoking - I suggest going for the strongest you can find. |

I bought a Blu on New Year's Day that was supposed to be "full flavor tobacco" or some bs like that and it tasted like sh*tty watered-down coffee, something sickly sweet and the way cat vomit smells. Disgusting. I think a real, non-disposable e-cig might be better but I haven't liked them much in the past. It's smart of you to do some research. I didn't.
The patch and gum are expensive, and I've gone "cold turkey" only about 20 times now. It's sad. I wish I never started smoking, it's not worth it. |

Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking: Be a Happy Non-smoker for the Rest of Your Life: Amazon.co.uk: Allen Carr: Books 1,000 ratings, 5*? I'll be stunned if there is another item on Amazon as popular as that. I bet if you post on other forums, if you made a thread on this book there'd be people who can vouch for it. He's been blackballed from the stop smoking industry though; who would rather give you something containing nicotine to keep you coming back. Quote:

I got a Halo G6, a couple pre-filled cartomizers, some e-liquid and blank cartos. The TriBeCa is good about keeping me from reaching for the analogs.

I'm still skeptical of e-ciggs. I mean, they aren't regulated by the FDA. Sure, they are missing the more than 4000 chemicals that regular cigarettes have that are carcinogenic, but BOTH versions still contain nicotine which can still have nasty long-term effects. The e-ciggs also usually contain propylene glycol, which is questionable, and many other sketchy unregulated chemicals (since as mentioned earlier they aren't regulated by the FDA). Plus, you can never know how much of what is actually in there.
I'm not saying that they aren't an effective solution to stop smoking and improve your health, but I think the whole concept is kinda perverse, especially when you see non-smokers turning to them (such as kids and teens) and especially when most people think they are perfectly healthy for you and won't cause any long-lasting health problems. |
It's frankly moronic, in my opinion, to use an e-cig if you don't smoke. In that case I'd be wary about what we don't know about them. For a smoker like myself though, I'd be very surprised if they aren't at least the much, much healthier option.
I heard some woman on the bus the other day talking to her friend. "Are you still smoking? I had two today. Oh well whatever I do I wouldn't get one of those electronic cigarettes. They'll poison you! I'd rather smoke!" :bonkhead: |
