I've given up smoking again and am on day 12. I've been smoking for the last six months after a bit of a traumatic time earlier in the year, and before that had given up for two plus years. I was on approx 10 cigarettes a day.
I am vaping with a nicotine vaping eliquid (16mg) and plan to go onto nicotine free flavoured vapes soon. I am really pleased to have kicked the habit, but worried about starting again, as it is so tempting at the moment.
I've started getting really out of breath recently though, and wondered if it was something that people who gave up smoking went through ( I can' t remember what happened last time I gave up!). I am also starting to get a real craving, so trying to avoid any smoking areas. I was vaping in the vaping area at work but for some silly reason some people have been told they can now smoke there so I can't vape as I can't be in the same area as smokers at the moment!
I've heard about this 'popcorn lung' that is a disease caused by one of the ingredients of the eliquid but my eliquid doesn't contain this as I made sure before I started. Diacetyl is the chemical involved. Its been hugely over senstationalised in all the daily papers, and the truth of the matter is that although vaping has not been properly researched, there is 100 times more danger is conventional cigarettes than in e cigs. And no tar is e-cigs too. Last night I ordered Black Jack flavour (the sweets) and 'vanilla custard' so looking forward to those coming through the post! The ones I have already are a bit hit and miss, Chocolate was horrible, the Morello cherry is lovely, and the apple flavour is too, Strawberry I quite like, the menthol is a bit boring!
Anyone else vaping after giving up? What flavours to you recommend?
