I am off the e-cig as well I only needed it the first few days

Liquid poison there calling those things now...

Trading one addiction for another is not a solution.

That is your opinion and that's fine.
But it's not mine.
Being dependent on something in my mind isn't an addition, as smokers you get dependent on nicotine and the process of hand to mouth movement when smoking.

As i said in my post, I enjoyed smoking and in a way didn't want to give up, so looking for a safer alternative this was my move.
I have done more than enough real research into the vaping world and as it stands at the moment I have no problems in continuing this as there is no indication what so ever that this is harmful.

I do agree there needs to be long term testing done on this, and strict laws for mod makers and juice makers to follow and am keeping an eye on this all the time.

I am not addicted to vaping, I choose to do this, and I am no longer dependent on nicotine after 2 years I have gone down to zero nicotine juice for vaping.

It has now turned into a hobby more than anything, will I get bored of it in the future, maybe, but for the time being I will continue to enjoy what I am doing.

Big Tobacco's campaign to make e-cigs sound as bad as regular cigarettes... Even though they bought many if the e-cig makers they can't shut them down without even cheaper makers popping up and they can't bring in the profits they were used to- so they have to destroy the reputation when there is zero evidence.

Another 28 days and I will be off smoking for a year

Off smoking where? I'd like to go off smoking for a year but I've got things to do......:p

That's great to hear Force, really great to hear!
You had quit just a few months after I quit... I am at 1 year and 4 months smoke free, and did not lapse once.
Keep it up. :up:

Nice work Tim as you know its one day at a time

Good! I was pretty lucky myself no heart attacks thank god but I quit smoking cold turkey on June 21, 2007 after 25 years of smoking. We were living in a small space at the time and I had a cigarette lit and was smoking it. I started hacking, my sister started hacking (and she has never smoked) and my cat started hacking (and of course the cat never smoked). I looked around and said no more, put the cigarette out and quit right there. Never touched another one. I felt like what the hell was I doing, i was killing everyone in the house including my cat! It was enough for me to stop. Glad you are going on one year! Good job!
