VAPING SAVED MY LIFE

7 YEARS AGO I USE TO BE A VERY HEAVY SMOKER 1.5 PACKS A DAY! MY HEALTH WAS TERRIBLE, TO SAY THE LEAST, HAD NO STAMINA, COULDN'T SMELL OR TASTE, THE COUGHING IN THE MORNINGS WAS THE WORST... I TRIED EVERYTHING FROM PILLS TO HYPNOTHERAPY AND NOTHING WORKED NOTHING COULD CURVE THOSE CRAVINGS ESPECIALLY THAT SMOKING WAS SO EMBEDDED INTO MY DAILY ROUTINE, FROM THE RITUAL MORNING COFFEE AND CIG TO AFTER EVERY MEAL TO EVERY BREAK OR POSSIBLE CHANCE I CAN GET...
A FRIEND INTRODUCED ME TO VAPING 7 YEARS AGO AND FROM THR FIRST 10 MIN I KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO WORK, IT SIMULATED SMOKING AND A GOT THE SAME AND SATISFACTION THAT I DID FROM A CIGGARATE, VAPED FOR A FEW YEARS THEN VAPED WITH 0MG NICOTINE AND NOW I DONT VAPE OR SMOKE AND AM FREE...
ALSO, MY MUM WAS DIAGNOSED WITH STAGE 4 LUNG CANCER 5 YEARS AGO, QUIT SMOKING WITH A VAPE AND NOW DEOS NOT VAPE OR SMOKE AND IS VERY HEALTHY AND ACTIVE.
Thank you
Jay

Well Jay, I'm so happy for you and your mum. Well done to both of you.
I'm sure that all of us can relate to your addiction. We've all been there. You and your mum are free from the Devil Nicotine and that's all that matters in the long run.
Have a great Christmas and happy New Year to you and yours. You better give your mum an extra hug cause you're lucky she's here to enjoy Christmas with you.

Sounds like your mother was one of the lucky ones to discover Vaping before it was too late. Before the era of Vaping I seen my best friends father die a slow and graphic death from emphysema and dispite the nature of the disease he smoked till very near the end. The saddest part was his mother still smokes. It's heart wrenching, but she has been sucked in to the common narrative that e-cigarettes are worse than smoking, and we both know smokers will use any excuse available to them to justify their dangerous habit. I'm so happy for your success. And I'm glad your mother found a way in time.

A wonderful accomplishment for all. Congrats and thanks for sharing your story. I am glad that you also resolved to be free of the Nicotine monster. Those are words of encouragement to others to know that the addiction can be beat. I hope you will read our stories and stay smoke free. Encouraging others to also be free of nicotine would also be appreciated. Some incentive and words of praise and caring also go a long way in seeing someone through a bad day. We hope you will share and care.

Great work! Sounds like it was quite abounds but pumped for you and your mother.
