Vaping has changed my life and I should have stuck with it years ago. I just got back into vaping after trying it 5 years ago, when I had an actual e-cig. I now use a mod AL85 Baby Alien from SMOK, which changed my life. 5 years ago the technology was bad and it just didn't do it for me. With this new device I have zero need for real cigarettes and I am so thankful I have an alternative that is better for me.

Anyone else feel that vaping has changed their life ?

No, but I used to chew a can a day in college and then I met my girlfriend, who is now my wife, and quit cold turkey. I feel great and my mouth doesn't taste like shit every morning, not to mention the money aspect. I do miss it though every once in a while. I'd love to be able to buy a can and chew for like a 'guys weekend' or something, but I can't control it. Tobacco is a hell of a drug. I don't know much about vaping, but it's gotta be less expensive then cigarettes? Have they been able to link vaping to cancer?

What I know is that I feel like a million bucks compared to when I was smoking cigs. I have been trying to quit smoking FOR YEARS and NOTHING worked, but these new vape devices have made it very very easy. I was out of control with cigs and truly felt like a slave to them no matter how hard I tried, until now. Canada and the U.S. gov seem very very misinformed about the risks of vaping. So much so, that I am starting to think big Tobacco is behind it. Vaping is one industry that truly threatens big tobacco. Thankfully the UK is doing constructive testing and research for prople who created the vaping industry, ex-smokers.

I'll try to find the link, but a Harvard study shows a high correlation between vaping and being a ****** bag.
I should submit my own findings.

Some thirty-something male was standing on the corner with his "rig" with huge plumes of "smoke" blowing back in myself and three other people's faces.

I should say it was less offensive than cigarette smoke to the face, but this cloud on my face reeked of grape bubble gum.

(Hubba Bubba came to mind)

How is it acceptable for a grown ass man to be "smoking" Hubba Bubba in public like that???

(You are not a 15 year old girl from 1983)

As to the OP...just about anything is better than ingesting straight carbon monoxide, but it trades one vice for another and nicotine is still bad for the heart in any form.

I have enjoyed converting to a vaporizer for my "herbal meds". Much cleaner method of burning flowers.

And some people might not like the smell of your vagina in public either.


Yeah it's much cleaner and I cannot wait until I can get THC in it.

Yes, vaping has helped me quit smoking.

However, vaping in public is extremely douchey. So I only vape in the privacy of my own home/car. Just control your cravings inbetween.

Good for you... if it helped kick smoking good on it.
I've heard you can vape down to no nicotine and quit that as well.

That is all I vape. I'm actually kind of glad vaping wasn't a thing when it was time for me to quit cigarettes.

I tried the E-Cigs as a crutch to quit, but it just made it all too easy to relapse.

It is going to suck donkey nards, but the only way I was able to quit smoking was cold turkey. The first five days are horrible, but after that it just becomes a battle of breaking the habit. I found that E-Cigs/Vape Pens were detrimental to breaking those habits.

(One vice for another)

So I am sorry if I came off snotty about it OP. Dropping cigarettes is huge...just stay away from the bubble gum juice or I am coming after your Man Card.

That was the key for me too brother. It wasn't the addiction that was hard to beat, it was the habit, the ritual that was hard to get beyond.

Vaping should only be done with THC or CBD involved.

You should get a pass because you Aussies just got Hubba Bubba, like, three years ago.

And, yeah, the "tobacco" flavored are the worst. I found one citrus flavored one that was tolerable. Reminded me of Five Alive.

(Loved that stuff growing up)

the best tobacco i got was actually a bad attempt at weed... it tasted similar to a nat sherman menthol reburn that had been sitting in an ash tray for awhile... some shitty homegrown ashy burnt wooden bowl flavor with a hint of mint..
