Serious Question that's really bothering me..... I've never been addicting to anything in my life but cigarettes.. And I'm NOT thinking of going back, so no worries (breathe everyone)...But..... I've been out of my ADV for almost 2 weeks now and I find that I am a bit cranky...Well, alot cranky.. Which leads me to believe that I may actually be addicted to it? Seriously? Don't get me wrong, I have a few other good juices here, so i don't think its a nicotine issue. I DO NOT want to be addicted to anything ever again.. Getting off cigs was one of the hardest things I've ever done.. Ranked right up there with natural childbirth. I am throwing around the idea that maybe (small maybe) I should stop vaping?? CALM DOWN...even if i did, I would still be a huge part of this community, but what are ya'lls thoughts??

Nice way to get all serious Obs...
FWIW, I don't think you are addicted to the juice in the conventional sense. I have noticed that after about 30, most people get into routines and any deviation from those routines causes the symptoms that you are describing.

I tend to agree..It's my morning coffee (and everything else vape). And I don't like 0 nic juice (no offense anyone) but it tastes different.. I was down to 3 cigs a day when i quit.. I enjoy vaping but don't want to be dependent on it.. Lord, I don't want to be dependent on anything. My son, tried to change the livingroom furniture around once.. I damn near had a coronary.. Hmmm, maybe I just don't like change. What do they say about old dogs?

Routines take 28 days to set. If you've been using the ADV for 28 days or more consecutively I'd say its a routine, rather than an addiction and changing up that routine is what has made you cranky. Addiction & dependence are two entirely different animals which most fail to recognize, especially in the treatment fields. Dependence - your body's physical manifestation of the need to fill a receptor in the brain. Addiction - the body's mental & physical manifestation of needing more and more of something to overcome the physical dependence on whatever the substance is.

And addicts tend to be willing to do anything to get more of whatever it is they're craving. I would say you're probably just upset about the routine being changed by your favorite not being there. Think of it like wanting something very specific for a meal, and then something interferes in your ability to get that item you wanted for dinner, you're going to possibly be cranky because you couldn't get what you wanted, and as such whatever you replaced that craved food with, just isn't enough to satisfy your brain in terms of the craving.

I fully understand you on not wanting to be addicted to anything again, mine wasn't smoking, I vape for flavor to lose weight, but I've had to come off a few different prescription medications over time, and there's one that doctors love to prescribe without any warning that the dependence and subsequent withdrawal from it has been reported as worse than many stronger medications in the same class, which is disturbing when you think about it.

Thank you Frawg... So basically I am throwing a 'fit' because my routine has changed.. I would agree with that.. I need white Reece's to feel better..

why are there AA and AAA batteries, then C, then D. what happened to poor B? View attachment 1191

They exist, some just didn't catch on and then tech changed. My dad had a few of the hugeazz radio batteries.. :)

A "B" battery for vacuum tubes:

Eveready #762-S 45 volt radio "B" battery.

I fully believe that. I have a customer who has requested a custom pouch for one and I'm like it weighs a small ton, putting almost anything I normally use on it would be a bad idea so I'm having to increase the size and tweak it several times to make it work.

Same thing with taking a shower. You don't physically take a shower on your back and walk away with it.. You have a shower. You don't take one


Why do they call it taking a crap?????? I have never taken my crap anywere, I just leave it. Shouldnt we start calling it leaving a crap?????

Just realized the stupid alerts stopped for this thread. Guess the forum thought i needed a time out.

For the past week I've been seriously craving a coffin nail. Not giving in, but really hate that I still want 1.

I work around alot of smokers so all I have to do is spend some time with them right after they smoke and that typically kills my cravings because it smells so bad.

Or you could just think about the implications of this sign...

I always wanted a cheap Bolt mod just for walking to the store and such. Walking around with pretty shiny things in hand in this neighborhood just isn't a great idea.

Why do people say " Im going to take a piss " . Really where do you plan on taking it to? Please start using " Im going to leave a pee ". I highly doubt that anyone really wants you to take your urine with you unless your going for some medical testing.
