Then, go have a nice long vape, basking in the knowledge that you’ve just contributed to the future of vaping.
I started smoking at age 15 and am now 71. The simple math says that equates to 56 years, and probably 2 packs per day for at least the last 40.
My comments
My doctors obviously wanted me to quit smoking, and prescribed various methods and drugs, such as Chantix. Nothing worked for me and I continued using the stop smoking drugs and smoking.
In January of 2014, January 11th to be specific, I tried and electronic smoking device. And to my amazement, and that of my wife, family, and friends, I quit cigarettes. I have not smoked since that date in January. In addition, 3 of my 4 children smoke, and I now have 2 of them using a vape device. I am extremely pleased with our success.
Two weeks ago I had my annual checkup with my regular doctor, and of course he asked about my smoking. He was thrilled when I pulled out my vaporizer and announced that I had successfully stopped smoking in January. Just thrilled!
Numerous friends have noticed and asked about the vapor devices that I use and the flavors of the juice. At least 6 of them then purchased a similar device and juice and have quit cigarettes. Now that is success! And I am very proud of my success not only for myself but for others I have influenced.
I do not use the cigarette look a likes currently on the market. They are unsatisfactory from a performance point of view, batteries are too small, flavors are not good, and they remind me too much of all the years that I smoked cigarettes. It would be a disaster to me personally and to my family and friends if those were the only devices available.
I closing, I appreciate the efforts of the FDA to keep myself and my family safe from harmful products, drugs, and devices. But any restriction on the use of currently available devices, flavoring, and nicotine would well exceed being helpful and protective, and instead cause untold numbers of former smokers revert to their former unhealthy and nasty smoking habits.
Please do not be responsible for such a tragedy.
