Lately I went back up to 6mg from 3mg. I was using Swedish Snus often at work, since I couldn't take many vape breaks (it's a hospital). I was vaping 3mg and using Snus at the same time, but wanted to quit the Snus. I decided to give 6mg a try again. It was pretty rough at first, but I honestly enjoy the harsher hit and taste. Who else has had to climb stengths due to stress/tobacco relapse?

That is not tobacco replapse we are all Nicotine addicts the reason we smoked in the first place if you have to adjust your NIC level so be it.. Its no big deal :)

As long as I am not burning the demon weed into my lungs I am perfectly fine with harm reduction.

I am a former smoker...
LOL at this. People thought I had lost my mind vaping 30mg.

But 3 packs a day, comes with its own supersize pack of demons when it comes to withdrawals.

Family was offering to buy me cigarettes sometimes lol

I used to smoke 3 packs a day. The highest nic my local store stocked was 12 mg/ml. I dripped 12 for the first two months without trouble.

I know the pain. I have to keep my caffeine and nicotine levels high at work otherwise I will kill someone at work.

Smoke and drink coffee. That was my entire day. Still is, except vaping has replaced the smoking.

There's a mug on my nightstand, along with a mod.

I was also diagnosed with a severe caffeine addiction. I didn't even know there was such a thing. LOL I've been drinking coffee since I was 5.

The one I seriously came close to lighting the fuck on fire with denatured alcohol and the hot soldering iron deserved it.
I was sitting at a tech bench with a bar for customers, the filthy as hell shit person who was seriously fucking stinky... reached over and grabbed one of my scribes and started cleaning his fucking black as hell nails... I looked up from repairing his phone he blew all that funk right into my face.

I took the scribe out of his hand and impaled his phone dead center in front of him. they scraped all the pieces and his foulness off my bench into a baggy... and handed it to him with a do not ever fucking come back.

If you have trouble finding juice at a nic level you desire its very easy to buy a small bottle of 100mg unflavored nic and adjust the level without effecting the flavor since your adding such a small amount.

Remember nic in the form we use it is not bad like it was in a cig. Cigs are bad for you because of all the chemicals and bits and bobs burned, Its really on the same level as caffeine so if you need to bump up your nic level to stay satisfied then do it. A dripper/good sub ohm tank at high wattage is going to vaporize much better than a standard tank or even a sub ohm tank in the middle to lower wattage range so 3mg for a lot of people just isnt enough on those devices if your a former smoker.

Some people just need a 18-24 mg nic level when they start vaping to scratch that itch and unfortunately with the cloud chasing nature vaping has went to the higher nic levels new vapors need are starting to become hard to find in juices that you actually like. When I started I was 24 mg and anything lower really made me stare at packs of smokes when I get gas, etc.
