When I first heard about e-cigarettes, I didn’t take them seriously. I thought they were just a gimmick. But when I was desperate to quit smoking, I thought why not give it a try? It wouldn’t cost me anything except a little money. Plus, I could always return it. When I decided to try vaping, I didn’t get much support. I bought my first kit and my boyfriend told me I was wasting my money. Who could blame him? When the package arrived, I started vaping and loved it. I haven’t touched a cigarette since.
Benefit
E-cigarettes are a way to quit smoking. I love smoking but I also hate it. Smoking relaxes me and makes me feel more in control. I don’t want to give up that feeling. I also don’t want to put up with the smell and other effects. Not to mention that my smoking can also affect other people. When I vape, I exhale harmless, fast-dissipating water vapor instead of toxic cigarette smoke. Instead of over 4,000 chemicals entering my body every time I inhale, I only inhale PG, VG, food flavorings, nicotine and water, substances we are exposed to every day.
Since I started vaping, I feel healthier, my teeth are whiter, my hair smells like shampoo, and my skin is starting to clear up. I don't think I'll ever go back to smoking again. I love vaping too much. My life has improved in so many ways. I feel healthier, prettier than ever, and I've made so many new friends.
Present
If you really want to try vaping, know that it’s a long process. You need to spend time figuring out what you like to use the most. You need to try different batteries, different atomizers, and most importantly, what kind of juice and nicotine strength you like. It’s a process that can take months. You’ll feel discouraged at times, but stick with it and try something new. It’s a big investment in the beginning, but it’s worth it in the long run. I’m glad I decided to give it a try 14 months ago. I’m proud of myself for not giving up when people looked at me strangely and thought I was stupid. It works for me. Vaping is now a part of my life.
