Vaping

[PeelerPal]

I quit smoking after 20 years last December and went onto vaping. I feel much healthier physically from not smoking and I always hated the smell too so win win.

BUT I only vape when I feel the urge to have a nicotine fix and I get some very strange side effects including a feeling of anxiety and slight confusion. Does anyone else have strange effects from Vaping?

///I only vape when I feel the urge to have a nicotine fix///

Not really given anything up then.

[ummmm]

Errr....given up all the other harmful chemicals in cigarettes.

[PeelerPal]

How do you work that out baldy?

[PeelerPal]

Thank you ummm

[Baldric]

Yeh, right, no will power involved at all, I can see why it's popular.

[ummmm]

Baldric...it's a step in the right direction. Why so negative?

[PeelerPal]

Obviously you have never smoked Baldy because there is a massive amount of will power involved. Thanks for your comments but stick to what you know my friend (which doesn't seem very much)

[Baldric]

I smoked for 20 years +, went cold turkey and packed it in about 18 years ago, a lot of willpower involved, so I do know.

[ummmm]

People are different, Baldric, stop being so judgmental.

[PeelerPal]

Congratulations I am very happy for you and as you said "A lot of willpower involved" meaning if you had the access to the help you would have taken it. I quit in 1997 and started again in 2000 completely cold turkey but I started again so this time I don't care how long it takes I will take whatever is available to me to assist me with not smoking again.

Those are a couple of the symptoms that a rush of nicotine can cause, reduce the strength and it may not happen as much.

[Baldric]

I do not question your right to hold and state an opinion ummm, so would be grateful if you would respect mine.

[PeelerPal]

I have done that and it is still doing it so I am just going to try and reduce it down to nothing over the coming months as with my job I need concentration. Thanks for a positive reply Mamy.

UMMM There appears to be a lot of judgemental people on here I am starting to realise lol

[Mamyalynne]

You're welcome, good luck.

Despite it being in 'Body & Soul' threads often stray from the remit - we all have done it, I have and so have you Peeler. It's the way it goes.

[Mamyalynne]

^ have all done it

[ummmm]

I respect your right to have an opinion, Baldric, and I don't disagree with it, just your delivery of it.

[PeelerPal]

You are so right mamy. We all do.

[Baldric]

///A lot of willpower involved" meaning if you had the access to the help you would have taken it.///

No, not meaning that at all, there was help available, I'm sure, had I needed it,
I didn't.

@ Ummmm

I have seriously noticed that on this site, you have to sift through all of the negativity, have a few arguments and settle some disputes all before getting the answer you were looking for originally. opinions are like bums, everyone has one and some are full of crap...

I use ecigs, not for the nicotine......you can have no nicotine ecigs....it's because I'm such a fidget, but they do have side effects....

Very dry nose and mouth and I predict an increase in cases of adult glue ear...... caused by vaping.............☺
