Emigrated to Planet Vape

Thats great flynt, over three weeks now without a stinkie you are nearly at your first milestone, a month keep up the good work both of you

[flynt]

Thank's dinamic22...appreciated...the way I see it...it's all down to achieving the right frame of mind...for me there are no milestones...I am a non smoker and will stay that way permanently...I do not count the day's/week's etc...tbh when I posted last night I had to check the date of my original post to work out how long it had been since I last smoked...I really hadn't thought about it in real time until then.

I know that for many counting the day's/weeks is how they cope with the "withdrawl" symptoms they assume they are suffering from...and being able to mark/celebrate a "milestone" gives them a huge confidence boost...but it's all a clever illusion perpetrated to make smokers think they are actually "giving up" something they enjoy.
We are all being brainwashed daily by the smoking cessation brigade and the Govt. into believing we are making a sacrifice by "giving up" something we actually enjoy...what's to enjoy about coughing your lungs up every day...smelling like an ashtray and voluntarily poisoning yourself?.

The Govt DO NOT want us to stop smoking en masse...they would lose far too much revenue...so they dupe everyone into believing they are against smoking with half hearted anti smoking campaigns while using carefully orchestrated words/phrases and advertising media to keep us addicted...aka Psychological Classical Conditioning...and the majority of us accept all the claptrap they feed us.
Words such as *withdrawl symptoms* *habit* giving up* *craving*
It's not a habit...it's an addiction...but although Nicotine is one of the most addictive poisons known it is also the easiest addiction to stop.
I recommend everyone should read Alan carr's Book...The easy way To Stop Smoking...it really will alter your perspective on how/why you smoke and how easy it really is to stop..note I say STOP not *give up*.
*climbs down from soapbox*

On another subject...nice to see a fellow West Yorkshire resident...we're in the Ponte area.

Good on you both

[flynt]

...just a quick visit as I have lot's to do on'tinternet tonight but thought I should give you all an update...yes we are still vaping..."no we do not miss the "old smelly way's"...3 months ago we started vaping on 18mg juices...we are now happily vaping 0mg juices...it has been a very easy transition for us...next stage is to give up vaping at some point in the future...no hard and fast plan will just see how it progresses.

Hope all is good with everyone...hope to catch up again soon.

I have only just seen this flynt i am only about 6 miles from you going towards Barnsley, well done on 3 months & well done on 0mg.

[Chrissie]

Well done to you both

Always good to hear from you flynt

[chykensa]

Excellent news flynt, and well done both of you. It's great that you are both on zero nic, and planning to give up the vaping altogether.
I know that some forum members will be holding a hand to their mouths and gasping in horror, but if that's what you both want to do, more power to your elbows. You have kicked the dreaded tobacco, and that's the most important theme here.
Please keep up posted, we would love to know how you are getting on!

Seriously though, we do have a fantastic community side to the forum

Sorry to hear the mound (knoll?) has gone down hill (pun intended) I have so little to do with ebay these days so just couldn't contribute any more
