Strange story (or maybe not) but true,being a bit messy with my tobacco,I managed to trap a strand of amber leaf between a battery and carto,its probably not advisable to do this purposely,I was vaping a TW tobacco flavour at the time and thought to myself this is so much like my roll ups

Tim, when I couldn't get any satisfaction I would drip, in fact, I soon found that most of the time I preferred dripping, for me, all the stuff I bought, nothing compared to it, all the atty's and carto's are fine for a 'period' and for out and about but never delivered enough consistantly to keep me happy, we are all quite different and need to find the delivery to keep us content, as much as I like a bit of fruity flavours here and there or menthol here and there, a few puffs and thats it, back to my baccy flavours. Luck has it that the 306 was out there and my baccy flavour, now used in the RDA or I may well of had a few fags along the way, and if I had, then fine, no big deal, if we dual fuel it's no big deal, lots of people do

Tim, no one says you have to give up smoking at all when vaping, nor do you have to stop smoking completely as soon as you start vaping. This is your personal journey. Everyone is different. It took me 5 months of vaping and gradually cutting down the stinky sticks before I was just vaping alone. It took that long for me to find a good setup and find a juice I could vape day in, day out that seemed to satisfy like a cig did. It was in the last few weeks of cutting down as well as vaping that cigs started tasting nasty to me and I would puff away on my pv as soon as I'd had a smoke, that's when I knew I could say good bye to the cigs. I haven't missed or wanted one since.
Don't beat yourself up. If you have anything that can increase the volts, turn it up when you crave a cig or get a higher strength of nicotine for when you need it the extra. Vape for a bit (even vape in the place you smoked) and if after 5-10mins you still want one, have one. I also second trying the cigarillios and the new grande from house of liquid, they're the closest you're going to get to a cig. I can say that because I don't sell tobacco flavoured juices lol
Don't stress it, take it step by step.

Finding a juice that you find satisfying is as challenging as finding a vape delivery sytem you prefer. All I can suggest is try a few of the recommendations. I found that there are a few juices that deliver a sufficient 'analogue' experience: Grizwalds Blackcat, 555 from Britvapes and plain old Dekang Marlboro..but as taste is so subjective it may not be to your taste. The menthol suggestions work too ( for me ) when you just need a hit, I didnt smoke menthol cigarettes but a strong menthol vape certainly hits the spot.

Had another roll up earlier :-[ ...and yes still beating myself up over it, especially as I'm definitely not a proper vaperrer as Cocomel tastes like Melon The good news is that the roll up tasted yucky, so I went to my cartomizer storage and vaped a menthol, until it reminded me of the dentist, treated myself to my Pixie Ginger-Biccies - that got rid of the menthol taste, then I vaped some Banana, as I felt I needed something to refresh me, that was nice so I then had some mint choc ice cream, then I realised I wasn't getting much of a throat hit, so I topped up my Clearomizer with more Caramel Cappuccino and I've been vaping that since about 9pm. I mustn't do both, it has to be one or the other, that was the deal I made with myself...........I mean, Pixies would lose their gym membership, Grizwald probably wouldn't get his supper, and as for At from Ukecigstore, ee's from London, the cost of living is astronomical down there, and then there's Health-e-vape, they might run out of space a I haven't bought any more banana juice off them, and as for Digismoke, well they might disappear in cloud of 1's and 0's - trying to put a humorous take on it ....it's not working Was going to start the Golden Burginia, or the Caramel Tobac, but I came inside instead, it's cold. I think we've been put in a time displacement field in regards to months of the year, we had Jan, Feb, Mar, April, April, April, April, ...........still we have april showers

I had to double check myself last week. Everything I vaped tasted of nothing, I have been there before, so instead of vaping I went in the garden and chopped down a very large bush that was in the wrong place and was irritating me. After 1 hrs hard work, came back in, cleaned my teeth,went through the stash in my High mg box and vaped 20mg Apple tobac, boy did I taste that, when I had had my fill I changed down to 12mg and I am now back to 8mg which I can vape quite comfortably and am now tasting liquids. # #

Like everyone says, don't beat yourself up. Nicotine addiction is an ADDICTION and we are all addicts and therefore we are often powerless with our addictions (that's what they say in AA anyway).
You had a fag....well...it wasn't the best.....but now you're having a vape.....and the birds go on tweeting and the sun goes on shining.....for now.
I personally could never touch an analogue ever again. Whenever I used to quit fags, I'd smell someone smoking nearby and I'd sniff it up like in the Bisto advert and go, Mmmmm. Now, if I smell someone's fag smoke I pull a face and go Yuck. Vaping totally does it for me.
Have you tried all the well known famous tobacco juices that everyone raves about? The Bobas County, the vermillion rivers, the various 555s and RY4s?
Yesterday I mixed up a bit of Black Cat with a bit of caramel tabac with a coupla drops of raspberry truffle. Kinda nice.
Hey. Here's a thought - what about getting your hands on some nice fresh tobacco leaves - something maybe which hasn't been loaded with 4000 death-chemicals, and steeping them in some VG or PG, or some 555, and then filtering them out and vaping the juice....would that work?

Oh,how i long for the stinkies to stink and to be repulsed by them.But they dont,and im not.I didnt start vaping to give up though,i wanted to cut down and save money,thats what i have done.I am fully aware of the smell i give off when i have had a fag,but as mentioned,i am an addict and addicts turn a blind eye to the facts.I do hope that 1 day i will be a true vaper but if not then i am not going to fret about it.Well done to those that are though

When I get a lift to work with a smoker, the car smells dreadful, but it still smells really nice when he lights up. I know, I know, I'm odd!
