I have made several attempts at quitting smoking over recent years. However I had vowed to no longer smoke at teh age of 50 which was January 2016. The idea was to do the whole mental preparation thing and cut down with a cold turkey event at the start of January 2016.

I had tried vaping a couple of times before and knew that this was a fad and unhealthy and would not work and that all vapers were silly and so forth and so on, so it was never my intention to replace cigarettes with vaping.

Friends of mine were immigrating to England and came to stay with me at the start of December 2015 awaiting final departure overseas. They were serious vapers and even ran an online vape shop for a while so they knew this game pretty well.

I was preparing for a 4x4 weekend away when they handed me one of their devices requesting me to just give this a try despite my opinion of their hobby. And that is how I unintentionally quit smoking on the 4th of December 2015. I did fall of the wagon two times, I must admit, but that was due to me cutting back on nicotine levels too quickly. (They taught me DIY and coil building as well.)

I have not had a single lung infection since, something that would lay me down at least twice a year before. Energy levels, moods, clarity of thought, to many things to mention in fact have all improved.

And that's my story, thanks for listening.

Regards
