Hello everyone, I just wanted to share my thoughts on the e-cigarette. I was one of those who supported the use of it, any way you can quit worked for me. I now use the patches. I found that with the e-cigarette you might be setting yourself up for failure. It made it so much harder for me when I used it in the first week, Not only that, you have to break the hand to mouth habit which you will never do using that device. And forget saving money, you will find that the cartriges are going to cost you the same if not more than when you smoked. Trust me when I say I was a die hard supporter until I began to see the problems it was causing. I knew without a doubt that if I continued to use it I would eventually fail in my quit. I really honestly think you are better off without it. I know it is your quit and your life, this is only coming to you because I truly care about you and your quitting. I am here right with you struggling just as you are. I would just ask that you take a good hard look at what it is doing for you, I would hate to see you blow your quit because you did not lose the " habit" of smoking. Be well and good luck my friends.
