Hello
Well I am just writing this as i am not sure what to think . I have managed to stop smoking
and even more remarkably i actually feel ok about it. That is , happy and comfortable this time
being smoke free. The only thing is , well i found that snus didn't do it for me unfortunately. I found that the
e-cig was the thing for me . Not to say i don't like snus, i do... i just think what may have been more of an issue
for me was the hand to mouth inhalation thing, rather than the nicotine per se. Now i am settling in to my new life however
i am starting to find - almost immediatley- ways of making myself anxcious about it ! I just don't know what to think about these
e-cigarettes. It seems that if you ask someone who uses them their opinion on the things , more often than not you'll get
something along the lines of the 'safe as a cup of coffee' routine. They're seems to be a need to justify something there ... there's
something a little shrill and unsettling about the way the guys over at the e-cig forum get about their beloved devices when they
come under criticism in any way. But then other extreme seems to be the Luddites and reactionary anti- tobacco militia who refuse to give
the poor old e-cig any ground at all as a "safe alternative" or even as an alternative. I don't know . I don't feel comfortable with them 100%
and feel that i trust snus a great deal more . Maybe the answer is to supplement vaping with snusing , reduce my intake . It seems a little ridiculous though to be dependent to such a degree on.... whatever. I do feel better physically than when i was smoking, thats for sure. But not as good as i did when snusing. I went for a bike ride today and was shocked at how unfit i have become, which may have more to do with recent lazziness than either vaping, smoking or snusing; I did definitely feel chesty though and my breathing was labored in a way i don't think it would be if i was not vaping . I think they are harmful to the respiratory system , or rather they aren't good for the respiratory system - no shit!- I suppose the question is now just how bad for you they are . They do seem to have some pretty serious and reputable sounding people behind them though, who seem enthusiastic. I don't know . I was thinking though : all htis talk about the toxicity levels found in the vapor , about the safety of inhaling propylene glycol etc. I was thinking it is one thing to know whether something is harmful , posses harmful properties and another to know exactly what physiological effect it may have on the body. Banana's for example are not toxic ; but say if i was going to swallow 50 whole bananas every day for ten years , there would almost definitely be some detrimental effects to my digestive system , my esophagus. Tree's are all well and good but if you drive a buick at 70 mph into one head first they can be quite harmful .
Anyway i am rambling along here and not really making any real statements about anything, but i suppose i am after some impartial - or not- opinions on the e-cigs from people here .... asking what people think at the e-cig forum seems a bit like your Mum whether your attractive or not any ideas , thoughts, premonitions ?
