I started using an e cig to help me to quit smoking.  Once I weened myself off real cigarettes I then switched to a vaporizer so that I could step down the nicotine.  My vaporizer now contains NO nicotine and I only use it occasionally when I get the urge for a cigarette which is not very often.  I probably only take a few drags off in a week.

It's probably time for me to give it up considering all the warnings out there.  I can say that it did help me quit smoking.  I am 7 1/2 years off smokes and proud of it.

I do not and never will.  But when Vaping came out my first thought, was why would you think is safer than smoking?  Vaping contains nicotine and who knows what kind of chemicals it should be worse.  Here we are a few years later and my thinking was proven right.  Go figure.

Hopefully the vapers stop soon.  My son=in=law had just started and as soon as he saw the news quit which is good for him

I smoked cigs for a couple years and quit.  Decided to stay away from any nicotine at this point as I still get cravings to this day.

I have never done it but my sister did for a short time. Luckily she didn’t do it for long.

I have never smoked or vaped, but I know many people who do.  It is straight up bad either way.

NO - and it is terrible that people are dying from it.  Vaping started 7-8 years ago and it has just been recently there are problems with it.  Why aren't they looking into this?

Because of my future profession in public health, I am not a huge fan (or participant) of vaping. Several people erroneously believe vaping to be a much safer and inexpensive form of tobacco smoke. But with the emergence of the recent vaping illness outbreak, I tend to disagree with that statement.

Smoking and vaping do not interest me.  :-X
Opinion: 1) a view, judgment, or appraisal formed in the mind about a particular matter 2) belief stronger than impression and less strong than positive knowledge
This is the internet, learn to let people have opinions. And don't be so sensitive.  8)

I don't because my lungs are so bad anyway.  I used to smoke and wish vaping was around when I quit.  I think it would have been easier.  What they are saying is that the people dying are getting their juice from lesser sources.  Kinda like black market juice.  Maybe it's cheaper.  It you stick with the stuff that you're supposed to use, I think it's pretty safe.

Thank goodness I have never gotten hooked on smoking or have tried vaping.  Long ago when smoking was considered the "thing to do" and everyone thought it was sophisticated, I tried it on and off for about 6 months.  Every time I lit one up I would wonder when I was going to get used to it and like it.  I never did and eventually just stopped.  I probably could never smoke more than 4-5 cigaretted a day and rarely finished the entire cigarette.  Thank goodness again!!
