I have used an electric cigarette before. It was a "healthy" version with no nicotine and it didn’t help. Has the nicotine style helped anyone with quitting real cigarettes for good?
Thanks for the suggestion of Chantix, but I tried that three separate times. The crazy dreams got to be too much. The reason I ask about the E-cig is because I actually enjoy the act of smoking and the E-cig still gives you the sensation that you are.
I tried the electronic cigarette with the nicotine cartridges. They actually DO give you the nicotine fix that you’re addicted to without all of the other chemicals. It takes a good week or two of using one to make you realize how gross the "smoke" is from smoking real cigarettes. Occasioally I will buy a pack of cigarettes because I don’t have my e-cigarette with me or I didn’t charge up one of the batteries. I then get hooked on them again and have to ween myself off to get back on the e-cigarette. It takes some getting used to, but it is worth it. The nicotine vapors from the e-cigarette do not harm your body like the numerous toxins that are in tobacco. Good luck! It’s a hard habit to break!!!

My boyfriend quit with Chantix, I think that may be a better option. You have to be really motivated and want to quit, the biggest hurdle is the mental part. My chain-smoking grandpa quit cold turkey after the doc told him he would die if he didn’t quit, after his heart attack in the hospital.
Quit before you get to that point!

What the heck is an electric cigarette. I’ve heard of the those plastic ones but never this. I quit with Chantix and it works. My one year anniversary was today, 3/3. It’s my husband’s birthday and I did it for him. I am so happy. I also tried the gum, the patch and Wellburtrin. Nothing worked except Chantix and what I like about it is that it’s approved by the FDA. It’s by prescription but it’s worth it. Well, Wellbutrin is also prescribed, but the Chantix is the best. I smoked for 40+ yrs and If I can quit, anyone can but you have to want to. And I did.. Good luck, I really hope you make it. God bless.

YES i know 3 people who started using the electric cigarettes and all 3 have quit within a few weeks. you just need to slowly ween yourself off of them. they have many different cartridges with lower amounts of nicotine.
