If e-cigs really helped you or someone you love quit smoking, PLEASE post here. [View all]

Why should you post?

Because lives may be saved. If an e-cigarette can get you or someone you know to stop smoking, their lives may be saved, they will regain their cardiovascular fitness, no longer smell bad and maybe stop hating themselves.

It's a good thing all around.

So please post your story or just give a "Yes. They helped"
