E-Cigs I am about to start. Quitting is the goal

21. They still contain nicotine...

10-18% of what normal cigarettes contain, but still addictive. As far as I know there aren't any side effects, but I don't think the FDA has done any thorough testing on these. I'm not positive on that.

I will say that for stopping smoking, I would not use this as a substitute. I would use it as a way to help combat the more difficult urges and cravings. Do what you can to go as long as possible without anything, but use this as a last resort. Ask yourself, is it really time for this? Am I that desperate for it? It's still got nicotine. That's why I suggest you use this with care.

I quit smoking nearly 5 years ago after a 2 pack a day habit for over 25 years. I was able to do it cold turkey after spending 2 days in the hospital. I stayed off by changing my daily habits. It's tough, but entirely doable. If I can quit, anybody can. I do believe that.
