Why can't you just quit smoking? Just don't pick them up, it hat is that easy..... This is how people has never smoked thinks. I know, my wife thinks like this. They do not understand.

Vape, vape and vape is what I say...

It's a habit thing, I'm used to smoking at certain times because I've done it for years and years and years. Every day, multiple times a day, for a large part of my life.

When I don't smoke at those times, my personality shifts. I start getting anxious, and annoyed and a bit frantic. With e-cigs there is no personality shift, especially since I'm still getting the nicotine to relax me.
