E cigarettes?

I don't see anything wrong with you drinking either. As long as its an occassional thing. Everything in moderation. I too crave ciggarettes when I'm drinking, but I only drink a handful of times out of the year. I have been struggling quitting smoking for years so the problem definitely isn't the alcohol.

I don't know much about the e-Cigs. I popped in here to read the comments. But I think you should try it. I hope you come back and update this thread when you do. I would love to know how this works out for you.

Sure, nothing wrong with drinking...

...*unless* it makes you make decisions you wouldn't otherwise make.

That's where it becomes a problem...and that's what you're doing, so I agree with the advice to stop doing something that impairs your judgment to the point that you make what you know are bad decisions for yourself.

so everyone who smokes a cigarette on a night out after a few drinks has a problem with alcohol?

its a cigarette, not adultery or driving drunk. man. this makes my head hurt.

Yeah, that's a legit point.

I guess everyone has their own line when it comes to deciding whether or not it's a problem for them. Was probably a little unfair for me to impose where I think the line maybe should be on OP and others.

So what you're saying is you were wrong? :bigsmile:

No, of course not. Don't be silly.

What I am saying is that I was misunderstood...

...and that individual results may vary...

...and...

...uh...

...that is all.

Don't you ever change, jof!

I have a Joye 510 and I love it! Got me off cigarettes and feeling better than ever, and you can also get nicotine-free liquid for these if you only crave the action/habit of it. I tend toward the sweet fruity flavors with it and just that can get me through a dessert craving too.

My doctor, dentist, husband, family, and myself are all thrilled about it so I could care less what the haters have to say about it! Your boyfriend should be happy, it won't cause cancer and you won't stink!

I was a faithful Marlboro smoker, and my father smoked the same unfiltered Camels for years. What both of us found, is there are so many different flavors (and your sense of taste comes back from the dead) that you find many different flavors to try. I use one that is supposed to be like a Marlboro, but I like it better with some mint (menthol) flavoring in it, even though I never smoked menthols.

My partner found them more addictive than ciggs. needless to say hes once again smoking. He is going to try & stop but this time with patches only x

He might also want to ask his doctor about Champix/(Chantix in the US) I quit at Easter using Champix and it was EASY! like really really really easy and nothing had ever worked before. I simply did not smoke anymore after my quit date. I used to smoke at least a pack a day (maybe sometimes a few cigs more) for about 18yrs and I was a big habitual smoker.

The Champix was like a miracle drug

It sounds like you enjoy the feel of a cigarette rather than the nicotine. Since you only smoke on occasion, try one of the small ones in non-nicotine. 510, Blu, something like that might be a good choice for you. Do be careful if you opt for the nicotine version, though. It's easy to get hooked again whether by cigarette or ecig.

I smoked for 30 years and it took an ecig to finally quit for good four years ago. I didn't miss the stink and dirty ashtrays at all. So, if you feel you really must smoke something while drinking, it's a far better choice than a cigarette.

I am a smoker, period. I smoke with or without alcohol. I enjoy it. Bad to say, but I can admit it. I have wanted to quit for a while, health reasons and vanity. I purchased the Blu brand a couple of weeks ago and have not touch a real one since then. I am happy with it, not 100% satisfied, as I still crave a real cigarette from time to time, but cravings pass. It has helped with being moody, and it definitely has had a huge impact on my health in the short amount of time since I have switched. Many brands offer disposable options, so you can try them out and see what you like. I have tried xhale, njoy and blu. So far Blu is the winner, and I purchased the entire kit. Definitely saves on money in multiple ways, and no regrets the next A.M. Hope you find something that you like. Good luck. And don't pay attention to anyone that wants to talk down to you, you are asking for help, and that is all that matters, the will and want to better yourself. Just cause you are not doing it the way someone else would makes you no less of a person.
