My name is Paul. I am 37 years old, from Mirabel, Quebec, Canada. I'm originally from Welland in Southern Ontario. I'm married and have a son.
I'm a Long Haul Truck Driver for Challenger Motor Freight. I use an Electronic Cigarette. I am not a vendor, salesperson or store owner.
I smoked tobacco cigarettes for 16 years before I was able to finally quit. Trucking did not help. Smoke after smoke after smoke. I was smoking 2 packs a day before the switch to my Electronic Cigarette. It took me 7 days to completely quit tobacco. I tried everything in the past, NRT, Prescription drugs. Nothing worked, until my ECIG.
YES, I'm still addicted to Nicotine, but compared to cigarettes it's nothing. 95% safer as per Public Health England. No worse than my coffee/caffeine addiction, and I love my coffee!
As of January 7th, 2016, it has made 6 years that I am Tobacco free.
How do I feel?
Great, awesome. I have honestly not caught a cold since I switched. No more lung infections, no more nasal infections, no more smokers cough. No more of the many problems I had while smoking tobacco. My lungs have cleared right up. My family doctor is so proud of me, and slapped a clean bill of health in front of me. Incredible.
Am I worried of any long term problems?
Compared to what cigarettes we're doing to me, not at all. Science has proven How safe they are If you compare them to cigarettes. Careful smokers, There is alot of misinformation and lies going around from our Public Health and Government officials, but that is the world We live in. People don`t like to see other people happy or enjoying themselves. It's a cruel world. Quit or Die mentallity. Very sad. Profits before Health.
To this day, I still use my Electronic Cigarettes/Nicotine Vaporiser and have not touched any form of tobacco since the switch.
Vaping is not going away. It's here to stay wether they like it or not.
Vaping saved my Life!
Vape on!
Sincerely,
Paul Beauregard
