Do you have proof of this? It's been proven by the royal college of physicians that vaping is more safer and 99% less harmful than smoking.

I do have proof. Would you pay attention to it any more than you paid attention to the dangers of tobacco?

How old ARE you?


There have been health warnings on tobacco since the mid 1950's.

Clearly nicotine isn't the most healthy of products, but it's deadly when smoked, but not so when vaped.

According to a) the limited studies so far, and b) my own eyes.

As for vaping being safer than smoking, is in my opinion, like saying running across a motorway is safer without a blindfold than with one. You're not likely to make it to the other side whichever method you try.

Using vaping as a method of weaning yourself of carcinogenic cigarettes is ok, if you use them to wean yourself off the banned weed killer some call nicotine. I despair when I read posts on here from otherwise sensible level headed people who buy the "juice" by the gallon, or even brew their own!

Just give up altogether! Admit your addiction, (it's not your fault!) come clean and realise you can live without nicotine.

I do. And so do millions of others.

Can't see the Marlboro man chugging on one of those metal machines.

Funny you should say that Philip Morris the owner of Marlboro have bought a polish Ecig manufacturer last year for over £1billion.

That's where I get mine from, but Nidge has mentioned Darkstar. Not tried them yet but they're half the price of Bluestar.

What's your opinion on vaping WITHOUT nicotine ? Just flavoured 'mist'.
If it was harmful then fog machines in clubs, concerts, special effects wouldn't be allowed, it's exactly the same thing.

Why would you vape without nicotine? Does anyone do that? Anyone?

The only thing that bothers me about vape machines is the clouds of steam that some billow out as you follow them down the street, and then the sickly scent of the "juice" from Apple to Strawberry and beyond. Yuk.

Apart from that, it's a free country, go ahead and kill yourself, just don't take me with you.

Nicotine is more addictive than heroin yet it's legal to buy. When a alcoholic is coming off the alcohol they're still given alcohol over a period of time. It's the same with vaping, I'm not doing it as a replacement for the ciggies, I'm doing it to get off the ciggies but over a period of time. Hopefully after Christmas around February time I'll be on Zero Nicotine then my vaping journey will be complete. It's not bad to say I started on 46mg nicotine 4 years ago.
