SmokeStik and Smokeless Cigarette Failure

After over a month smoking only SmokeStik electronic cigarettes, I failed and started smoking regular cigarettes.  I haven’t started smoking regularly everyday but it is still disappointing nonetheless.  The main reason why I started was that I went out with a buddy of mine and started having some beers.  I didn’t bring my electronic cigarette so when he went out for a smoke, I cheated and had one too.  After have that one cigarette i had another and another.  The day after I was back smoking my smokeless cigarettes but after a failure like that, it’s easy to go back and have regular analog cigs.  So yesterday when I was out and about I decided to have another cigarette.  This time I DID have the SmoktStik smokeless cigarette with me.  I just wanted to smoke a regular cigarette and feel the cigarette buzz.

The bottom line is that using the smokeless cigarette can definitely help you reduce smoking regular cigarettes because sometimes all you need is the nicotine fix as well as the oral fixation and smoking ritual that you’re so used to, but do not expect the electronic cigarette to help you completely quit smoking.  You are still very much going through the nicotine fix, addiction and withdrawal cycle when using electronic cigarettes.  Is it healthier than smoking regular cigarettes all the time? Probably, but don’t be fooled into thinking that you are a “non-smoker” even when you smoke SmokeStiks.

My plan is to eventually quit regular cigarettes completely and smoke electronic cigarettes.  I may try to Luci or Cigana brand but for now im still enjoying the SmokeStik brand.  Admittedly, it is tough to always carry around the electronic cigarette with you, especially when you travel to places that may ban the e-cig, but for now I’m going to do the best that I can.

If you want to share your experiences with the electronic cigarette and the process of quitting regular cigarettes, leave a comment or shoot us an email and we can write up a post about your experiences as well.  We enjoy hearing about the positive experiences that people have when smoking electronic cigarettes as well as the negative experiences.  The more information that’s out there about these relatively new devices the better it is for everybody.
