I smoked 22 years 15-25 sticks a day. I successfully quit with no cold turkey, no drugs, no withdrawal effects etc painlessly with no effort required using e-cigarette 1 year plus ago. I fully converted to e-cigarette from tobacco-cigarette with 1 week of e-cigarette usage.
I spend initially US$500 to acquire sufficient 6 months supply of e-cigarette but within 6 months, I also gradually quit e-cigarette. After 9 months of starting with the e-cigarette therapy, I fully dis-engaged myself from nicotine dependency & smoking hand-to-mouth actions. Now I am liked 18 years again, the year before I hooked on tobacco-cigarette.
Yet HSA (Health Science Authority) of Singapore said e-cigarette is BAD for health! Few months ago, I sold my remaining e-cigarette supply to another bro for roughly US$200, so in-fact within 1 year of e-cigarette consumption, I only spent US$300 & ZERO S$0.00 on tax-laden tobacco-cigarette. Now I know why HSA banned e-cigarette! Because now I DO NOT SMOKED anymore!
