I started vaping on 7-1-16. I had been so stressed out with my health issues that this was my last option. Things werent working. My normal coping measures. It did not work. When i first hit the vape for the first time the first day...i felt myself relax. finally for the first time in a bit. So while I may not have started vaping to get off cigs,I started vaping to control my stress and anxiety. And so far, it has worked for the most part.
