I've never smoked/vaped and I do not plan to anytime soon, but I'm curious of how quitting is like once you're addicted.

I started smoking at 14, discovered vaping when I was 19, the first few months I was coughing up black goo, then once cleared my lungs have felt perfectly fine since. I'm 27 now and have no intention of quitting vaping, not for any reason, I just enjoy it. I don't like clouds though, so I've found my self using a vaperesso xros 3 mini and I guess amazing flavour but most important to me I get a nice lovely nicotine hit.

I know I'm addicted to nicotine, but because of vaping I don't find it necessary to quit my addiction, nicotine it's self isn't very harmful in small quantities, so here I am and probably will be until a doctor tells me otherwise.
