Why cannot so many anti-smoking professional see, that at that point of time, it is impossible to introduce total abstinence and yet there is a system on the market, that could help achieve the very thing these people want, which is to stop others smoking and nicotine can be used in a safer delivery system?

The above link shows there are Medical Professionals who can see e-cigs, electronic cigarettes, do have at this point in time to achieve the goal of stopping smoking. Reducing self harm, without causing stress, to name one undesirable effect. Please research for yourself, as there is a lot of scaremongering through lies, by supposed professional people, all because They Want and They Want it Their Way, which DOES Cause Harm. Thank you for reading my rant and may the day of cancer causing cigarettes end with forcing us nicotine addicts underground like some other drugs in this world.

When I quit smoking 30 yrs ago I did it by myself. I realized some of the things I needed. Like inhaling deeply. Taking a break as if I were taking a cig break. I carried cut down straws in my pocket and used them to drag on. Plus I was used to something in my hand. I even quit drinking at the same time as I was afraid I'd drink too much and forget I quit smoking. I ate a lot of carrots and celery sticks!  Good luck. Maxy

I agree that e cigarettes are better than smoking tobacco, though I chew tobacco, but e-cigs are primarily helpful with side effects, not the addiction to nicotine. Do research on nicotine itself, that is the chemical that kills many people, not just the smoke, though smoke inhalation does cause cancer and social criticism. Most people don't even know I am addicted to nicotine, because I don't smoke. Pure nicotine causes heart disease, adrenal burn out, and a long list of other illnesses, whether smoked, chewed, patch, gum, or e-cig. While nicotine consumed in a more healthy manner is progress, it is still really bad for you. Being that I chew, and don't smoke, I still feel many of the nicotine side effects, without the lung and smell issues that seem to be the focus of why e-cigs are so great. I am not condemning nor judging e-cig users, I simply see them a step, not the cure. I will quit nicotine eventually, as I know that any form of nicotine feeds my addiction as well as risks my health, which I worked so hard for in getting off drugs. Thanks for sharing this, I think that I would use e cigs, if I was a smoker.
