Yes, it also is a matter of what they call an 'oral fixation' with people who quit smoking, or are trying to. The 'feel' of something similar to a regular cigarette in your hand, the repetitive motion of drawing on it, not to mention the influx of nicotine and the water/glycol vapor, goes a long way. I smoked two packs a day for thirty years. When my GP threw down the gauntlet, e-cigs (and the patches, thank you alabamstopsmoking.com) made that dreaded 'smoker's withdrawal' non-existent. Four years, one month, and I don't want to look back.

I’ll attest to e-cigs helping to break the tobacco habit. When my wife and I first started using them, I noticed that I went from two packs a day, to less than a pack a day in no time. Funny thing is, I barely even noticed.

I haven’t quit my tobacco. I didn’t start with e-cigs for that, but I definitely lowered my overall consumption of tobacco by using them. For me, it’s an indoor/outdoor thing. We don’t light up in the house anymore, so e-cigs are the rule.

Eight years four months on my ecig.
And I didn’t turn into a tobaccophobic nazi when I smell burning tobacco. I rather like the scent.
