After smoking for over 30 plus years, around a pack a day, I decided I had to do something to stop. I wasn't going to go on medication that will give me suicidal thoughts and I didn't want to pump nicotine in my body with a patch that stops working once you take it off. I'm also sick of paying $10-13 a pack in New York. Electronic cigs make sense to me.
