  1. I use a vision spinner 2 with protank 2's. not too bulky, but not too delicate either. Also love the Nautilus tanks.
  2. Welcome to the best forum anywhere! From the wife of a vet, I truly appreciate your service. Pull up a chair and jump right in. Friendly group, lots of knowledge, and fun!
  3. I have both the mini and the regular Nautilus (with adjustable airflow). I prefer the latter. As to better tanks out there, well, I'm too new to vaping to know that one yet... So sorry to hear about your dad. Hugs!
  4. Funny how a topic that was started about the joys of paying it forward took this turn that I need daily. I am only 552 days sober. Alcohol is my downfall. I was the good girl. Didn't drink growing up, never did drugs. Around 5 years ago, started drinking, daily. It got out of control. Discovered my depression was the cause. I know now, drinking just makes things worse. Hubby on the other hand, spent 6 years addicted to speed. I enabled him, cuz when he was high, he was happy. He managed to kick it, cold turkey. Feels like between the two of us, we have been through the wringer. Refuse to go back to that life. We may not always be happy, but we are no longer killing ourselves. Feels good to know that.....
  5. Funny that you mentioned the one up stories. Thats what got me. I couldn't take it anymore, I knew I had to leave. It was like everyone needed to have been in a worse, darker place than the person before them. I decided my mental health was at stake and knew it was time to go. I know it works for many, just not for me. Yes, I got sober, yes I stayed sober, but yikes! My poor brain and nerves were a wreck the whole time.
  6. agreed Jason. I did do a 12 step, for almost 9 months, and if anything, it pushed me back into my addictions. This forum has managed to become my safe place, I come here and know that people will not be looking to harm me, only help. Best place ever.
  7. I'm currently chain vaping Holy Grail's "Cream Supreme". Its a vanilla cream w/ graham cracker crumb notes. It is delicious! I highly recommend it. Holy Grail also has one called "Berry Confused" that is also amazing.
  8. welcome! You have found a great site!
  9. Exactly! I discovered that tobacco flavored juices don't work for me, so I had been given some, and I regifted them to another vapor that loves tobacco juices. Any help to another person is still help!
  10. So, many of you jumped in to help me get started with vaping, whether it was w/ juice, back up battery or replacement parts. I appreciated every single act of generosity more than I can say. Honestly it renewed my hubby's faith in people (he is extremely jaded). That being said, money is still extremely tight, but since I have received so much help, I decided to try and help others when I can. Started with the guy that works at the store by my house. He recently started vaping to kick smoking, and I noticed that he was using nasty gas station juice. So we brought him one of our bottles to show him that there are really good quality juices out there, along with a few recommendations on where he can buy quality juice. Then last week, hubby was approached by a guy at work whose dad is a 30+ year smoker who is dealing with several hope issues. He was asking hubby what all he should buy his dad to get him started. So, hubby, knowing that I have been on this forum night and day asked me to make up a list. I decided to do one better. I put together a vape package. A battery, a tank, and extra coil, plus about 6 different juices in varying nic levels. I included a note with a link to where to buy a charger (I didn't have an extra, and links to online stores with great juices(dad doesn't drive). So, I will continue on this path. I already feel so much better without smoking. I want to spread the wealth! So I am challenging anyone that has received help from the vaping community to jump up and help someone else when you can. If I have learned one thing in this journey so far, it is that people want to ask for help, but are too embarrassed to do it, and we can offer help! Hugs to all of you!!!
  11. glad to hear it wasn't just me! lol Gotta say though, the two juices that I did buy, I am very happy with!
  12. I googled it for you. I don't see any coming up soon, but apparently there is a Vape-A-Palooza in Atlanta, GA in August.
  13. Welcome! Glad you are on the right road now! (many of us took the bumpy road to start out). And I too agree on Space Jam juices, hubby and I currently are using Galactica and Andromeda. But as you continue this journey you will find many many great juice companies. Michelle
