alittle2spoiled Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 My husband and I really need some help. We both started vaping back in November and it was love at first vape, we never picked up a cig again. In the begining we noticed that we were tired more than usual but the local retailer told us that this is normal when you quit smoking. After a few weeks we both started feeling much better and all seemed well for months but as time has gone by we are both tired all the time. It's gotten so bad that my husband comes home from work and as soon as he sits down, he's asleep and I have days where I physically feel like I don't have the energy to move and all I want to do is sleep all day. When we started vaping we were told that we were getting the dukang (sp) juice, then a few months later we were told we were still getting the same juice it was just in a different bottle but yet there was nothing written on the box or bottle other then the nic mg's and menthol and truth be told we really enjoyed the "new" stuff now months later we are told that he can no longer get that liquid and he really wasn't even sure what it was and he wants us to buy his new line made by a local vendor, we tried it and we both suffered from severe headaches and coughing fits so at this point my husband went online and bought a bottle of halo and I found a local smoke shop that carries Nova. The Nova 16 mg is amazing taste wise and I love it but by the time I got to bottle number 3 I can't stay awake and he's having the same exact issue. It's gotten so bad that he's decided to no longer vape and I worry that he'll go back to smoking again. At this point I have done more research then I care to, as for the Nova from what I can find, which isn't much, they are based out of California but it's not clear if they make their own juice and if it's pg or vg. I'm at a loss and could really use some help because at this point I'm worried that I too may go back to smoking because I feel terrible. Thanks in advance for any and all help!

Jeffb Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 You may want to cut down the nic content of your juice. Nicotine can cause lethargy and it can also mess with your sleep patterns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alittle2spoiled Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 Thanks jeffb! Is there a company that you can recommend for our E juice? We are both menthol smokers and we aren't having much luck at this point and also do you have a recommendation on pg vs vg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffb Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Sweet Vapes is awesome and Dayna makes your juice to order. http://www.sweet-vapes.com/ I prefer a mixture of 70% PG & 30% VG alittle2spoiled 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alittle2spoiled Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 Thanks! I just placed my first order with them. I followed your advise on the nic and lowered it to 6mg, since my husband loves to constantly vape and I bought 2 bottles one all pg and the other mostly vg to see if it was the pg or vg that may be causing us the issue.

alittle2spoiled Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 I'm strictly a menthol women.. When I smoked reg cig's I didn't ever wish it tasted like coffee or chocolate and considering I replaced cigs with vaping I just can't get used to flavored liquids. Maybe once my "need to smoke" is gone I'll venture out but for now I'm sticking with the menthol so I don't go back to those nasty cig's. I did do a little testing today after posting. I used the Nova for the first part of the day then the later part of the day I used what I believe to be the dukang (sp) both were listed at 16 mgs but after using the second oil I felt much better. I can't say that I was up running a marathon but I didn't feel like I was going to go into a coma. The interesting part is I'm ADHD and been on Ritalin since 2007 but I find that since I started vaping I don't need my medication for the "hyper part". I also notice that my husband and I both suffer from hot flashes since we started vaping. I'm sure there's an answer to all of this somewhere, I just have to find it!! Thanks again for all of your help and I'll be sure to update what I find with the new liquid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uma Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Sorry to hear about your drowsy state. That's no fun at all! I get it off and on, but I've always done that, even before vaping. (I'm a quiet type of person until I see a horse lol). You might want to try out some WTA eliquids. You'll have to research, to see if it's right for you. If you find it's right for you, I can highly recommend P-38 by aromaejuice . It's a beautiful menthol. To use the WTA, be sure to have an extra setup for just the WTA so you can easily use it during those times of the day you need it. It's not recommended to use it as an all day vape. Just use it when you feel like you need to. (after eating, during work breaks, before cooking dinner). I hope you get everything sorted out and on the mend here soon. I wish I could be of more help.
