Many people have now switched from ciggies to e-cigs, its a more socially acceptable and safer way to satisfy the nicotine addiction (atm)
Those who have, what would you now classify yourself as, a smoker or non smoker?? And to those who don't have that need to feed, how do you see the habit and its partakers.

Feeding a nicotine addiction, whether it's by chewing gum or vaping doesn't constitute smoking.
You have to be burning something to smoke afaik
I think 'well done'. It's great to see so many people ditch conventional cigarettes for e-cigs.
Also, many people use the adjective 'vaper', rather than smoker or non-smoker because it clearly is a limited term.
So on a health or insurance form what would you tick, smoker or non smoker?
Me too.
Me three
I'm not against e-cigs, they're cheaper and less harmful than real cigarettes you can't argue with that. But I'll call you an ex-smoker when you've quit nicotine, not while you'll be selling your body for a cigarette if you leave your e-cig at home by accident
Cross both out and write 'electronic-cig user' underneath. Let the insurer or health provider decide what they want to record based on the context they need the information for.
Non smoker. I haven't smoked a cigarette in over 2 years. I very much enjoy my ecig though.
And how do you see those that vape 0mg ecigs?
Well done! Its obviously a healthier option as far as we know, but aren't there still some health risks?
They still have a habit they cannot kick.
Smoking is also about doing something with your hands or a prop to use in a stressful situation, something to concentrate on.
I'm not saying its a bad habit but some do look pretty silly.
Nothing proven or documented. Ecigs have been around for over 9 years. There's yet to be a death by vaping recorded. I don't have any concerns.
the same as clean junkies who bang up water [or anything] for the needle fix.
You're right. It's like biting your nails or picking your cuticles. .. As for it looking silly. I don't really care how it looks to other people.
They used to think smoking was safe, and in fact a healthy thing to do.
Yeah, of course. Inhaling flavoured steam is just like shooting up with water.....
People do that?
they are addicts continuing the method without the substance, it`s no different, you asked what i think, there`s no need to be arsey.
yes they do.
The two main ingredients in ecig juice are found in many many foodstuffs - maybe you should worry about what you eat, and leave the unknown dangers of vaping to me.
Not being arsey - just find your comparisons pretty ridiculous.
how?

I'm glad you asked lol. I've not heard this before?
