For me, vaping's been quite successful. Yes, I've had a few cigarettes since I started vaping, but I've had fewer in the 3 months I've been vaping than in 1 day of smoking.

I started vaping to quit smoking and it has been very successful. It's different than smoking and I had an adjustment period before I settled into vaping as naturally as I smoked a cigarette. Whereas I smoked a full cigarette, then put it out and did not light another cigarette for a while (about 20 mins), I started vaping and was basically chain vaping for the first few weeks. This worried me. But, now I am not doing it was much and my smoking has dramatically decreased. I think as long as you don't expect it to be exactly like smoking, you can definitely use this as a method to quit. I've tried other NRT (nicotine replacement therapy) products like the patch and gum and did okay with them, but still had the drive to smoke when I could. Now, I can go an entire day without smoking and really don't miss it much. I wish I had tried this years ago when someone first mentioned it to me and I ignored the recommendation at the idea of it not working.
