        Thank god vaping came along. I quit a 30year habit ON ACCIDENT. i had no intention of quitting, it just happened. It was all due to flavored vapor. I tried tobacco ones, but just kept smoking. #flavorssavelives #vapingsaveslives

        That was the same thing that happen to me. I was at Walgreen's and saw Haus Cherry Vape and figured I'd try it. It's a shame @Surgeon_General created such a disaster that Walgreen's and others pulled all of the vape devices off the shelves and left the cigarettes.

        It’s never too late to switch from cigarettes to vaping. I did at 68 years old and have been smoke free for 4 years. If you’re thinking of quitting smoking give vaping a try. You might be surprised how easy it is. Your local vape shop will be happy to help you.

        That is so inspirational!! I know we're just "anecdotes" but even so, if people try to quit tobacco because of our twitter stories, it's a win!! #vapingsavedmylife #WeVapeWeVote

        Prescribe prescribe prescribe... You have an issue? We have a pill for that. Don't have insurance? We accept bankruptcy. The costs of healthcare in America are ABSURD and god forbid you HELP YOURSELF. Isn't that right @JeromeAdamsMD?

        Unpopular opinion: I am totally fine with vaping among teens. Nicotine is a performance-enhancer (like caffeine in many ways) and the fewer teens smoking cigarettes, the better for public health. They are practicing #harmreduction.

        Just remember the #VapingIndustry did all the "Heavy Lifting" in bringing US Smoking Rates to the lowest in recorded history. "Anti-Smoking" Groups & @Surgeon_General turn on us, because we did their jobs better then them & might have even put them & #BigTobacco out of work.

        Your refusal to acknowledge the comparative benefits of #TobaccoHarmReduction and continued opposition to the use of lower risk nicotine products will only work to hurt the quitting ratehttps://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1808779 …

        I'm glad I switch over to vaping being 6 years ago. Doing so with a Mountain Dew flavored e liquid. Back then I was at 18 mg today 6 years later I'm at 3 mg. Tell me doctor that that's not an improvement. And there are times during the day I can go hours without vaping.
