“Take my word on it: within five years, vaping will be under strict controls of one sort or another; either medical ones, so that you have to get a prescription for e-liquid, or commercial ones that make it prohibitively expensive (and stop the market diversifying). Either way, THEY will do all they can to stop the fun. So, take my advice, and get steaming while you can, because only that way will you have the opportunity to find out what it feels like not just to be an ex-smoker, but a former Vaper as well.”

Unusual to find someone with a serious drug
addiction who does not also drink alcohol and smoke tobacco
Although improving - many young peoples’

“Our results also suggest that while e-
cigarettes are not only safer, the amount of nicotine they provide is not noticeably different to conventional cigarettes. This can help people to stop smoking altogether by dealing with their cravings in a safer way.” Dr Lion Shahab, UCL

Many people recover from their Drug & Alcohol dependences but later die of untreated tobacco dependence. Smoking amongst substance misusers is an important health risk within a population subgroup whose general health may already be compromised. Substance misusers have a higher burden of both mental and physical disease than the general population... ASH Scotland (2012)

A third (33%) of people with mental health
problems (McManus et al. 2010) and more than two-thirds (70%) of patients in psychiatric units smoke tobacco (Jochelson and Majrowski 2006). Recent studies show that people with mental health problems are just as likely to want to stop smoking as the general population – and are able to stop when offered evidence-based support. However, support is not always available (Jochelson and Majrowski 2006; Siru et al. 2009).

The more I vaped, the more I realised that the vaped cloud was also beautifully expressive of the whole essence of vaping: for this was no crude organic process of combustion ending in ash and cremains, but a digitally-calibrated, electronic one, worthy of a brave new world!
