Are E-cigs okay?

Hey everyone I recently quit smoking and started vaping. I notice that now I vape more than I used to smoke. I feel better but I'm wondering, should I stop now while I still have the chance? Is vaping all good? I absolutely love it but I don't want to get further hooked on nicotine. I feel like E-cigs may be as evil as cigarettes alone because they're still carrying the most addictive substance known to man. Also can a plastic/metal tube be safe to inhale vapor out of? I think this is too good to be true.

Is nicotine itself even that bad? Its addictive but all the research I've seen says its non carcinogenic so if the thought of cancer is what scares you it really shouldn't be. At least the nicotine won't give it to you. And yes cigarettes cause cancer im not delusional, my understanding is you get addicted to nicotine in cigarettes, which require you to smoke lots of other cancer causong chemicals, that aren't present in e cigs.

Hey if you can quit and not go back to the cigs, more power to you. I know I can't. As soon as I stop vaping I'll be right back to smoking. I'm thoroughly addicted to inhaling stuff, I've found that it doesn't really matter if it's vapor or smoke. I can go all the way down to 0 nicotine juice and if I quit vaping then, I'll still be picking up a pack of cigarettes soon after.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

Nicotine reportedly promotes short term memory due to the stimulating effect. So do many other stimulants.
It is not good for you. It is not healthy either. There are many complications on the cardiovascular system from nicotine use.
With that said, I would rather vape then smoke but eventually I'll be putting my ecig down for good.

IF that short term thing is true.. it sure didnt work for me..
i think thats kinda bullshit.
i think EVERYBODY that is thinking about smoking should turn to ecigs as a way out. its healthier and you can actually taper off of the nicotine..

Interesting fact ive heard and experienced with nicotine, but have no source to back up, that if you find yourself taking auick puffs off a cigarette (or ecig) you more than likely are using it while busy, or find smoking gives your small bursts of enerfy throughout the day. If you take long slow drags off a cigarette or e cig, you probably view smoking as more of a relaxing activity, and you probably do it after a task instead of during.
Idk no way to prove it, i could probably find the source if i actually looked, but personally it seems accurate, how about you guys?

If you can quit now then do it, even if it costs less than smoking, vaping costs more than not vaping. I guarantee if you vape through that liquid you'll get more. Then you'll have just replaced a deadly habit, with a useless habit.

You make a great point actually. There really is no point in doing this

E-cigs are pretty lame. I'd recommend just quitting cigs and e-cigs altogether.
Free your hands, get more time, don't look like a crack-head, and let your lungs breatheeee free.
