How long did it take to go thru 20ml of 18mg nic? How many analogs did you smoke yesterday? Did you also smoke today? That is 360mg of nic which would make even the most hard core smoker or vaper nic sick. I vape 2 or 3mg and only go thru 10 - 20ml a day but I have been vaping a couple years and wasn't a heavy smoker.

First, you didn't smoke anything. Second, an average cigarette delivers 1 mg of nicotine. Id you vaped 20 ml or 18 mg e-liquid, you got the equivalent of a carton of cigarettes in a day. You're ODed... NicSick... lots of water, toss that e-liquid in favor of something with a much lower nic strength, and consider calling a doctor...

I'd definitely feel sick if I had that much nic! You probably shouldn't have any more until your symptoms pass and then try not to have so much again. Just my opinion
