i'm in the process of giving up cigs, cold turkey style, it sucks, i haven't had a cigarette in two days. i don't want to give up but i set the time aside ages ago to do this so i feel like i ought to stick to it.

some people here are going to quit because they are putting the ban (and it's jail time for the offenders).
i'm certainly cutting back since i only smoke when i go out, but i still don't feel like quitting. like every sunday, i feel like i had enough for a while and am not craving for a cig. anyway, best wishes. |

I smoked about a pack a day until exactly 3 weeks ago. I have smoked drags here and there from my girl and a friend. So about a cig worth in 3 weeks!
Yeah, its tough. I agree, def don't buy them and keep your mind busy..

There's apparently some CD audiobook thing that explains "the truth behind ciggarettes." It apparently makes smoking seem absoultely disgusting. Ive heard about it from some friends and relatives. I'd Google it. Maybe it'd help.

You should definately stick it out.
Its unhealthy its bad for you it smells bad etcetc etc. Randomly I do smoke if Im very drunk.. but its never become a habbit. joy. I really doubt it ever would.. my mother used to but quit.. my father has since he was 20 and the way he coughs now is almost enough to make me detest it. The smell is what makes me not ever want to smoke more than once a month if that.

Plus there are way more fun things to spend money on and way more fun things to fill in 4 minutes with.

i haven't left the house in the last two days either, if i did i wouldn't be able to resist the temptation of going to buy cigs, and i've got the next two days off work to give my self enough time to get over the withdrawl cravings. i'm getting cabin fever though from staying indoors so long.

It's def. pretty hard to do. I haven't bought a pack in over a year, but still end up smoking a couple a month which is still better than a pack a day. I still fiend though!!
The best advice I could give would be to try and get really excited about quitting and look at it as a whole new chapter of your life.

I smoke, I want to not smoke, but I havn't really tried to quit seriously. I'm 18 and feel like I'm fucking myself up, and it all became clear recently when after a weekend's heavy smoking I proceeded to lay one of my friends, and kept goddam coughing when I was in bed with this girl. She smokes, so she understood, but it was precisely the most unattractive thing I could have done there.
I should be in good heath, but I wheez like a motherbitch when I walk up any hill. I smoke about 8 roll-ups a day, smokers, have I passed the point of no return? |

anything more than 3 cigarettes a day leaves you with a habit or worse.

pox here's a useful tip from someone who's quit, successfully many times (ha ha ha) part of the soothing power of the smoke is not necessarily the tobacco itself but the fact that you enjoy a deep drag of the lungs. so, suggestion-- when that monkey is on your back, take a drag of air-- just as if you were puffing on your favorite dunhills-- or whatever it is you smoke. that's right-- smoke the atmosphere. just like kids pretend, you know-- but with the hunger of the addicted. just try it. it's got me out of more than one difficult situations. |

I stop and start again all the time. My suggestion, don't drink or do any stimulants. That's what always gets me started again.

Its defiantely soooooo easy to light up when drunk/high .
I'm on + off too . It's nice when I reach a point after weaning off and just the smell of cig smoke makes me wretch . After it has thoroughly released its clutches on me . i just hate the feeling of being dependant on a thing like that . The distraction of having a cigarette is so great and awesome and i genuinely love to inhale and smoke, but contrary to what is believed, cigarettes are so stressful on the body that they cause the depression rather than help alleviate it . Good Luck on kicking the habit , T+B . Try not to focus on it too much . Walk in the opposite direction whenever you feel the need for one . |
