I've gone all day without a ciggie!

I quit smoking cigarettes 6 days ago... this time want to do it properly.
Had only few puffs from a joint which friends were sharing... nothing more!

Damn I would never believe it to be true but after quitting smoking, it feels like my lungs are new. You can finally breathe fresh oxygen. Hard to describe but ex-smokers will understand

[QUOTE="El_Zo1212o"] "Souldn't have picked up a pack." That is smug superiority. And again, you're bring a dick. We get it- you're one of those whiners that sits down next to us smokers and chuffs out your little sissy coughs instead of sitting somewhere else where there wasn't a group of six people smoking.El_Zo1212o

Your problem is 100% preventable, genius.gamerguru100

[QUOTE="El_Zo1212o"][QUOTE="gamerguru100"] Actually, I move away, shit for brains. I can't stand your shitty smoke. Nice try though. gamerguru100

You should be safe after 6 days. However, keep in mind that there's no such thing as "Just one puff" or "Just one cigarette while I'm drinking with the guys" for us ex-smokers. That one puff will trigger all kinds of shit inside your brain and you will get hooked again. That's just how nicotine works.

Just think of all that junk dirtying up your lungs permantly. The fact that it's going to lower your life span, cost you money and a tonne of other bad things. I've never started, but I've got reason enough not to, and if I ever did, I'd look back on those facts to help stop.

Dude I gave up smoking 6 years ago. Cold turkey. I also gave up smoking pot at the same time. I use to smoke heavily between the two.

It was awful for the first few weeks ofgiving up but fast foward to today I am a different person.

I run 50 miles a week. Best shape of my life, and im sure I have alot more money now than I did when I was supporting such a bad habit.

Its worth it man.

i would feel so relaxed if i just had one and im trying not to think about it.

 

i do have some patches somwhere i'll try to find them

Just remember that cigs are shaped like penises and maybe you'll stop sooner. Fightingfan

my last cigarette was last evening at 9:50 pm. Right now it is 3:30 and I have no had a ciggy today but I'm getting the urge something fierce. Trying to keep myself occupied and also chewing gum but afraid I might slip....,gimme some motivation...PLEASE!!!

i dont even want a whole pack of cigarettes....just one and I would be happy.

well done mate keep up the good work.

i think you will have a few relapses once in a while, but if you keep at it, you will definately be able to kick the habit :)

best way to stop is to also give up coffee and beer.

it is hard to have a cup of coffee or a beer without also feeling like having a smoke with.

I lasted 8 years without a cigarette by also not having coffee or beer.

you can drink tea instead of coffee

[QUOTE="Rich3232"][QUOTE="gamerguru100"] Pretty much. El_Zo seems to be forgetting that it can costs thousands of dollars a year depending on how much you smoke. It's not just about life span. You might as well flush $100 bills down the toilet if you're gonna be blowing it on cigs. You're basically spending money to kill yourself. O_O

Going for a jog isnt going to clean the plaque off your arteries. But it will make your corpse look better in the casket.

I quit smoking weed 3 months ago, never felt better. Now trying to quit cigarettes but seems harder than weed.

I used to light up as soon as I got behind the wheel of my car. I used to light up when I played GW1. I used to light up when I mowed the lawn. For me, those 3 activities are most strongly tied to smoking... and not only didn't I give them up, I got over the cravings for a smoke that I had when I did them.

I live in a subirb where, if you don't drive, you don't get anywhere. I have a 30 min. drive to and from campus for classes. If I had to give up driving because I wanted a cigarette each and every time I drove, I'd be screwed.

It's completely about willpower, and getting over the pychological part of nicotine addiction. It's not "balderdash," it's fact. Once you do something that's tied to smoking several times, the cravings fade and eventually disappear.

[QUOTE="iowastate"][QUOTE="OrkHammer007"]That's not true. I drink a lot of coffee, and I've gone 3 1/2 years without backsliding. It's not what you drink or eat that affects your smoking, it's pure willpower.

you just keep telling yourself that everyone is the same and because something worked for it just HAS to work for everyone else.

remember for some people there are factors to consider.

health factors

medication and brain damage.

memory loss.

and perhaps other things
