    Quitting smoking....

    Ok so this is like the 5th time I've tried to quit smoking, Im working on my 3rd day of no smoking.. And I find it alot easier than the last couple times I tried...

    Not nearly as bad of cravings.... although I still have manorisms of my smoking habits.. I finish something, then get up like Im gonna have a cigarette, then I go "Oh yeah" and sit back down and get right back to work...

    So I am really hoping this is it.. If so I will save $2000 a year in cigarette money....

    Hope it sticks.. I don't need anything to send me over the edge..

    get the nicotine patches, they aren't cheap but you will save a reasonable amount by quitting.

      Good for you. I really need to quit too. I smoke cloves and have asthma, my boyfriend's been trying for awhile to get me to quit, but the second hand smoke bothers me less when I myself smoke, so until he quits, I really can't. I kinda want to at this point too.

      Good luck to you!

          Bravo on the decision.


          Tip: I've known several ex-smokers... just about all of them said that week 3 is the roughest. That's when the "reality" of it sets into the body I guess.

          Stick with it. Short of killing someone, tough it out. It's worth it.

            Yeah I got the patches, bought the 14 day supply...

            They help alot actually.. Kinda sleep shitty with em.. but shitty sleep is better than continuing to smoke while sick...

            I came down with Bronchitis, Strep Throat, And an Ear Infection all in one week... So now is the best time for me to quit..

              Thanks.. Appreciate it..

              You're right week 3 is a tough one.. thats where I failed on the longest time I was able to quit before...

              I've been smoking since I was 16... Im 25 now.. so almost 10 years... at a pack a day.. thats 73,000 cigarettes.... kinda makes me feel sick thinking about that....

                I smoked for 2 years and just up and quit about 2 months ago. It was not hard at all, I don't see what all the hype is about. fuck the patches, inhalers etc.

                I mean seriously, if you can't handle a little nicotine craving while quitting.. well.. you should just kill yourself!

                    when i used the patch/gum in 2000 they told me not to sleep with them since it fucks with your brain so much.

                    i'm quiting in may. Why? I have to have my wisdom teeth pulled. Very explicitly told if I don't quit before, there is a good chance of death due to complications with the lungs and the
                    general.

                    so...2 more months, then done.

                        Go get some cinnamon sticks to chew on when you get a craving. Gum, lots of gum, candy too. If you make it past the first 2-3 weeks you're golden. I did it 18 months ago with Zyban and I don't miss it. In NY it was almost $6 a pack when I quit...that's a shitload of money better spent elsewhere.

                              Dude.. I tried Zyban, and it sent me into a serious fucking depression... I mean really bad... I still have like 60 days worth left I think....

                              I guess thats why they issued that suicide watch warning for people taking anti depressants.. Zyban is the newer marketing name for Wellbutarin I think.....

                                      That's what I did and I didn't even get the last step of patches. I'm going on 2 months.

                                        Right on. I think I'm going to have to give it another go real soon. Too fucking expensive.

                                        Whenever I tried to quit, I had problems with drinking. Not that I'd drink anymore that usual, but if I found myself even slightly intoxicated, I'd cave and buy some smokes.

                                            Quitting smoking in college w/ all this boozin/partyin' would be damn near impossible!

                                                      Quitting smoking in college w/ all this boozin/partyin' would be damn near impossible!

                                                      I tried quitting during my finals once.

                                                      Needless to say it went badly.

                                                            Three packs a day? How did you even find time to smoke that much?

                                                                          When I really tried to quit smoking, I had trouble because my mind was messing with me. I kept thinking about badly I missed the cigarettes.

                                                                          Recently, I just was so distracted that I slowed down on the smoking to the point where I now go for days without smoking. I didn't even realize it.

                                                                          Now, I just smoke whenever I'm drinking.
