Not going to make it.....
 

I can feel the tension growing with every passing minute.... I need a cigarette!!!!!!!!!!

I am not going to be able to do this... I am weak.... :helpme

What did some of you do to help you quit smoking?

Sun flower seeds. :thumbsup

I have been grabbin food everytime I get a craving... I gained 4 pounds today.... may have to try those... are they fattening?

cut a pen in half and chew on it/hang it out of your mouth like its a cig

***warning*** I got addicted to pens, if you dont actually quit you'll have half a pen on one side of your mouth and a cig hanging out the other. but it helped a little.

I stoped smoking 2 days ago..
sun flower seeds... regular gum

I didn't start :glugglug

2 days? have you cheated any? How is it going? I think it has been only 6 or so hours.... I am fucking dying here.... I have a pack a day habbit.

keep the ashtray away from the puter..

I just made myself two New Years Resolutions...one to quit and the other to stick to my resolutions. This was in 1999 and 5 years later I'm still cigarette free. I started smoking cigs at 14 and figured at that point that enough was enough.

If I was still smoking now, I'd probably be in the process of quitting. We can't smoke in public places here in NY. My buddy's bar has lost 40% of their revenue the past 5 months as a result of this shit fucking law.

carrot sticks, trident gum (the stuff that cleans your teeth) and lots of tall glasses of water

good one... but I am not allowed to smoke in the house... have exotic birds... not good for them

I would love to grab a smoke right now...
but am I a man not a pussy... I can control my body and do whatever I want with it! :thumbsup

Hey NB you have a grey right???

Male or Female??

I really don;t want to quit... I am just tired of paying the high fucking rax on them... I mean they just keep going up and up and up.... Hell, if I could grow my own... problem solved... plus.. it would be prue tobacco... not all the chemical shit they put in...

Hmmmm is it legal to grow your own tobacco? I may have to look into that. Hydroponic Tobacco lol

not sure... never had it sexed. but yes... I have a congo.

I would help you out and give you hints, but in the past year I quit 4 times! It depends what addiction you have also, like me, I get bored and need something to do, so I smoke, others are the nicotine.

jDoG

yea, i like to smoke too... out though... so i thought it was time to stop both at least for a while on the one... been doing it a bit too much lately. But I have always been able to put that down... cigs on the other hand... 24 hours was the longest I have ever gone... but I had the help of the other and I think that helped get me through those 24 hours. :winkwink:

never smoked but i think just matter of time if your off long enough it will get easy

oh i remember seeing a commercial by "the people of phillip morris" they show you how to quit lol

I never started.

With that said....Slam your balls in a drawer a few times and you will stop thinking about the need to smoke.

LOL!!!

Hang on......

SLAM!!!!!

Ouch!, damn, fuck... AAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!


Nope... didn't work... I need one more than ever now :winkwink:

yea, i think I remember those... we have a smokers help line here in phoenix too... I may have to give them a call... or, I may just break down and go buy a pack... and try cuttin gway back and gradually quit.

I'm a 10 year veteran. And smoked for 11 years. I quit cold turkey and i took it day by day. Tell yourself that it wont taste good if you take a drag.
Good luck:smokin

I was born with a high IQ so I never took up smoking.

eating and sleeping, the only thing to do.
I gained 30 lbs the first year I quit

ain't that right... got weak... found a butt with a little left... YECH!!!! that was a big mistake.

Hey dude,

go get some nicorette lozenges (they're called Commit) 1 lasts about 2-3 hours. They'll kill your cravings for sure. Im going on 3 weeks now no prob with them. over time, youll use less and less. Im on 2 lozenges a day now.

Shit... I am already 20lbs overweight... but that is old age and lack of exercise... now I have this to look forward to... Ain't life grand? :(

I do not understand those things... they contain nicotine, right? so, if I am trying to quit, why would I want to keep putting the drug I am trying to stop into my body? Just does not make sense to me. but hey... willing to give it a try.

because it will prevent you from smoking cigarettes. Youll begin to feel better, have more energy, look better, etc. giving you more and more reasons not to start up again.

Yeah, i know . It sucked majorly, but the american cancer society statistics say that they on average people who quit smoking have only gained 5lbs. after 2 years.

I guess they all get fat like I did the first year, then spend the second year losing it. :(

i had tried it all - the patch, the pills, the gum, the lozenges, the nocotrol inhaler, the marijuana cigarette replacement.

Cold turkey finally worked. I have a great support system - I was lucky. People kept reminding me of all the positives even when I had yelled their heads off.

When I resorted to pot to help me quit, I knew I had to just do it.

Night sweats, physical sickness, insomnia were the worst.

I've nevr had insomnia before or since, that is truly hell on earth. My doctor finally said, "You have to sleep!" He prescribed 1 valium before bed. That was the greatest thing ever.

good luck man, im gonna give it a shot for new years

Also, I developed this super human ( to me) ability to smell. I could smell a bag of dog food 2 stories away. I spent about 4 months nauseated by smells.

did you want to quit? That is my problem... I like to smoke... and I do not want to quit... I just do not want to pay the high tax on the fuckers... average almost 40.00 a carton... at the airport... in the duty free shop... 15.99 per carton... WTF is that shit? Almost tempted to buy a plane ticket to like mexico, go to the duty free shop and stock up... lol

you too... keeping my fingers crossed for ya :winkwink:

I had never wanted to quit truly before I finally did. I LOVED cigarettes. People ask me to this day, "How did someone like you who grew up knowing the dangers of smoking ever start?"
My answer is that everyone tries atleast one cigarette in their life. When I smoked my first one, I LOVED IT. It was such a powerful drug for me. As soon as I put my first one out, I wanted my second. Addictive personality maybe, I dunno. I just loved to smoke.

Drink a case of beer, then smoke around 3-4 packs of cigs all in the same night, the next moring you will either be dead or so fucking sick that you will never want one again!

I don't think I would have ever quit to save money. I did it because I wanted a long life. Suddenly my own mortality hit me like a ton of bricks.

not doing it to save money... I just think these taxes are unfair... on stupid fucker gets sick and sues, wins the case even thought there is a fucking warning right on the label..... now we all suffer from this idiot. They should have fined the tobacco companies, then froze the price per pack... afterall, they are the ones who have lied, they are the ones putting out a dangerous product.. yet the consumer suffers.

Did you know the tobacco companies got 40 million of that lawsuit settlement?

sorry... nerves are on edge... can you tell lol
