Awesome Links, Amp and Baba! :thumbsup

I have tried quitting so many times but to no avail. I have to stop. Even this morning I was coughing so much I puked. Not good. :(

thanks :thumbsup

Very good information there.

its more than a week now, im in high spirit.
hard to quit but it only needs dedication and support
from your family members.

Good sites. :glugglug

bump - because chicks that smoke and give me a blowjob stink my dick stink my dick stink my dick stink my dick stink my dick

my situation is pretty bad. I come from a long line of smokers in my family.

i smoked heavy since i was 18 and never thought anything would happen to me but like when i was 25 i started to get terrible IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) which i believe was caused by smoking, and could lead to something much more serious. A year later i started getting atrocious psoriasis on my legs (so bad i can never wear shorts).

Im no wimp but if you think smoking is okay and youre indestructable, go ahead. just know im suffering like hell right now and it could happen to anyone.

havent smoked much for over 3 years... sure i have one in a month or something but extremely rare for me to smoke now days. life is too important.

Nice links -- I'm going to bookmark this thread and see if I can quit by the aid of those.
Stats so far: Quit date: about 5 minutes before posting this. Smoked so far: 1 sig.

i dont even want to click that link, the only time i managed to quit was when i was pregnant and at least i pulled that off but shortly after the baby was born i started again

Ok I am going to do it!! My gf and I made the chioce finally. Our quit date is set for Tuesday April 26th. Baba what is your nick there, we could use someone on our buddy list. :)

Just a bump of encouragement to present and future non smokers. :)

ive been clean and sober for awhile now.

no alcohol, no weed, quit cigs in 1997

I quit smoking because of that site. It's an excellent site. People need to learn about their nicotine addiction problem. And that's why I solved it.

Never smoked a day in my life but feel bad for those who do. I don't understand how it is legal.

yes and i havent had a glass of gin in 6 months. :helpme :1orglaugh

i am serious.

i dont expect anyone to believe me.

but it is true.

best way to quit is just plain "action" not words.

from my experience if you say "im going to quit" or you tell people "im going to quit", in reality you never do. if youre really going to make it happen, you just do it.

so you dont drink or smoke weed?

any exact reason why you quit? just wondering.

My Stats:
Your Quit Date is: 6/8/2004 9:30:00 AM

Time Smoke-Free: 314 days, 7 hours, 31 minutes and 1 second

Cigarettes NOT smoked: 9429

Lifetime Saved: 2 months, 12 days

Money Saved: $2,355.00

:)

Ok, obvious question: where do you NOT smoke?

Ack! 7 days... I WILL do this damnit!!!

Babagirls (of course lol) :)

Also, I've been keeping a diary (blog) of my everyday of quiting, check it out, it might help ya out some :thumbsup

That link can be useful to a lot of people.

okay that's one informative link.. also I heard that if you're gonna quit smoking be sure you'll never have to come back smoking again.. it will definitely (pathologically) ruine your lung tissues, the risk will be much higher... Usually, lung tissues are made up of long (epithelial ) cells if we smoke they will transform to a much tougher kind called squamous (mostly found in our outer skin) in time if you are on and off with smoking it will cause it to have metaplasia (multiple changes in cells) causing destruction to lung tissues..

Ok, I smoke... and cutting on a few sticks... maybe a few years from now, might be totally a non smoker...(but pls... i am in no hurry)lol

I use QUITNET as well..

if you knew what every puff from a cig was doing to your body, and what exactly you were inhaling, you would stop smoking immediatly.

Oh, and my recomendation:

DONT USE A PATCH OR NICORETTE GUM....if you're gonna stop, just fuckin stop! Quit putting nicotene in your system. Theres people that have been on the patch for YEARS because they are still addicted to the nicotene.

Takes only THREE (3) DAYS for nicotene to get out of your system. After that, its 100% purly mental addiction. Take those 3 days, suffer through them and be done with smoking for good. If you can get passed 3 days, you can stop. :2 cents:

fuckin awesome! :thumbsup

wow..that's a useful site...imma start spreading it to all my smoking addict friends!
thansk for that :)

I gotta quit also..but unless I stop going to clubs and people blowing smoke all around me it's too damn hard..quit twice for a year apiece and started up again

thanks for the link. I have quite smoking like 4 times.... i only smoke about 3 ciggs a day. i will quite for good real soon :winkwink:

Heres another site
http://www.allencarrseasyway.com/

that will be of big help if considered.

Thanks Baba Bookmarked! :thumbsup

thanks for sharing that :thumbsup

hmm. all this discussion....time for a smoke break. :pimp

To all those trying to quit, I salute you. Keep at it. It took me a while to quit. Finally quit cold turkey. Been smoke-free for over a year now. Not the easiest thing to do when you've been smoking for 18 years.

Im glad i listened to all the propaganda videos they showed us at school :Graucho

bumping this thread :)

Morality Bump!

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup
Allen Carrs easyway works like a dream without using any substitutes. I was surprised at how easy it was to stop smoking after 20 years of livving hell smoking 20 a day.

:pimp

good site, I'm glad I don't smoke

ok dam*it you guys convinced me

quit date NOW! *wishing myself luck*

thats the most successful way to quit, is to just STOP! :2 cents: :thumbsup

if you can get through the first 2 days, you'll be FINE!!!!!!!!! Just be strong for those 2 days, know that you're gonna have cravings (big time!!) and be REALLY bitchy...but day 2 is much better!!

Im on day 10 and i feel great both physcially and mentally, and the boyfriend said that i have been ALOT LESS bitchy since i stopped smoking :1orglaugh :thumbsup Dont give up!!!! Get'er Done! :winkwink:
