Any of you smokers manage to quit?
 

Hey folks. Im 29 and been smoking since i was 17. So. 12 years now ive been smoking. And i wanna quit, i do the typical on off thing where i fall off the wagon.

Any of you smoke for 10+ years and manage to quit? Any tips? Normally i just go cold turkey, ive managed to quit for a few months here and there. Longest i went was 4 months, but my girl couldnt quit and she started smellin like cigs so i just started again so i wasnt kissin the perverbial ashtray.

Last couple attempts i have bombed miserably.

How did you quit? Or have you been able to?


Oh yah, and to everyone who doesent smoke, for christs sake, DONT start. Seriously. Each time i manage to quit for a month or so i start feeling awesome. More energy, better mood, i feel great. Then i go back to smoking and start feeling like crap again. Do yerself a favor and DONT START.

they got a smoking ban that will take effect in a month or two. I wanna quit before that cause i dont want to think the only reason i quit is cause some ****ing hippy lobbiest thinks they need to make my decisions for me.

im rambling......

I started a couple months ago..LOL..oh well

i have a suggestion, replace cigs with weed! woohoo drugs FTW

ROFL, do yerself a favor and quit now. it will be much easier than quitting later. the longer you go the harder it gets, Besides, its gonna be banned everywhere sooner or later. Denver will be a very tence place on the 4th of july. the ban goes into effect on jul 1st. gonna be a lotta fights. lol

It becomes to embedded with yout daily routine and mannorisms that trying to quit feels like writing and entire 10 page term paper with no punctuation. it just seems wrong not to smoke, even if you want to quit.

All the cool kids do it!

:beerchug:

LMAO. Yah. I was a cool kid. LOL. Actually i was one of those gothic/freak kids. LOL. slashed up shorts, combat boots, fishnets, eyeliner and blue hair. LOL. I oughtta try and dig up a pic some day and post it. I looked like one of those retarded emo goth myspace children. LOL

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

dude if you don't post a pic, I'll shoot you



btw the whole "cool kids do it" thing is sorta true...I hang out with those kids, and theyve never pressured me to do it, but hangin with em long enough, you just say "what the f*ck, ill take one"

thats the truth. Nobody pressured me to do it, i just kinda started on my own. everyone else was doing it. kind of a passive peer pressure.

ill try to find a pic, none of those are digi though. and my parents diddnt take many pictures of me back then. LOL. i think i embarassed them. anyways, if i find one ill try to get a good digi of it and ill post it. lol

I can't say that was unexpected...:poke: :D

thats why im not ever gona start....

Lmgdao @ cheech....

I really wish you coulda got that ounce for me...I love the stuff, but I hate payin for it :(

That's seriously how I started too. It also makes drinking a beer x1000000's better.

don't smoke cigs but i know people that do and they say it's one of the hardest things to quit. I smoke weed but that ain't good for you either no matter what anybody says. My cough is horrible just from that. Good luck though, hope it works out for ya

but could you imagine life with out it? :)

It sucks trying to quit. I'm in the exact same situation. 29 now and started at 17. Smoked a pack a day for 12 years now. I tried the patch twice and cold turkey once. I'm going to try smoking cessation classes at work and if that doesn't work, here comes the hypnotist.

Gotta watch out for those hypnotist. he might buttsex ya while yer out. LOL

ummmmmm..........i plead the fif......1234....FIF!!!!! hahahaha

i like the up's of it.....but the downs suck!!!!!!!!! I've cut back a LOT.

haha dave chappelle is the ****

Damn Jon take it from someone who has smoked 20+ year's........



STOP NOW!!!!


I did'nt even start smoking cig's till after High School.Had smoked weed for year's but never smoked Cig's till I dated this girl that smoked.I've tried quiting a bunch of time's but it's so hard to stop something that you think you enjoy.

My body hates Cigs. I know if I even tried to addict myself with cigs it wouldnt work. EW@cigs.

nvr smoked so i dont have to worry....imagine wat its like to kiss someone that has just smoked a cig....well thats wat theyre gonna think when they kiss you...naaasty!

agreed!

I haven't smoked in a while. I started last fall off and on. I never found myself addicted to them though. It was more or a social thing where I would smoke when I was with certain friends.

if the girls lookz damn good..then that would overpower the nastyness

+1 I usually never buy em, I bum em :)

Cold Turkey after Smoking for 11 years. Haven't had a craving since 2001.
I got strong will power though, not like Badfish. He can't give up the 14 year old girls. http://www.mcmmotorsports.com/smilies/tease.gif

one can only hope

Hot damn man, congratulations thats awesome! I hope i can say that in 11 years! :punk:

i was smokin for a few months...

i just decided i didnt want to do it anymore and quit...

If ya wanna quit then ya REALLY HAVE TO WANT TO...

If you want to then it shouldnt be a problem...

personally, I dont get addicted to tobacco/ nicotine...

I have been chewin tobaco since sophmor year... so thats 4 years... 2 summers ago it got old and i didnt buy it for the whole summer... then a new flavor came out, lol...

If ya want to quit then just do it... dont buy ciggerettes and dont smoke em... it all comes down to self control... if you cant control yourself and keep yourself from smoking, then ya shouldnt be allowed to drive a car...

best of luck to ya bud :beerchug:
ya'll do ok
