    Quiting Smoking

    I want to quit smokng. I usually do 1/2 a pack per day. My problem is I still enjoy it.

      I smoked for about 15 years and around 2 packs a day for the last 5 or 6 years of that time. I quit cold turkey one day and never looked back. This cut back crap you hear about never worked for me, I just told myself one day "Tiki, you got a kid on the way and smoking killed your old man. When you finish this pack, that's it, no more, done deal." That's really what it takes. Good motivation. No bullshit cutting back. You gotta really want to bad enough.

      Once you do, you won't believe you ever did it in the first place. If i could do it I know you can too....... Good luck. I hope you succeed.

        I have been almost a year quit to the day. I went cold turkey, nothing but. I was in the same boat - about 15 cigarettes a day, and I LOVED smoking almost as much as life itself. Quit simply for the health benefits, no real other reason I can think of.

        What got me through it?

        A LOT OF FUCKING POSTING HERE.

          I was up to 50 cigs a day and stopped during one half of a cigarette on an afternoon...spontaniosly...I had four left in the pack and kept them in a cupboard in the kitchen for a couple of months to have some ready if I wanted to start again...and to see if I have the strength not to touch them...

          I did it like the anonymous alcoholics...woke up and told myself..."I don't smoke TODAY...we'll see what tomorrow brings"...cold turkey...gained 12 kilos and started to run again...fucked up after 2 km and thought what a stupid asshole I was to ruin my body that way...

          I can have a cigar in the evening now without getting addicted again...that means I smoke a cigar and it I don't get my little cuban, I don't have to...

            You can also smoke weed, if need be; all natural, so it's not addictive. No nicotine to keep you coming back, and it'll ease you out of the must stick something in my mouth and light it bit.

              Smoked my last cigarette 3 weeks ago, been up to 25-30/day for 30 years.

              I switched to toothpicks, saves a lot of money

                        So i'll just wait about 15 more years to be on the safe side.

                        2022 will be great

                          How much is a package of cigs in Germany?

                          In Canada we are up to $9 each!!!
                          It's all tax of course.

                              Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?
