Thats the only advice you need.





Me, 18 years and going strong.
If I wanna quit for awhile, i just do it.
And when i wanna start back up, i do it.

Its all in your head.
also, eating and treating your body shitty will make it crave the crap too.
just carry a water bottle and gum, and go to the gym, you will stop.
Totally agree with him ^^^ I quit cold turkey last 4th of July and havent touched one since and dont think i'll ever go back to smoking. Really bad and un healthy habit. Smoking affects you in so many bad ways.

1) Lung cancer
2) Damage arteries
3) Cardiovascular disease
4) At risk for Emphysema
5) Affect your blood pressure
6) Affect sexual activity
7) Believe it or not even though you dont smoke in front of you family members it affects them as well

STOP SMOKING!!!!!

I quit smoking in 2008.
I brainwashed myself into thinking it was disgusting (BECAUSE IT IS!!) and quit cold turkey.
What was really difficult was not to smoke while going to bars or drinking with friends.
If you have friends that smoke it makes it 100 times more complicated to quit.
If you beg them enough they will always cave and give you a smoke.
Its been so long I do not really recall if I had any sort of substitutes like eating seeds or gum, etc.

All of it is mental. Although I used the negatives as a fuel to keep from smoking, I also saw the pros as a huge plus.

Not smelling like ass everywhere you go.
Tasting your food.
Better teeth
Better cardio
Better Image
Extra money
Extra Time
Not Dying


Bottom line is if you want to quit youll do it, if you dont then find an excuse.
If you just started smoking then just stop now while you are ahead.
Going from a pack a day to nothing will never happen for some people, Do not let yourself get there.
Stop Buying them.

Oh I forgot.....

ITS F$CKING GROSS!!!!!!!!!!1



Edit: just caught this lol

This. I hate being around people while they're dipping. That stuff makes for even nastier breath than cigs.
The habits of dippers are awful, too... I work retail in grocery stores, and I frequently find dip splatter from where some dumbfuck redneck stocker spit his dip at the back of a shelf while stocking... It's fucking disgusting.

The misses slapped it out of my hand one time on a date before we started dating. Told me we would never get anywhere if i kept smoking. Worked.

I still smoke when I'm out drinking or occasionally after work, but that's rare and the pack will usually last me about a month.

I haven't had any cravings and i got ash in my eye from a friend's cigarette while sitting behind him in the car. I've gone a month before and im sure i could keep going with ease.

smoked more weed which weaned me off the cigarettes. Having Glaucoma as a legit reason to smoke helps.

a lot of my friends smoke, it's annoying hearing them bitch about how they want to quit/trying to quit but what pisses me off is I just think, "why did you start then?"

-you mean to tell me that now ill have to shoot the shit with my homies without smoking? hella homo
-have to settle for a sammich after sex? boring
-have a mint after a meal instead? argh
-stay inside the bar/club and just drink more? could be good
-no comment =)
-go to my break room and eat an apple or some shit?
-drive normally? *gasp*
-take a break from my garage and stare at my neighbors?
-read a book in my beach chair at the track? =\

those are the true idiosyncrasies that i am terrified of...how did you guys get through them?
thats the hardest part. driving in traffic sucks more. when you get a break at school or work, its like 15 min of doing nothing rather than a break. chilling with the guys just isnt the same. but then think about what all the people that dont smoke do. they still drive in traffic, go to work/school, chill with homies, and eat food.

at first i slowly cut it from my habits. i stopped smoking at school. no cigarettes during breaks. (sucked the most when i had a couple hours to kill between classes). then while driving. then only took a drag from a buddies when i chilled with them. then none when we hung out.

i smoked for at least 5 years before that, and all my friends smoke. friends i knew since high school, so im not gonna stop chilling with them after 6 or 7 years. the whole dont hang out with people who smoke thing is bullshit. its about you, and not your friends.

to be honest though, what really made me stop was my dad getting lung cancer. watch that shit, and you wont smoke again, even if you want to. but thats not really an option for most people.

i say, take small steps. if you said to yourself "youre never gonna smoke a cigarette ever again in your entire life," id say fuck that. but to not smoke in a car? thats actually doable..
