Kicking the nicotine habit..

[ChrisZimbo]

Any of y'all do it recently. I'm just curious how bad the cold turkey is. Im hitting about 25-30 a day. It's fucking bad, and i made a committment that i would kick the habit completely on Monday. Shiiit..im going to shiver like fuck ain't i? :laugh"

^lol. I'm not sure but my friend looked like a crack addict when he stopped and he only lasted one day.

^ lol, a cold turkey sandwich will only keep you going for one day. Nicotine isn't a fuel, sugar is. It is true when people say you are what you eat. Diet is number one when it comes to intake. Cigarettes should be considered a form of intake, and are no good for the diet, as they suppress appetite. I consult my encyclopedia of the human body and it clearly states the best intake for the body is good healthy food. The body doesn't need nicotene. It is a mental dependancy when it comes to smoking. Though I do like a good fag after and with a good drink.

I stopped cold turkey like a year ago. The first 3 days were fuckin horrible!!! But after that it wasn't as bad and slowly it was like watever. I stayed off of smokes for 4 months but meh i started again recently.

Yeah i quit smoking cold turkey on Jan 31st so it's been over six months now since i had a cigarette. Cold turkey is the way to do it since trying to smoke less and less every day/week is just going to keep you in the habit. the first days are obviously the toughest and for weeks you'll get random cravings (especially while drinking) and you'll even be dying for a smoke when you watch a movie where the actors are puffing. however, it gets better. after a few months the cravings diminish and the temptation, while still there, is hardly strong. Almost all my friends smoke and i was able to do it, so good luck to you. The thing is, you have to be serious about quitting. There's no point in trying if you're going to half-ass it.

I stopped cold-turkey about 4 months ago, with no problems at all.

Impossible, smoking helps me fight against my cravings for blow.

 

[stefanwzyga]

I been stopped for 8 an a half years. I think you got to have a mental toughness to stop, just dont be a wimp! fight that shit.



Euphanasia is correct in sayin if you go into it with a half ass attempt you'l never succeed. Even if your 99% you wanna stop you'l flop. You got to really want to stop, its a complete lifestyle change.

^^ Yeah, I think after only a year of smoking cigs and hookah I've been experiencing heart problems. Get those weird stabbings and pinches when I lie down to go to bed. It's gonna be a big change for my buds upstairs who do hookah almost every night and my other that comes over that knocked down two packs this weekend.

Honey, you're treating cravings with addiction.

I just stopped one day without even planning it. I've been smoking for over 7 years and it was not hard at all to me. I decided to smoke less and then just suddenly stopped without any serious reason.

 

[Da_Funk]

I'm glad I never enjoyed smoking cigs.

I get cravings for blow but I don't think we're talking about the same thing here

i was a virgin smoker for a while, only started cuz i heard how hard it was to quit so my plan was to do it two months then quit cold turkey. i made it two weeks and couldnt handle the taste anymore... then i started workin two jobs, not eating and not sleeping, so i did it to keep me awake and [slightly] alert. once again quit after a few days.

my friends loved it cuz i was givin away cig's left n right.

that's a really dumb reason to smoke....but it's the same for me for the taste,i really can't handle it...i used to smoke when i was drunk to get "higher" or when i was feeling the effect of alcohol was going down but i can't smoke sober,it disgust me....

 

[raywaters11]

that's a really dumb reason to smoke....

i completely agree
hence my quitting


and yeah i used to smoke when i drank, but quit that too. i know what actually kicked the habit for me... i was smoking a cigarette and flippin my ashes into a gatorade bottle, i accidentally got gatorade on the cig, and then smoked that. worst taste ever. if you wanna quit, just try that.



also, i smoke grape phillies before i play ball and when i drink
