Quit smoking

Oh ya great live longer.... Thats nice. I had worked my way up to a pack a day. I want to thank you guys for the words of hope and understanding. It is day 5 and no one is dead yet. The odd thing is i have been wicked out of breath. I thought that was why I quit.
thanks

I couldn't have said it better myself I suppose. All i was tryin to say is that eventually you will feel those good things (or maybe that was just my experience the first time I quit), but moreover...do it for yourself, your future, and your life.

Hmm, well I honestly don't know why you may still be having problems with breathing...maybe working out all the crap or something. Again, I'm no expert, just my two cents worth. haha
 
I feel a lot better knowing that I'm not a freak for not feeling better right away.
I was a nice person before this. Sorry for coming off bitchy.
Ya us- happy, health, wealthy non smokers
thanks
 
My brothers quit smoking by chewing gum, eating vegetable sticks like carrots and celery, and sucking on Tootsie Pops.

Our dad died of lung cancer. It wasn't pretty!
 
Ok a week and a day into this. I guess maybe i feel proud but, not happy. I still have the urges and still get moody (and not good ones). I had know idea it would bother me for so long.
 
BLAH, ok so...

I took a step back last night. I had a cigarette. Please don't shoot. I was out with some friends and we were drinkin and cuttin up and they were goin outside for a smoke. I joined to just to keep company and I ended up having one. OMG i can't even begin to tell you how mad I was once I woke up this morning and realized that. I mean, I guess I could have had a lil more self-control but I guess bein fuzzy that that went out the door.

BUT..my thinking is this. I had one...ok so thats not good. BUT, i'm not dying to have another one. I realize the fault in my actions and hey, I made a mistake. I learned, and I'm trying to move on. I was goin to make up some excuse and be like "well its okay to cheat everynow and then," but honestly I don't think it is. So anyways, I just felt I should be honest with you all since there are some that are tryin to quit with me. Don't shoot me please. lol
 
I know thats who it's going to end up going down for me.

What's great is that you came out about it. You haven't let it get you down to much. And you don't do it today. Dude you bounce back from this and you might be my hero. Shit happens.

Learn from it.

The nicotine cravings pass after a few days and can be managed with nicotine gum or patches. It's not the nicotine addiction that keeps drawing people back into smoking- it's the habitual behaviors that will get you.

The hard thing to break is the habit and the behaviors that go with it. When your friends are smokers and it's connected with socializing and drinking, you have to break those habits along with the smoking.
 
Right dude, like when I woke up this morning it hit me when i tasted that in my breath and I was like, fuck did i go buy another pack? so i searched my room and was like, well I had one. So obviously im not over it all yet...But like I said, I know better, and I just need to work harder at it.

Dude don't think that it'll happen to you. you've been doin good so far, right? just keep it up and stick with a game plan. We all have our mistakes, and I just showed that. As long as we can learn from them and move on, thats all that matters

Understand.

Try to think of what made you WANT that smoke (cue) and then break that habit. Was it what you were drinking? Was it that you saw everybody light up and wanted to join in? Was it the smell of the smoke?

You're still in withdrawal mode so this is a tough time right now. Your body still craves it. It's tough but you have to break the cues.

Good luck!.... again.

I know what my main cue was..which was driving. I had discussed that earlier I thought but if I hadn't, I'm stating that now. I thinking its actually none of the above. I've been around friends that have smoked and have said no. I've been around people while drinking/partyin and didn't have any urges. I'm thinking it was more of the fact that I hadn't had one in sooo long and given that my temptations and self-control was skewed a little bit, that I gave in. Like I said earlier, I could just as easily right it off as, it's okay to slip up every now and then - but thats not my mentality. I discipline myself so much in life and when I fail I get angry (hence why I was so mad when I woke up). May not make any sense, but that's just me. lol

The point I'm making is that I'm still tryin really hard to quit completely. I don't think I was bad enough to where I would need patches or gum or anything to stop, I have too much will power. I made a mistake, (it happens), but I'm learning and hopefully I won't make that mistake again.

Thanks FW for the support
 
Well I'm not smoking. how i'm doing with it.... not as well. I am sure still having major urges, and have been in a bad mood for a week and 2 days. At this point i just want to see how long this lasts.

You are nice to ask. You have been giving some great advice to us. Thanks
 
Crap... What now i need a new years resolution. This quitting thing sucks. jk
thanks agian
 
I know this comment is gonna piss some people off, but I don't mean any disrespect. What is the moral to this story? Never start smoking. Aries, I wish you luck in your efforts. Hopefully, you can come clean someday.
 
I've quit drinking, but I can't quit smoking. Well, not that I've really tried hard. I keep telling myself, maybe next year. I think I want to quit, I just don't have enough motivation. Except when guys tell me my cum tastes bad, that's when I really think about it.
 
I was not into the whole quitting thing. I was not one of those guys that got all work up with a quit date and such. I had a cold and did not feel like smoking that day. The next day i got all Nyquiled up. By the time day 3 hit i was like shit i am almost out from the chemical addiction. Did not relies how hard the rest was going to be but what the fuck. More then a week in and I'm holding strong. Shit i still have a 1/2 a carton of lights on my counter.
 
Okay so, I've noticed this thread has gone quiet, if not dead. Seeing how all of yall have been doing, and if everyone has been staying strong.

As for me, I've been doing alright. I slipped up at the beginning of the month, but I haven't had any since. So what about the rest?
 
I was smoking three cigarettes a day when I was like thirteen. I have long outgrown those days. I hover somewhere between 15-20 cigarettes a day. I don't really want to / plan to quit.
