I went on zyban tablets and weened off, but then when off the tablets I drank alcohol so I could cope drinking without cigarettes because I smoked like a trooper when I had any acoholic beverage

That's my biggest problem, having some beers and smoking like a chimney

It's 180• not 360 RR, come on Man U smarter then that! Lol but I remember those toothpicks. Shit, mite even order some!
Ha,yeah,yeah.I often go in circles so sorry about that.You won't be sorry BB.They not only taste good,but you will look super cool and they are great at concerts.
I need to quit smoking. Funny thing is when I found out I was pregnant with my daughter I quit smoking no problem, 3 or 4 weeks after she was born I started smoking again..dumbest move ever. I'm addicted more than ever now, I just want to quit.
If you have nothing to lose, you have nothing to worry about.

Smoking is really nasty I agree and think of all the money you will save. Buy something to congrat yourself
over $10 a pack in the city of Chicago.
$3500 or so a year? With nothing to show for it but chronic health issues.
Congrats on quitting. Both my parents would likely still be alive today had they never smoked. And the cost should be an extra incentive these days. When smokes were 2 bucks a pack I could see it being easy to justify the cost, but like you said, $3,500 a year...that's a nice vacation, or save for a few years and its a new car with no payments. And that's a pack a day, imagine the cost for 2 packs a day.
Hardest habit for me to quit. Never could make it thru 2 days without having at least 1 disgusting stick no matter how hard I tried L-) . Finally decided to get hypnotize @-) , & haven't had a cig for almost 10 years \:D/ .
Only drawback is when someone says the word "egg" I act like a chicken ~:>
Hope it works out for you Mike
So, What you Giving ?........ (Thanks Speedy, Alesek, & Arq+friends)
What You Giving
I suggest you step out on your Porch.
Run away my son. See it all. Oh, See the World!
I quite probably nearly eight years ago. I read a book to help quit. "Allen Carr's Easyway to Stop Smoking". I swear by it. I tried several times before that to quit, but once I read that book I was done with it. It wasn't even difficult. People smoked around me, I didn't even care. The book deals with the brainwashing that goes on in your head. Your favourite smokes are the ones that get yah. The thing is, you really have to WANT to quit. The best thing I ever did.

Gonna have to go this route soon but gonna ride it to the deadline because I am one of those strange people who missed smoking for the 11 yrs I quit. Didn't crave it or need it just missed it if that makes any sense. Oh well its been a fun couple of years but it's commin' time...
Anything you lose from being honest You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

Yep You have to WANT to quit.
I have a friend of mine who has told me every week for 20 years that he is going to quit.
More than once I have said...."NEXT WEEK I am quitting"
Once you truly make up your mind, its pretty damned simple.
Take me piece by piece..... Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Good for you Speedy. I quite almost 4 months ago. Cold turkey. Chewed on quite a few sunflower seeds that first few days but like you said get past the 4 days and you don't look back. Don't miss it. Drinking a lot of water and eating foods with a lot of garlic onions and acidic fruit helps to get the by products out of your system.
I'm coo coo for CoCo Puffs...........much better for you than cigarette puffs :-bd
hypnotist? What was that all about? How many visits? Cost?
www.thegreenseminar.com
$65 for 1 session. Over 100 people in a hospital cafeteria, catering to eating disorders & smoking habits. After session, you were given a tape to "listen to" for a month, BRAINWASHING you how smoking is smelly, gross & VERY UNHEALTHY L-) .
By far the best investment I EVER made in my life.
Like you stated before though........... You really have to WANT TO QUIT!
Breathe in healthy my friend =D>

I can't imagine the personal anguish of finding out you have completely self inflicted terminal cancer
Smoke for a period of time and chances are you will die because of it.
And it wont be a pretty death.
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Well, only 11 more months!
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
How much better I feel...
6 weeks and counting...
Thats 840 cigarettes I have NOT smoked!
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
