sup guys, right now im trying to quit smoking tobacco but plain and simple its a bitch. ive been smoking cigs since i was 12 , im 19 now and since then ive never gone without atleast one cig a day since i started. for the last couple years ive been smoking it out of a glass pipe and lately an average of 25-30 bowls a day. IM has been good to me so ive had the time. as of today i havent smoked a single bowl of tobacco or a cig for 5 days and its like a living hell. im craving for the shit now like a mother fucker right now. for the last 7 years 1st thing i would do in the morning is pick up a cig or my glass pipe and light that shit up and its a really hard habit to get out of. its been pretty damn hard not to go to the gas station and not fork over some cashflow for a pack also. so if you guys have any tips on staying cig free, feel free to share them. also it would be great to hear past experiences of some people going through the same shit as i am right now. aight then!! peace!!!
 
Are you smoking baccy out of a glass bowl? Or bud/grass/weed/cannabis? I smoke myself and I know how hard it is to give up, I was reading somewhere, write down what you do each day and make a point of when you smoke and include
- Where you are?
- What time it is?
- What else are you doing?

For example, if you smoke a ciggerate when you wake up, drink a cup of coffe instead.
if you smoke a ciggerate when waiting for something to download, go for a quick walk. My advice is don't stop, cut down over-time, then stop completly, this helps so much with the cravings. :)

Good luck buddy, it takes a lot of will power to quit :)
 
wooohoo good thing that i don't drink and i don't smoke as well... woohooo :)...

best of luck dude...and remember... it's now or never...... :)
 
ahh man.. i gotta quit smoking pot and cigarettes at the same time nd ive been smoking pot since 13 and ciggs since 16 and i'm 21 now.. it's gonna be one cranky week thats for sure i think i'll make it though..

anyways, good luck and don't give in! it's 100% mental brother despite what some might say, i've gotten rid of my cravings completely with some meditation (google it, it's stupid easy to do and really works) and forcing myself to believe the next one will kill me and telling myself over and over i will NOT smoke another one, and do not care. worked for me, until i got bored :P

gonna give it another shot though to see if im crazy or not
 
i got a nice offer for a e-cigarette if you want lol

lmfao no thx bro im trying to give up nicotine all together. thx for the offer though i guess :p

actually i smoke both out of a glass bowl weed and baccy. but i have a pipe for each so i use a pipe for tobacco and another for da bud:D. yea i usually torch it up when im downloading something cause its just such an aggrevating experience. helps keep me calm during the process :p .

Yo man.. I did it... cold turkey, when I recently moved to a new town.

The hardest thing for me really is going to the bars. I remember just the

other day I was at the bar and this chick I was talking to out on the patio..

I mean out there it was SOOOO easy to start a social conversation with someone

whos smoking while I'm drinking and shes smoking a cig... I kind of just stared at it

instead of in her eyes... the next morning I could smell it on my dirty clothes from

the night before... ugh...


Anyways... as far as quitting goes... IDK... something inside of me just made me want

to quit. I kept busy, ate snacks, developed one HELL of a caffeine/ginseng/taurine

addiction to replace it for awhile - but being wired all the time gave me plenty of time

to work on my infrastructure.


Sunflower seeds, though! I have some friends who use that to replace the oral fixation

as they're trying to quit... which helps quite a bit I hear. GOOD LUCK BRO, STAY STRONG!

yea same here bro im doing it cold turkey, fuck that gum and other shit thats on the market. if i cant quit straight up then hell im not going to at all. word to the coffee, i drink on average 2 pots aday of that shit, thats nothing new but helps take my mind off cigs for some reason :rolleyes: . heh seems like cigs go so well with conversations with chicks for some reason lol. yea and its also going to be hard not to smoke when im drinking, it just enhances the buzz so well!!! lol.

damn man that has to suck pretty bad. ive smoked weed since i was about 11 "good times". yea since day 3 i really havent been the nicest guy you could be around thats for sure. not quiting because of health reasons or because i have to, but i just generally feel like hell every morning i wake up because of the amount i smoke. also its been clouding my mind lately so ive been less productive,makes me tired to. few days ago i was on google looking at some shit about cigs and looked at all the chemicals and shit and some stories of cancer patients, shit got to me. guess ill just keep spend my time with maryjane more often now :D .
 
I quit smoking too . I smoked 2 packs a day for the last 15 years or so and one day in may I just stopped...... was tired of it. You can do it if I could.
 
Some of my best ideas come when having a cigi break. I aint quitting 'till I'm 30. Take it easy

And good luck man!
 
just do what i did ---

wear the nic patch and chew the nic gum *at the same time*

you will be so high from synthetic nic you won't need cigs... really, this is what i did to quit my 2-pack per day 10+ yr habit.

you also have to mentally accept the fact that no matter how many cigs you smoke in your lifetime it will never be enough for you. i was to the point where i was lighting new cigs and i already had cigs in the ashtray still buring. i was a complete monkey...

if you do the patch/gum get ready for some really intense dreams. its actually kinda fun...
 
One word: Chantix.

It has worked like a charm for everyone that I've ever known that has used it. There are currently clinical trials running that show that it may even be effective as a treatment for cocaine and heroin addiction.
 
Smoke every other day, then every two days, then every three days, ect. Once you hit 7 days you should be good.

Here is a video you might enjoy. Puts smoking in a new perspective.

This is a little grotesque but an effective mind game for you.

Take an entire pack of cigs (or half pack or whatever) and toss them one by one into a toilet. Probably a public facility unless you want to clean the mess up afterward. Then, with all the tobacco floating around, shit all over it. Piss all over it. Make it absolutely disgusting.

Then, every time you light up, remember those cigarettes swirling around in urine and feces, and I'll bet you that cig in your mouth seems far less appetizing.

It's a little gross I know, but make yourself hate them!

yeah, just remember you will probably kill yourself as CHANTIX is linked to people committing suicide


Try Electronic Cigarettes.
 
"Giving up smoking is easy...I've done it hundreds of times."

Seriously try reading the Allen Carr book worked for me.
 
Just walk away from them. Keep your mouth fresh with mints and gum. Start exercising so you can realize how bad cigarettes screw up your lungs. I've quit smoking several times and have been smoke free for many years now. It's easy, you just have to do it. Stay away from foods that you really enjoy a cigarette after and you might consider laying off booze for a while.

Quitting cigarettes is easy. I learned that when I quit taking opiates years ago. That put it in perspective.
 
Its easer then you think I smoked for over 15 years and quit cold turkey because I was sick of smelling like an ash tray !
