who here...

is really pissed of when they try to stop smoking (cigs) only to keep getting hooked again like a week later...

 

Me.

 

Even when I was 15 it pissed me off when other 15 yr olds started smoking. Seriously?? Fucking quit. I never understand the reasoning.

 

have you ever got addicted to cigs? ( i am asking, not accusing you)

it's very hard to stop once you're hooked.

 

sucks right?

 

Hmmm.... I wonder what it's like to have a crazving for a cigarette.

.....If it's anything like craving a reeses peanut butter cup it can't be fun at all!....

 

People who dont smoke cigarettes really dont understand smokers and why we do it. i hate when they say there is no reason for smoking cigs. its one of my favorite drugs and will be till i die of lung cancer :]

 

i agree with this, this is also my fave drug but also my most hated drug at the same time. it gives me pleasure and agony ....kind of like having a girlfreind lol.

 

Have fun.

 

It's the starting that I question.

 

yes i was young and foolish, had by 1st cig at the age of 9 although i di dnot get hooked until i was 14, i was just smoking 'to be cool' i hanged out with a bunch of pot smokers when i was 14 and they smoked lots of ciggerets as well as weed and ofcourse i wanted to be cool so i also started smoking large amounts of ciggeret and weed, thus my addiction grew.

i regret starting, but unless you're addicted to ciggerets then you have no idea what it is like being addicted to ciggerets, you're entitled to your opinion but go easy on the smokers hehe

 

Fair enough.

 

Cigarettes are, by far, the strongest love/hate relationship ive been in. At the same time though, i love hating it. Hah.

 

I was till I heard something new to me.
We all know what the withdrawl of cigs is like.
We all know we are not going to drop dead if we don't have a cig.
We all know it is a horrible habit that will probably fuck our lives up one day.
Knowing this and then having the usual battles (albeit in your head) while still smoking should stop you having those battles when giving up.
basically smash all your demons before you quit...project yourself into the future where all your demons have vanished...because they surely will be gone in a year.

 

Ill have a ball :]
Cause when im coming down off a 450mic hit of LSD a Cigarette is like an orgasm, for your mouth.....oralgasm, ha. :]

 

that is good advice, but the main reason i struggle wit giving up smoking is because of my life...very stressfull and requires me to be paying attention, now when ever i stop smoking i get stressed, distracted very easily and because of the situation i am in with my life i can't afford to be slippin' (lol am a gangsta now)...

demons are nasty.

 

same here hehe

 

The cigarettes didn't keep you from getting stressed or distracted, they were just a pacifier. I've smoked and quit many times. I usually go without smoking for years and then give in when stressed because I want my pacifier back.

If you really want to quit then you just have to stay away from smoking. When you get a craving, do something else. Good luck!

 

The point is deal with all your demons and stuff BEFORE you quit.
Have stress? deal with it.
Get distracted? deal with it.
I'll repeat, deal with it BEFORE you quit.
The basic thing I was told is, none of these issues is new, you WILL find somebody that can help.
None of us know everything...so just ask for some help dealing with things.
Forget about quitting for now.
Think about it when you have your head together more.
And you can imagtine the year in advance with a smile on your face rather than thinking about suicide.

 

yea i am still a young one (18 years old), i haven't got as much will power as older alduts do, thank you for the advice.
