Quitting Smoking

Does anybody else want to quit smoking cigarettes but secretly love it?
Grr...I really want to quit but a cig is just so damn satisfying.
I think once I get pregnant again I'll quit for good, but grrrrr.

 

Never a better reason to get pregnant, in my opinion.

Edit:
But in all seriousness, I totally know what you mean. I would love to quit smoking, but then again, I don't want to quit smoking, either. If I were to quit, I would need a substitute. . . and there just isn't a substitute for it.

 

I know right! Maybe if I had a big ass bag of weed to get me through it, but then I would be constantly stoned off my ass! lol
There's just so many things I hate about smoking tho...the smell, the filth, the hazard to everyones health...but damnit anyway! (sorry, I'm in a cussing mood today)

Oh, and we're trying to get pregnant, it's just not happening yet...prolly cuz we smoke.

 

I hate how smoking makes me look cool.

 

Nothing to do with quitting smoking, but just wanted to say how cute the two of you are in this and other threads.

 

Awww! You're such a sweetie Keenman!

And miracle, you crack me up!

 

You just like me because I love kittens.

 

The name is Lea, babe. Use it.

 

Oh, sorry Lea

 

'tis all good, my love. 'tis all good. Goo goo g'joob.

 

I hope you can escape the addiction to cigerettes. Such a hard habit to break. You really gotta want to quit.
A little TMI perhaps, but recently I have lost so many friends my age from their addiction to cigs, latest one was an old buddy I grew up with, the lung cancer got so bad, it ate thru his lungs, and eventually ate thru his back! Horrible to look at, he showed me btw, and such pain.....
Please quit now.....

 

i have something you can put in your mouth...

 

Quitting is hard. Zyban worked wonders for me when I quit a couple years ago.

 

I still hate those cool kids! Wouldn't let me hang out with them behind the school in the 6th grade. They told me I could if I stole my dads cigarettes for them.

 

it's defiantly hard quitting but it's worth it.

 

I have the same problem, i feel like i have to quit smoking but at the same time i love smoking cigs - esp with a alcohol or after a meal. I'll probably quit eventually but for now i'll just slow it down.

 

Lots of people say this, but it never gets easier (only harder).

 

I started smoking some gross cheap shit to help taper off of them. Problem is, now I like those too. It's the fucking menthol.

 

I found it to be a really difficult thing to quit. It took many attempts and was frustrating and I really felt like such a loser each time I did not make it. I was very disappointed in myself.

I think I only managed to stop as I really made up my mind to do it and was committed to it. I craved a smoke for a long time after I stopped when being social. The three month mark of quitting was probably harder for me than the beginning. At three months people just assume you are over it and it feels like a battle is not over.

There are still times I really crave a cigarette after all these years.

I wish anyone who is trying to quit the very best and encourage them to keep trying until it works for them.

 

Thanks for all the input guys! It's good to know I'm not the only one going through it. The fact that my husband smokes makes it that much harder. I really want to quit, but idk. Like I said, I think the only way I can do it is if I'm forced to, i.e.--getting pregnant. Ahhhhhhhhhhh. I will eventually.
