My tip for you guys are to lower the number of smokes a day first. Than if possible go cold turkey. Its all mentally based thoughts and bad habits. I used to light a smoke every time i would sit inside my car. I started to take out any lighters or cigarettes to prevent the possibility of having a smoke. It actually worked for me. I stopped smoking in my car but was still smoking. The next step i took was just to keep my self constantly occupied when i was really craving a smoke. I would read books, play Wii, or work on something in my car and would not take any breaks. Yeah its hard, but eventually after a month or so of not smoking, even if you get suckered back into one smoke. The smoke feels awful, its like a self guilt trip.

Good luck! Also wouldn't you think it would be better to use your money on car parts than cigarettes, cause smoking can really add up. LOL

I had a heart attack at 28... I considered it a wake up call after smoking for 15 years... plus being strapped to a hospital bed for 4 days made it pretty easy...

$#!T man! I am glad you are ok, that is brutal!




Hey, I know this is off topic, but I also wanted to tell you that your Sig is BAD@$$! I love it! Looks like something from a movie.

Holy ****, 2 packs a day? Gaw damn

Yeah that's a grip. For some reason, old ass ladys can smoke that much if not more. I dunno how they do it. For nicotine patches, the lowest is like 10 cigs a day, which is my status. I was told they have some for people who smoke every 30min!!!! WHOA!

Why would you wanna quit drinking? (provided you had no health problems)


That's me...

And those were the ones that I bough, and they just made me dizzy...

wasn't fun drinking when you wake up in order to get to school..

Smoke weed instead? Are you serious?

Not here pal.

Man GTFO - you live in PA and you're worried about second hand smoke? LMFAO

I dont get it... whats up with PA and second hand smoke?

It's always fun; WHILE you're drinking. nobody wants to goto school anyway. And when you grow up and join the working class man, You wont wanna goto work either Man oh man i wish i could stay home all day and play with my daughter and do fun stuff instead of working. I probably wouldn't drink as much

What's wrong with marijuana?

It's an illegal drug, and this is a family site. We do not condone illegal activities.


and there is plenty wrong with marijuana but this is not the place to discuss it.


discussion over.

October 22nd will be my 1 year since I quit smoking. I started smoking when I was 15, almost 16, and quit at 33 just about exactly 18 years after I started. That's a scary prospect, to be in my 30s and have smoked for half my life. I always associated people smoking half their lives to people who were older, like in their 50s at least.

Whatever method you use to quit smoking, the bottom line is really simple. You have to want it. Genuinely want it. If you do, you'll find a way that works for you and you'll quit. It's that simple. It sucks, and it's really hard. I was a complete basket case when I quit - and damn near homicidal for a good 3 weeks after quitting, and that was WITH the patch (which I actually recommend). I either cried all the time or really genuinely wanted to harm people. I had ridiculously ****ed up dreams from being on the patch, and yeah, I gained weight. You quit any stimulant and you're gonna gain weight.

A year later I'm still just as determined to not pick it up again as a habit. I can honestly say that while I have smoked maybe 10 or so cigarettes in the last year, I haven't felt the actual "urge" to smoke except for once, when one of my dogs died. I have no desire whatsoever to smoke on any kind of regular basis. And I'm really really proud of myself for finally quitting.

Griff, you should totally be a motivational speaker...

nah, right now I'm working on becoming a transmission repair girl

LOL I agree though on the motivational speaker part.

Yeah, that is the biggest part I am worried about. "Gaining" the weight. I have gone up in weight, but I kinda like it on me now. Just don't want to gain anymore. Especially not in the stomach!! No way, not an ounce more or anything.

I need to do this though. Maybe I guess I should not just work out but run more.

I thought the eaxct same thing from an earlier comment. Kudos to your very diverse array of genius - that's why I keep you around [Now start working on my chops for the Calander ]


What? Right now you're working on becoming a tranny, repair girl? This I got to see.
D-Man's been a Tranny all his life [But only on Saturdays and no he looks nothing like a female even with makeup]

D-man, I can fix you.

though ive quit a long time ago, once in a blue moon i like getting 1 grit from my friend and just lighting it up and smoke that grit peacefully by looking at some really nice scenery and i get "high"
-can anyone relate to this? it always makes me feel like how i was in the past living in japan

Its a cotine buzz that you get on your first few cigs or lips. Makes your head spin for about 15 mins pleasantly then you just get extremely euphoric. The main reason is started smoking.
