[chamelia]

I think I am taking up smoking. I can't be sure - but the signs are all there. I smoke everytime the opportunity arises and now am trying to steal my dads cigarettes when he goes to bed.

hahaha.


that is how it began for me around a year ago.

i say STOP NOW

 

[chamelia]

It's really actually fucking hard. They 'aint kidding when they say it's addictive. I don't even enjoy it. Like I get nothing from it - hate the taste, hate the smoke...I just like holding it and yeh..Such a fucking weird habit.


I want to do it so bad but cannot for the life of me think why.

haha this is so true

it's just something to do.. it keeps you occupied and in a way is relaxing.

i love smoking around this time normally because it's cool out, and you can just sit there and gaze at the sky and have "me time" .. doing nothing and sitting there is heaps gay

but yeh i too hate the taste and the smell - fuck i'd die if i reeekeed of cigs - but it's habit more than anything.

for most people when quitting early on (i.e. not long after they started smoking), it's the habit that's much harder to break then an addiction to the nicotine itself. i personally don't crave the nicotine.

i don't even know why i smoke and i feel like a retard for doing so, but i can't see myself stopping completely.

Well that idea didn't go as well as expected. I finished me ciggiez, didn't have any 4 about 15 minutes, started reading a mag theerz some fat fkn mole with her garbage opinion article talking about cigarat addiction.

I'll quit tom

Word for word...thats what is happening with me.

My lungs aren't completely screwed up yet so I dont inhale fully but its the craving to have a ciggie in your hand that drives it.

 

[chamelia]

Dirty little loveable bastards. I think I am seeing a pattern in my behavior. Everything is clear. I am attracted to things which are very bad for me.

I see the light!

 

[The_highwayman]

maybe you guys should get some sort of stress ball, or a jar of lollipops.
something to keep your fingers or mouth occupied.

or get some gobstoppers.

 

[Kwayera]

Or get a wooden cigarette, like Jerry from Boston Legal

 

[Bacilli]

Toothpikz help, I have one between my teeth ATM. Have had only 2 Cigz 2day. Tomoz I'll b free...
I called the quit line too btw, they're very helpful... Ringing them is a good idea if plann to quit

 

[Cisco-Kid]

I think Im addicted to cigarettes!

Im not sure how...my lungs havent been fucked up enough by them yet...when i smoked before I didnt inhale completely.

Im doomed arent I? Especially realtionship wise...

hey, i used to smoke quite a bit. its actually very easy to quit. like many people say, make it over the "3 day hump" and you wont crave anymore ciggs. its not actually an "addiction" where your body needs it. its more along the lines of psychological addiction where your body craves it but doesnt need it. just like marijuana. if you have determination and strong will-power, you should succeed. if not, well, your a weak minded fool arent you?

 

[gcspsp]

Are you retarded? did you even read any of the previous posts? I was off them for a few WEEKS before starting this thread. So much for your 'advice'.

Actually it's both, you (insert mild insult here). Nicotine is a powerfully addictive drug, and there are forceful physiological and psychological addictions involved.

update: going crazy! tried the tooth pick tip...makes me want to smoke even more.

gawd need a beer too.

 

[The_highwayman]

the toothpick isnt making you want to smoke more.
time without cigarettes is doing that.
keep going.
report back soon
