I bought Allen Carrs book about giving up a week ago to keep me on the straight and narrow and he's marvelous...I don't think I'll ever smoke again but i'll take my chances on the street and just hope I don't die from that!!
That figure is very very untrue... maybe it meant living in a city is equal to 569 a year?
I know the feeling. My Mum and her bf smoke, my Dad smokes, nearly all my friends in Zurich smoke. You guys have it pretty easy here in terms of the number of smokers - by the end of a night out in Nottingham, my eyes don't sting nearly as badly as they do back home.
But that doesn't mean the cities don't stink.
might as well do it myself seen as ive been exposed this length of time..Nothing to lose now...Im already near enough dead
Nice 1, im dead chuffed for ya
maybe I need to choose a date and quit !!!
Same mate, I tried two weeks ago and lasted until 8.15pm the same day. I dont even like smoking!! But its fucking hard to quit.
Maybe we should have a Site quit smoking forum...ooh...we could even write diaries!! We'd be famous!
Correct.
I'm in Glasgow tomorrow, so I'll probably come back with a disease anyway
Never smoked, it doesn't appeal to me. I can't really anyway because of my little bruv's asthma.
Tell me about it, to quit like you have to be in that right frame of mind, maybe if you try again you may sucseed ?
One day I will, but at this moment in time I know I am not ready to stop.
*chucks rachie a lighter*
ooh chain smokin.... i like it!
If you are going to fuck you lungs, do it properly
*passes the B&H Premium*
However, september comes, uni starts again and bang there we go :chin:. Basically I started again out of- get this- BOREDOM. From buying a 10 deck of B&H every few days I've climbed back up to the usual 10 a day.
Thing that fucks me up is that I can probably quit the fags, but I still fuel my nicotine addiction with other substances (which require tobacco) that just seem too appealling to give up.
At the end of the day you can have patches, gum etc but really all it takes is willpower. Its 10 times harder when the people surrounding you smoke constantly as well.
Either way it's scary stuff.
he said to breath in the same amount of dangerous chemicals as 2 weeks, 10 hours a day of passive smoking you could barbeque sausages for hour an hour.....
a ban on bbq's in public places eh? sounds interesting.
guess big cities are dirrty dirrty places though, being knicknamed the 'big smoke' n all.... :shocking:
Same here. Tried to quit about a month ago and last about a day and a half and started smoking again. So I'm back right were I started.
:yuck: how can u like them!? i went through a stage of them and just erghhh! *shudders*
im a good girl though i dont smoke anymore, unless something really gets me down or im mega stressed.
