It has really struck me how many more people smoke over here in Europe than back home in Australia. The last week or two I've been in Paris and northern Italy, and it seems like everyone smokes! Even at a medical conference plenty of the doctors were heading out for smokes between lectures, which I found amazing.
Good luck to any 'quitters' out there! -
Got a wedding come'n, I can't wait to step out with the boys and disrobe a Romeo y Julieta with the help of this little guy..
I quit tailors about three years ago.. This will be my first pure 100% tobacco smoke since then.. -
@LandoCal126
man i feel your pain i just quit smoking cold turkey and it has been 6 days now.i am loosing my damn mind but it seems to be getting a little easier.been a heavy smoker for about 12 years now and boy it sure is hard to quit.
the worst is waking up fighting the urge to have a cigarette with your morning coffee.
the good thing is my nose isn`t constantly clogged and i sleep way better!
have you tried nicotine patches? -
have you tried nicotine patches?
When I was 16. Fell off in the middle of class (High School). Headed straight to the corner store at lunch and bought a pack.
In other news, I am fully back smoking. Shitty. Still determined to quit, just not sure when it will happen.

Oh no Lando, sorry to hear: it happened to me as well about three times until I quitted but then I quitted for real and since then no more nicotine/tabac. you have somehow to be ready to quit, your health and body will show you when it is time. The sooner you quit the better for your body. Mine showed it to me pretty hard, so I was kinda forced to quit. It was a transition period of about half a year until I stopped finally.
But as others stated: it is really worth it, if you want it. take care man -

damn sorry to hear that man!
smoke that pack(if you havent already) and try again. and try those nicotine patches again but this put some extra gorilla tape over it so it doesnt fall off;) -
I've been "stopped" for over three years now, and I've gone from 20 - 40 cigs per day down to 5 cigs per year. I read the Alan Carr book (Easy Way To Stop Smoking) and found it really, really good.
I just want to add, that I had my years allowance of cigs when drunk last Saturday night, but did not feel a single urge to pick one up the day after, I'm a none smoker who still genuinely enjoys smoking, but I can now take it or leave it. It took me quite a while to reach this point.

It's probably been talked about in the previous pages but anyone trying to quit should really consider trying Chantix. It gets a bad rap sometimes as all drugs do, but when dosed right there is nothing on the market which has a higher quit rate.
Just learnt to deal with it.
