I quit smoking

[UmoGus]

Vaping helps, I know a heap of people who just vape and not touch a smoke anymore.

I tried vaping last time but it just made me want a smoke even more

 

[UmoGus]

Well done mate. I smoked for almost 30 years (Wini Reds) and tried giving them up withouut success 4 or 5 times for different lengths but ended back on them. I was giving them up for the wife and kids, for my doctor, because of the expense, the adds on TV etc etc. Then a mates dad gave me the best advice ever.

He told me you only give them up when you want to. Once you go from looking at a packet of ciggys thinking you a not allowed to have one, to realizing I can have one anytime I want BUT i dont want to, then its much easier. I still love the smell of a freshly lit ciggy almost 15 years later but I dont have any desire to have one.

Iv heard the same from alot of ex smokers. This is the first time I'm doing it for me

 

[UmoGus]

Way to go man!

Its been 2 months for me now.

Tbh, iGet Vape has helped me dramatically with the craves, I have no desire to smoke now, the thought and smell of it actually turns me off.

I can definitely feel a differnce

I was actually gonna reply to your thread from 2016 but its locked. Hopefully it lasts this time bro

Fantastic. What other useless info about your life can you share? Why don’t you take a picture of your lunch and Tell us about that. I am just going upstairs to rub one out in anticipation of what’s to come.

Your mum calls me daddy

Today marks 2 weeks off the darts cold turkey and maybe my hundredth attempt at quitting. I was a pack a day smoker for the past 10 years and finally had enough.

Surprisingly I haven't really had any cravings, but I think that might be due to me getting back in the gym and keeping my mind occupied.

I know it's only early days but this time feels different.

Good effort mate, not a smoker but see how much people struggle Quiting
Keep at it

Just stay away from the winfield pink 8’s

Well done! For me the first few weeks were the hardest and then it just got easier as the months went by! Now it has been 7 years! I was smoking 15 to 20 cigarettes per day and use to get up most mornings with a sore throat and a heavy cough! I took up swimming and I have never felt so good! Even for an old buggar like me! Lol Keep up your good work! You have got this!

Yeah the cough was ridiculous. One of the worst things about smoking

C'mon bro - you haven't specified what you've quit smoking. Ciggies, mary jane, crack or dare I say, man-meat. Makes a difference.

Never started on crack or man-meat so no idea how much will power is required for that. Mary jane - well reckon I've become a better person after I gave away brekkie cones. Not sure if thats really giving up though....

Regardless - don't let the downers get you down. Good luck....

Shouldve specified, i meant ice.

 

[Lil Ms Fabulous]

Well done buddy.

I quit the ciggies 12 years ago and I still don’t miss it. I even tried to give up numerous times cold turkey but I was told about Champix tablets and that’s where I found success and no side effects either.

TBQH, I don’t know how people on Centrelink payments can afford the prices now.

Now we talking. Good on you. No more scabs or spiders crawling all over you but no more roots where all u need is to be the guy with the pulse.

Positives and negatives.

Have to admit though - like crack. Had a crackhead bail me up once when I was hitting golf balls and walking the dogs down the park. Knew the idiot so told him to back off or I'll crack him with the 7 iron. Idiot had a swing, so I cracked him full on in the head. Out in a flash with blood pissing out of his head. Kept walking the dogs and hitting golf balls (as you do).

Ran into him the next day. 12 stitches in his head. Asked him wtf happened to you. Told me he had no idea but some cnt king hit him. Said if u find out, let me know and I'll clean him up. All good.

Crack - the stuff where you can nearly kill someone and be mates the next day. Good stuff....
