    Oh man quitting sucks


    Good good does quitting suck.

    But honestly the best way I found to quit is you can't tell yourself you're never going to have a cigarette again, you need to leave the possibility open to bum one from someone when you're drunk and such.

    You cannot however ever go and buy a pack, that'll ruin the whole cycle.

    I got lucky though, ever cigarette smoker you can look at the addiction and see where on the scale between physically addicted to nicotine and mentally addicted to smoking they are, and I was defenitly on farther on the mental side. I never really got any physical effects every time I quit except bitchiness. But good god I did not know what to do with myself without being able to smoke.

    I think Dale said it best on King of the Hill, "I never knew what to do with my hands, so i started smoking"

    Same here.

    BUT, tonight is the real test.

    I'm hungover, I'm hanging out with a girl who smokes, and I'm getting laid.

    If I don't smoke tonight, then I'm the man. :biggrin:

    Wellbutrin XL is supposed to help people quit, if you want to try that.
    I've read many success stories regarding it.

    Keep at it, man.

    Seventh day for me.

    I successfully went through a couple situations including alcohol, women, and socializing with smokers (all triggers) without having one myself.

    All of it thanks to meditation.

    Cool man.

    Try not to do another one.

    It's going to be 3 weeks for me (Aug 13) tomorrow.

    I'm expanding my asceticism to alcohol. [​IMG]

    yeah that cig was such a waste because I didn't even enjoy it, I wish I could unsmoke it.

    and I have also not been drinking, mainly because I don't want to relapse :rolleyes:

    did you do it cold turkey?

    This is how I did it.

    It's essentially meditation and it helps with all escapist distractions/addictions:
