Who's Quit Smoking?

[sherwood71]

I quit smoking almost 5 years ago after smoking for 30 years. Used a vape to help with the cravings and urges, started at 12mg of nicotine and went to 0mg. Used 0mg for close to a year then decided to get off of it too. No cravings or sneaking puffs here and there, wife figured I would be smoking at work. Very hard and disgusting habit to break. 

Gramps you need to look out for you and your wife. Understand it is your kids and family but if you aren't going to look out for number one no one else is. Sounds to me like you have family taking advantage of you. Stop making excuses for everything in your life.

I need to quit smoking! Between me and my wife, its every bit of $500 a month on cigs. I have gone 3-4 days without, and then always seem to cave and smoke again...

I am in my car daily making deliveries and I almost always have my windows down. I can smell where someone was just smoking all the time or a car can pass me while we are driving and it wafts into my Jeep and I get to smell that, it stinks now. People at work just randomly take smoke breaks and I get to smell that when I get back from my deliveries or they come back in and talk to me and the smell is hovering around them. I will say this, you can tell which ones smoke in their own homes still. It is a different kind of odor.

I like that other smell when people are driving or coming inside from partaking. Smells  better then tobacco.

This. I can smell it from a mile away. Bumper to bumper traffic is a daily thing here and folks seem to have no problem burnin' it down right in the middle of the interstate. It'll hit my nose and I'll start looking around like a coon dog.

Ive quit for about 3 years then picked the habit back up at an Aerosmith concert in 94 while I was in PR.I tried the Vaping and didnt work for me that well.I have never smoked in my home..always outside in back yard or kicked back in a chair in front drive. I dont even like to smoke in any of my vehicles. Ive recently been giving it another try..Im down to 4- 10 cigarettes a day from 1- 1 1/2 packs a day. There are times Ill not smoke for an entire week, then its a pack in a day.i guess to be honest.. I can say that I actually enjoy it.. Its my relaxation time to be honest.then at times I cant stand the taste, smell, and or effects?? Its deff a challenge at times.Ill get there by next year im sure. Im to the point Im just about done with it though. Congrats to those who have quit

Can I say something? Don't set any time frames... it sounds weird I know but if you set time frames and for whatever reason don't make your time frame it can cause psychological issues. Smoke until you are done. When you are done you can tell yourself... I am not smoking anymore, and be done then. Smoking is a choice, nobody can "make" you smoke so if you are done, be done. There are plenty of other habits out there.... just substitute for a less deadly one

Man the past couple of days I have had some weird and vivid dreams. Last night I was walking down a neighborhood road with small businesses on one side with Rob Riggle for some reason. We saw police lights off in the distance and he told me to hide! He ran around the corner and they got him and arrested him!!! I dipped into a music store where there was a group of children playing with old fashioned roller skates. They heard the police sirens and ran out the back door.



 



The shop owner told me that the police have tripled their raids on walkers and loiterers. He then said they raised the sentences to 10 years for walking. I said, when did the world start doing this? He said "The world"? He said "kid, we are the only country that does it, that's why nobody comes here anymore". He said you better go before the cops come back.



 



I left the store and began walking. I was scanning the distance for blue lights when I heard a sound behind me... it was the cops!!! They were about half a mile back and they let loose dogs to chase me down. I ran but the blue lights on the backs of the dogs were flashing faster as they got closer. I made it to a door just in time and found myself in a room full of people huddling on the floor. I said what are you doing here? They all said "For the Horde!!" I remember saying "Damn WoW nerds" in my dream then I woke up.
 
Now that I don't smoke... these kinds of dreams happen a lot.
