So. I am in the process of quitting smoking. Someone smoked my last one that I was going to savor today. You cannot imagine what this has done to me. I am trapped between the lust and desire of getting a new pack (but then I have 19 others to smoke and have thereby not quitted), borrowing a menthol (YUCKKKKK), or doing this and craving my asssssss offffffff. This is something that I need help with. I quit pot no problem, but this is like... torture. It's not even something I fully comprehend, why I want it so bad.
Part of me wants to quit, and the other part is like.. nagggginnng me to just have one (but we all know where that leads). I don't want to stop and get fat and stupid and irritable :( But also do not want to get lung cancer. But is also a part of my personality, lifestyle and entertainment. There's actually no justification for it at all, and any argument I try to make supporting smoking just sounds stupid.
Folks, if you are ever presented with the opportunity to get addicted to cigarettes, just say no. There's no point, all it does is fuck up your chemicals and make you look cool and dangerous.
Tell me I'm not a bad horsie for wanting it but I shouldn't do it anyways D: Or that I'm a bad horsie for doing it in the first place. Also, your thoughts on smoking? And the banning of smoking in nearly all indoor places. Go.

I quit once when I was 20 and made it till I was 24.....like almost 4 years and stupidly,very stupidly I started back up again.
Smoking definitely is one of the biggest regrets of my life,maybe even the biggest.
No matter how hard i try to quit now,it seems impossible,and I wish very much so that the time i put them down I never picked them back up.
I went to quit again yesterday,and somehow with a very similar excuse that yur mentioning here found myself buying a new pack this morning giving in yet again.
But not only was it one pack,but two because it was buy one get one free and I couldn't pass it up.
I say,smoking is disgusting,and an awful thing to do to yourself for more reasons than just lung cancer.
Im only 30,but in pretty bad shape for many other smoking related reasons.
Do what ever you can to stop it.
Ahhh! Maybe you should rip them up! (I know the whole "wasting tobacco" feeling). Maybe patches and gum would work for you? But I think it's easy to get addicted to not only the nicotine but also putting it to your mouth and seeing the smoke come out, doubly hard when it's so easy to get them!
I will keep trying! Give it another shot Pokey!
as for gum and patches ive tried everything.
My issue is indeed personal,and mental.
Maybe one day
Scare yourself, ya know?
