Quitting smoking fucking sucks.

[lanky noob]

Only quitting to save money so I can afford to move away for uni, going cold turkey. One day in and i've got massive headaches, can't stop eating and feel ill.

Anybody else had this/stuff like this when quitting?

Once you get to uni you'll start up again immediately anyway.

more than likely, but for the meantime I need to save money

Get some nicotine patches and avoid going to bars/parties for about 6 weeks. It's what I did and I found it was pretty painless.

Don't do it, If you don't want to... you won't.

Find a substitute? (flavored chew sticks seem to be a popular one around me, or if you need to smoke something, make it green and sticky!)

Thing is I do, because I want to save money, as much as I enjoy smoking, the fact is i'm not prepared to let a massive opportunity slip me by because i'd rather inhale the fumes of a dead plant, to put it bluntly

The purpose is to save money, not spend even more

I never got headaches or anything like that, but I never actually made a serious attempt at quitting either.

Every New Year, for the past God-knows-how-many-years, I've "tried" to quit. But not really.

Thinking about going E-Cig. Been waking up the past few months wheezing, coughing, and recently pains in my chest. It's scary and you'd think that'd be enough to make me quit right away, but it isn't.

Quitting cigarettes is supposedly harder than quitting heroin. And I have a brother who was hooked on heroin and I've seen how crazy that shit can be.

Don't just do it to save $; think about your health as well. I probably spend $100 on ciggs and beer alone each week. And after doing it for so long, it's a fucking TOUGH habit to break.

Good luck, man.

I've heard a lot of good things about a book called Alan Cars Easy way to stop smoking. .

[ame]http://www.amazon.co.uk/Allen-Carrs-Easy-Stop-Smoking/dp/0718194551[/ame]

Unfortunately I've never bothered buying it as I've been thinking of it as a last resort but I'm at the last resort stage now haha.

Apparently the titles a bit tongue in cheek but its got loads of good reviews.

Good luck from me too!

That allen car dude's got some stuff on youtube that all makes sense, and watching this has sort of kicked my ass in to gear, there's no reason it shouldn't be easy

and cheers guys!


Definitely worth the 50 minute watch

 

[Kellii]

Yeah he seems to know his shit! I think I'm gonna buy this book sometime this week hopefully.

Thanks for posting the video man.

Reading how hard it is to qiut makes me so proud of my mother who quit successfully after smoking for about 40 years.

I was going to suggest the same thing as Marcus before I looked at your location. I then looked at my location and thanked god that I can get a good oz for $140.

 

[MarcusGHedwig]

HOLY bejeezus, that's straight up 1/2 the going rate in these parts

My mom made me quit.

I've been smoking since 15 or so, I'm 23 now. Not as bad as some people, but quitting early is your best bet, don't know how long, or how many per day, but if you try hard enough, as in life, almost anything is impossible.

I switched my habits to pure nicotine, using a rechargeable refillable electronic cigarette, and I mix my own delicious vaporous flavors, learned just by watching youtube and got better results than buying liquids from companies.

Good luck to you.

About the same as it goes for around here, 120-140 depending on the guy. Good shit too. I've always heard that up in the NE area it's more expensive.

 

[lanky noob]

Seems to be going for about £160 an ounce here, so about $250 bahaha, not to mention that everyone round here is a scheming prick, more times than I care to remember i've had weird shit laced in with my weed that's done nothing but fuck me up, and not in a good way Never mind that it costs £10 here to get about a 1.2 gram bag, and even then it's stalky as shit and more than likely covered in other crap

Last time I gave up, I replaced ciggarettes with tea. Worked pretty well.

I still have the odd one now and again in a social situation, but compared to how I used to be I'm fine with that.
