Stopping smoking. - callumcull - 04-10-2013

RE: Stopping smoking. - Midnightclub - 04-10-2013
Yeah that's one of the bad points.. Gone cold turkey or..?
RE: Stopping smoking. - callumcull - 04-10-2013
Yeah, just stopped one day, tried cutting down but never works. This is horrible haha

MTFU, it's all psychological.
RE: Stopping smoking. - adamm306 - 04-10-2013

RE: Stopping smoking. - Midnightclub - 04-10-2013
If you haven't already get on the e-cigs callum, I've not touched a fag since april and not touched any nicotine at all since a bout 2 months ago now.. Only thing I've ever found to work
RE: Stopping smoking. - callumcull - 04-10-2013
I've tried the ecigs, ended up using them at work and smoking whenever I was outside, didn't work for me. I know it's all in the mind, and yes, I need to man up and stop being a pussy...
Also, I should add I've not had anything since Sunday.
RE: Stopping smoking. - Midnightclub - 04-10-2013
Were they nice flavoured ones? I kept with the gacky tasting 'original' flavour.. so i got the nicotine hit but didn't enjoy the taste
RE: Stopping smoking. - WiNgNuTz - 04-10-2013
I'm right there with you mate, i started "Stoptober" on the 1st, and so far so good. Had a real urge to go out for a fag after a slight barney with the missus the other day, but that would have involved going to the shop to buy some baccy and rizla. Considering im also skint at the moment, that was always destined to fail.
Can't say i get the hunger thing though, but my appetite has been almost non-existent for a week or so now, not sure why. Keep it up though mate, you'll get through it.
EDIT: also going cold turkey. Why bother trying to replace the fags with something "less harmful" if you can just do away with it all together?

If you really want to quit, you'll just quit. If you're making a half-arsed attempt at it then you'll go back to smoking eventually

Running?! Screw that noise! I bitch and moan about having to walk from the front door to the car!
Tbh, i just went out for a little blast in the DT, took my mind off it.
RE: Stopping smoking. - callumcull - 04-10-2013
I have to get on the running and upper body stuff, I'm going in the navy as an ME soon so fitness is key
RE: Stopping smoking. - WiNgNuTz - 04-10-2013
Fair enough, each to their own.
RE: Stopping smoking. - Dum-Dum - 04-10-2013
10 years since I gave up (still have the odd fag very very occasionally).
I was fortunate enough not to be really working when I gave up so had a pint every time I wanted a fag and eventually was physically unable to comprehend smoking. Only took about 2 weeks and I didn't want to smoke anymore.
RE: Stopping smoking. - THE_Liam - 04-10-2013
Tried 7 or 8 times now, think I have an addictive personality, always end up smoking again. Like the guy in Sin City said, "A smokers always a smoker when the chips are down"
RE: Stopping smoking. - karl1989 - 04-10-2013
I've got a ELite. Been on it for a month or abit over now and not smoked since. Do crave it when I'm having a bru after fixed the car but just forget about it
RE: Stopping smoking. - Jake - 04-10-2013

Exactly this. Your body does not need it regardless of wether you have been smoking 1 or 10 years. It's just your mind telling you it does.
RE: Stopping smoking. - Pete - 05-10-2013
I quit 8 years ago, Used to do about 60-70g of Baccy a week. Used a combination of replacement Niccy patches and pig-headed "I'm not getting beat" will power. Best thing I ever did, Not touched one since barring the occasional exotic roll-up
RE: Stopping smoking. - THE_Liam - 26-10-2013
Thought I'd update an old thread with my experience. I got one of the liquid pen type E-cigs online, haven't touched tobacco in 9 days since I got it! Best bit is, I got the Virginia liquid and it even tastes a fair bit like proper Golden Virginia! Longest I've gone without smoking since I was 14, really think I'm gonna quit this time
