THE OFFICIAL QUIT SMOKING THREAD

[Bizzare]

this is a short story from a friend of mine, on how he stopped smoking
some years ago he was a heavy smoker ,but there was a time in his life when his woman left him and the tabanca was strong ... so he smoked and smoked and smoked till one morning at about 2 o clock he ran out of cigarettes and headed out to get more ..

now where he was living in santa cruz and at that hour, yuh not getting no shop open. he decided to take a taxi to san juan to get his fix but taxis hardly passes at that hour,
so he waited and waited and as time passes, nothing..

all of a sudden he saw afar off, what looks like the lights of a car lower down the road and started running to catch up with it in desperation ,after covering a great distance and still failing to catch the taxi, he sat there waiting on another taxi until daylight, at that point he realized what cigarets had him doing and never stuck another one in his mouth after that...

No Angel, Jesus, Holy Spirit?
Would have been a cool story

Nice work man I kicked the habit the the same day my wife went in the hospital to make my daughter, I was a smoker for about 15yrs myself I was not well at the time also which made it easier, whenevr I get the urge I just think it will make me die faster and I will have less time with my daughter that is enough encouragement for me

Smoking about 15 years and nothing ever really phased me to stop until I saw the OP's first vid. I didn't think about death, but about my 6 month old son. About how I wouldn't enjoy his childhood with him cus daddy's cardio is $hit.

I saw the vid on Friday night while working the night shift. I said to myself "as dis pack done I done" but as morning approached I realized that the cigs were still controlling me. I took it out of my pocket and gave it away. Kept my zippo though.

Since then I have been smoke free. I intend to keep it so for the rest of my life. Inshallah.

keep it up.....drink lots of water to purge system

@Vega, rfari & Stephon et al. I hope you guys stay the course and kick your smoking habit. Its been a little more than two and a half years since I last took a smoke, that was around the time that my baby girl was born. I didn't stop because I knew that second hand smoke would be harmful to her or that my wife was a fcuking pain in de ass to quit. Rather, I stopped because I couldn't handle the coughing up of all colours of sheit on a morning after and during the brushing of my teeth. That was the straw that broke my camel's back. I'm happy for kicking the habit and as one tuner said, I did it because I wanted to and not for any other reason.
End of discussion!

Day 5.....and feeling great! Urges getting less controlling and easier to ignore. Water really helps to flush out the nicotine.

I'm actually liming around smoking friends and not being as tempted to smoke. One thing I have discovered is that smoking takes up quite a bit of my day. I find myself doing more at work...lol...the company finally getting a full day's work.

[BrotherHood]

^^^good going...keep it up meng

True, so there's still time to stop, wasn't joking about the phelgm and its various hues..
when I made the decision to stop I was pleasantly surprised by the gradually reduction in coughing spells and the ability to identify various odours in the air once again.
Now my nose is so keen I could pick up the slightest smell of cigs even if it is some distance away.
Knock on wood, hope to never start back again!

I believe the temptation to smoke when drinking with the boys increase exponentially...that is the as the need to drink increase so does the urge to light up.
I try to stay away from friends who like to smoke while drinking...I can handle to alco but I'm not tempting fate with the nicotine.
