It's a bad habit. Hard working two jobs and doing school, cigarettes do a real good job of filling in the time. I can't smoke them sober anymore though, so yay.


Cigarettes are a nice escape from a hard day, thats for sure. I unfortunately do smoke sober.

and when your trying to quit..alcohol is an no-no..shoot get me buzzed and I will fiend for a cig...


Ah, tell me about it. It sucks cause you try and use things like booze and weed to get away from the thought of smoking but it just triggers the need for a cigarette that much more.

    That's true..oh well...I am trying to cut down to 3-4 a day and then maybe go on the gum..but I would have to quit booze and weed for a bit...my friend quit just by the gums and maybe a black n mild every other day...black n milds do work since it has the tobacco feel and no nicotine..So might wanna try that.

    Sometimes it's easier to slowly cutback instead of just stopping cold turkey. But try not to hang out with friends who also smoke; they'll always be tempting you.

    chew some gum, or eat some candy when you feel the need to smoke. You could also watch more TV or read a book to get your mind off it.

    All my friends smoke!

    I don't wanna do the gum, patch or whatnot. I know someone who chews the gum AND smokes now... haha..

    Who was it that said the relationship between smoking and drinking is like going number 1 and number 2. You can take a leak without dropping a deuce, but not the other way around. Just replace number 1 with smoking and number 2 with drinking...

    ... you can't shit without pissing? I don't get your analogy. But I do know some people who smoke while they're taking a dump.

    It was some stand-up comic, but I can't remember the name for the life of me.

    This foreign exchange student from mexico that I know goes to the washroom every morning with a paper and cigarette while he takes a shit. Sits on the toilet for about 15 minutes.

    Make an archive of images from people dying of Emphysema to see if it helps. I'll start with a great picture of a lung destroyed by smoking habits:
