the patch worked well for me. was surprised how little i craved. it may have been just a mental thing, but it was good enough for me. maybe just patch up on those times you are going somewhere you think that you will feel desire

I chewed flavored toothpicks incessantly for 8 months when I quit smoking.

I don't think I would have been able to last without them filling the void of not having a cigarette in my mouth.

Noone can stop the craving because nicotine is a parasite in your stomach. Only the strong will can defeat it.
Good luck to everyone

Jesus Christ, Marcin...sometimes the shit that comes outta your mouth..err..fingers is fucking unbelievable.


I quit smoking in November after 10 years, and it was surprisingly easy.

The main thing was recognizing how pathetic it was that I let myself become a slave to such an unhealthy, disgusting habit.

I smoked mostly out of boredom, so breaking the habit was most important for me. Once I did that, I smoked a lot less (duh), and made my eventual termination a lot easier.

Smelling other smokers really helped (and still helps) too. They stink to the point of nausea, and I find it really irritating. I just tell myself "That's what YOU smelled like! Ew gross! YOU'RE gross!!" Amazing how much that helps, lol.

I dunno...you REALLY have to want to do it, because aside from the physical addiction...it's all in your head.

It's also good to acknowledge your cravings when you have them, instead of ignoring or denying it. The feeling only lasts a couple minutes, and the sooner you accept it's there, the sooner it goes away.

Drink LOTS of water!




Good luck man, you can do it.

That cuz most drugs aren't physically addictive (well except heroin, cocaine, and the like), and nicotine is.

Seriously though, I say if it were me I'd just find something to do (not too hazardous or crazy) other than smoking, chewing gum, not thinking about it, but that's just me. I think I could do it cold turkey.



so start then stop... at least you'll look cool while you're doing it.

To quote Justin..

You have to want it bad enough.. if you want to be a non-smoker bad enough it will happen. It is just hard as hell to get there.

Right after the blah Tiesto party, I got a fucking nasty case of bronchitis which is just starting to finally go away. (1 week my fucking ass, eh doc?) Anyway, I'm really getting tired of smoking myself. It's claimed people in my family at relatively young ages (50s and 60s). While I was really hacking, I didn't smoke for nearly 10 days but caved when I went out during the holidays after Christmas. Still, I'm only having 1 or 2 a day and sometimes I go 2 or 3 days without any. It's elmininating those last few puffs that's the real kicker.

Those nicotine withdrawals are worse than I ever imagined though; fucking tension headaches, panicky cravings, a slight feeling of being dizzy/stoned, IRRITABILITY big time and fucking insatiable hunger. What a horrible drug.

cool i have a whole deck still form the weekned and i haven't had one smoke this week so :P


Posted by Flec on Jan-11-2007 18:00:

smoke some really stale ciggeretess or a kind that you absolutely hate, if everytime you have an urge to have a smoke you think about that gross taste from the last time you tried to have one during a craving it will be easier to say no

We still have a huge bag of Lollipops left at 317 from the Halloween party that you can have if you want.

I'll do it for free. I thoroughly enjoy physically harming you, especially this way, seeing as how now you wouldn't be able to do it back. So it'a really a win-win situation. You should seriously consider it. Also, I'm more accessible to you than the aforementioned.
