| I really wanna quit smoking...it's a hard habit to let go. Since a couple months, I'm pretty afraid of having a cancer pretty soon. I've been smoking for the last 9 years now, I think it's time to quit...I will fix myself a date....I only smoke about 2-3 cigs per day when I am busy...but it can go up to 10-12 when I'm drinking with my buddies....plus the girlfriend hates it.... |

Try doing something like signing up for the Gym at the same time. Thats one aspect that really made sure I didn't pick up another cig once I had quit. They play off of each other. You don't smoke because you go to the gym/ You go to the gym because you don't smoke and are trying to be healthier. |

I'm a hard core nicotine addict or maybe I'm a weak willed loser. I've lost count how many times I relapsed and started up again. The addiction is always there, waiting to strike in a weak moment. I don't worry about quitting forever. I'm simply grateful when I can string some smoke free time together.
Too bad I started smoking again in October. I had a good year without cigarettes.
I'll quit again. I always do. And then I'll relapse again. :o |

I'm not sure how much cigs cost in your area but in NYC i pay around $9.50 for Newports which is rediculous i know. |
this is another reason i wanted to quit. i used to buy those buy 1 get 1 free promo packs for roughly $4, so $2/pack pretty much and i got them on a regular basis. then the taxes got increased and i couldnt find a pack of smokes for less than $5.50. no promos nothing. cant imagine ever paying 9.50. that. |

i think the only reason why smoking is the hardest addiction to quit is because of the ease of procuring it and its legal status. because let me tell you, quitting the "big" (i guess you could call it) physically addictive drugs like opiates or benzos is BY FAR much much MUCH more difficult than quitting cigs.
good on ya regardless, jp. i'm coincidentally 9 days into kicking a few bad habits myself. |

| and yeah, as with almost all physical/mental addictions, the first few days are the ing WORST. every day gets easier though. think about how you smell like when you smoke. smoking is the most repulsive ing habit out there, imo. |

Do it mate, nothings stopping you. Plus a few Gyms might still have promos on for New Year resolutions. |

| I always found it ironic that nurses smoke despite that they work in health care. |
