edit as some of you may know, i don't have teeth, and it's too soon to get my dentures yet, sooo... chewing gum is pretty much out of the question =/ atleast last time i tried to quit i could chew gum.

you dont have teeth?...and your twenty-somethin?
damn dude, i bet if you could re-do things youd brush more often, eh?

yeah i would have, but you grow up 'knowing' what your parents teach you, and my grandma always told me that brushing wasn't important... by the time i knew any diffrent it was already too late...

Because it's a serious addiction. And it's not just a physical one but also a behavioral one. I remember hearing Dr. Drew Pinsky and other addiction experts on a panel say that cigarette addiction is one of the most profound addictions there is. Ranks up there with a substance we can't mention here that comes from poppies--and with another one people create in labs using over-the-counter psuedoephedrine-containing meds. They truly said cigarettes rank up there with those two hardest addictions to conquer.

Try drinking some water. Another tip I read someplace suggested that sucking on a straw can help replace the inhalation behavior. Might be worth trying. . . .

I smoked my last cig on New Years Eve, then I quit. I've been done with withdrawl for about 2-3 days.
I can proudly say I am not a smoker of tobacco anymore, well, except socially and that ain't often. I am not longer addicted to nicotine.

i just watched your compilation and that accident at the end was by far the funniest thing ive seen all week.

I really don't understand the big deal with quitting cigarettes. I dont know if i ever will. I've been smoking for about 3 years and for me its really just a social and relaxing thing. Recently I havent been smoking much, not for about two weeks, and I really dont want one. I dont have any lying around either, though, so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it. I guess it would be harder not to smoke if you have cigarettes with you
