I smoked for over 20 years, about a pack to a pack-and-a-half a day. I quit cold turkey, after many false starts in the preceding years, on May 5, 2003. And I haven't had a cigarette once in all that time, or any other tobacco product. My secret? I was basically flat broke and couldn't afford to smoke anymore, so I had to choose between food and cigarettes.

Eventually, food won out.
Beeblebrox.420 Reviewed by Beeblebrox.420 on . Quitting Smoking Hi all, Been smoking for a long time and really need to quit. Been looking on whyquit.com and they say not to use any nicotine products whatsoever, because the cravings will just continue, i want to totally clear the addiction. I also smoke weed (joints) which i mix with tobacco, if i quit smoking and then come to smoke a joint, i will start to get cravings again because i just got some nicotine, and i will be addicted to joints in the same way cigarettes because of the nicotine.
