Quitting.

If I only had the will power I'd quit in a heartbeat

The cigs! not the weed lol

anyone got any tips i must of tried over 30 times now

I was thinking "yeah right" till I read what it was you were
quitting then I still thought "yeah right" LOL kidding.

I have tried to quit smoking a few times myself but nothing
has worked yet so, tell me if you find out what does work.
I would have to say the time I just quit cold turkey was the
one that lasted the longest with the patches I would just smoke
while wearing them LOL.
Maybe try smoking a nontabacco cigarette instead, they have
these herbal cigarettes where I live that contain no tobacco
or nicotine. I never tried them but maybe replacing one of
those instead of a cigarette every time you get the urge it
might help with the cravings.

I used to smoke cigarettes, but was never all that crazy about it. I'd still buy packs, and have about 4-5 a day, usually after I had blazed. There was a couple of things that made me completely quit. First, I realized that smoking cig's is a sign of weakness in one way or another. It shows bad decision making. It's not helping you at all. Basically, you are paying someone for bad health, the worst deal of all time. Second, FUCK THE TOBACCO COMPANIES, seriously, fuck them. And the thing that really made me quit those damn things was the video game Metal Gear Solid, which I was a huge fan of. The dude you play as starts with a pack of smokes, and if you smoke them and call your 'doctor' on the radio, she goes into how they are horrible for you. It really made me think, if a video game is telling me these things are horrible, I might as well just get the fucking point already.

The way I did it was I started running every day. After I was done running that first time, I realized how bad of shape my lungs were in, and was picturing what they probably looked like. After that, whenever I felt the urge for a smoke, I'd just think about how nasty those things really are, and what they actually do to you. Fucking society tricking me into thinking that I actually WANT one of them, like it's good for me somehow or something. "Docile consumer, go buy some bad health and be a good citizen, it's cool!"

And the idea that really gave me the willpower to quit - how totally fucking pissed I'd be if I got cancer and died because of them. I'd just think of how totally fucking let down I'd feel about myself if I went to the doctor and he told me I was gonna die soon because of cigarettes. The momentary lack of boredom and the urge to consume that a cigarette offers is not worth horrible health and death to me. The wierd thing is that I couldn't see them for what they really were when I first started smoking, it took awhile for me to figure out what was really going on.

Oh, and toothpicks were what I replaced with smokes. Just having something in my mouth was a learned behaviour I picked up, and toothpicks worked just peachy for me. And I could always carry a bunch of them in my pocket.

Good luck!

Thanks for all the feedback everyone its harder than most people say "just do it" etc theres always that voice in your head that goes "just have one more" and you cant help but do it

i just don't understand how you are gonna let a cigarette affect you, it's so tiny, and you are bigger, honestly, you can give it up, it's just that you need to break the connection of cigarettes and feeling good. Just think about how this little thing with no brain that drains ur cash is smarter than you, you gotta be smarter than the cig man,
smarter than the cig


right after that, spark a bowl of blueberry

Okay we just learned about cigs and stuff in my college health class. And here is an interesting thought...

People who use telephonic counseling are 50% more likely to quit than going at it alone.

Best of all it's free. I can't remember if it's 1-800-ucanquit but something like that I'm sure you can find the number online. Around here there's tv commercials on for it all the time.

They'll also give you coupons for discounts that work for nicotine patches and gum. Nicotine patches and gum increase your chances of quitting by 25%.

So good luck...
I've tried quitting a lot and never have been able to....
Damn ciggarettes...
