Has any of you guys ever smoked and quit? I really need to quit. For the past few months I have been mildly trying. With nothing close to success. If you have quit please tell me what you did to do so. I know its 100% in your head. I know I can do it, But any help and tips would be appreciated. :)
 
I used to smoke a lot of weed. However, my girlfriend has an issue with it and so, with our relationship on the line, I have stopped. I've been clean for a week. Wish me luck.
 
Philly my dad has been smoking since he was like 12. We try to get him to do everything but its so hard.

You really just have to think of the people who love you and have support.

Its such a mental thing. Its all in your head. I really wish I never started. I really wish ciggs where illegal.
 
I'd try to stop smoking with another person who wants to stop smoking. You could both motivate each other, and make sure one person doesn't give in and go back to smoking.

Remember, it's all about the 3 day hump. If you can make it past those first 3 days, you'll be in the clear as long as you don't give in to temptation.

By the way, prepare for those 3 smokeless days to be absolute hell.

I think I can do 3 days. And I will tell you what though. It will be hell and I know it. I have gone a day without smoking before. I was probably the biggest dick ever. and passed in circles for hours. :/ I want to get my dad to quit with me but he has been smoking for like 30 years so I doubt that will ever happen unfortunately.

The main thing is keeping occupied. If you try quitting smoking on a weekend where you're just chillin' at home doing shit all, it's going to straight up suck shit. Going for a nice long bike ride works well, since when you get back you'll just wanna sleep, boom, day over. Plus you'll get exercise. Lol.

I kinda like that idea. Right now I have half a cigg left. I think I am going to smoke it right now. So I have none and never pick one up again. When I want one again I will just go do something. :)
 
I've never smoked before and I hope to keep it like that. I just think it is a bad habit to get into.
Best of luck to you Philly. I hope you end up quitting.

Haven't smoked for a few hours now. Feeling a bit feisty.

Thats pretty lame, I personally would never consider changing my ways for another person. I find that being worse than anything else in the world.

You should at least make her try it first..
 
Like JMan said, I too have never smoked, nor do I plan on doing so.

I have no advice since I have no experience, but I wish you the best of luck on your path to being a non-smoker!

Thanks, Also never smoke it is 100% pointless.

Well good! Keep at it! At first obviously its hard but it's only going to get easier!
 
My mom's dad died from smoking when she was young and she and my dad still smoked until about 2 years ago. I tried to hard to get them to stop for so long until I kept reminding my mom about her dad until she was near tears, and I did not talk to them or acknowledge their existence until they finally quit. It was hard but in the end they gave it up.

Its been about a day and a half. And I am alright. I don't really even want one. I already don't even think about them. I just need to stop talking about them and seeing them and it will be much easier,

Damn, Thats sucks. Glad they ended up quitting though! :)
