Do you/Did you smoke cigarettes?

[CarolinaAllDay]

Yes, 6 years

I smoke, don't want to say how many years. I also was a heavy drinker for almost 20yrs until my liver had enough. Had to quit and have been sober for 11-12 yrs now. Way easier to quit drinking than to stop smoking. (For me)

Me and my brother started smoking at 15 I smoked weed and he went with cigs. 15 years later he has a horrible cough and a need to smoke a pack a day while ive got the best lungs my doctor has ever seen.

I used to smoke the occassional cig or cigar when I was in my teens if we were out camping or fishing. When I met my 2nd wife, she was, and still is, a smoker and so I started smoking full time for about 9 months or so. It tore my guys up really bad so it made quitting that much easier. Whenever I get a craving now, I just remember the stomach pain it gave me and the craving is gone. I'm really really happy I don't smoke.

[Claws]

yes. still do for the last 19 years. 2packs a day min.

One of the things that keeps me from picking it up now is the price. I cannot imagine paying so much for cigarettes. I have about 1 million other things I'd rather spend my money on.

No deathsticks for me.

I quit for good on December 17 2006. I had already quit for 3 months or so but the Steelers were hammering the Panthers that day and I was in Picassos listening to the douchebag steeler fans. I was so stressed I asked Mintal for a smoke and to this day that was my last one.

I still think about it from time to time, and even considered smoking one a few times in stressful moments, but I've never caved. Yay me!

i quit when I was 18. I first smoked in 5th grade and started smoking a lot in high school. I feel bad for my friends that smoke. Not only is it pointless but they are expensive as hell now.

Bought my 1st pack of smokes on my 13th birthday, that was 25 years ago...I still smoke and fuggin hate it. The cost, the smell on me & my clothes, the poo I cough up.. Needed to quit, have cut down to almost nothing quite a few times recently. Its gettin through that 1st 24 hours that gets me. I was going to quit before & after I got married, when my son was born, when he turned 1, when my daughter was born, when she turned 1, and other random quit dates between them. My son will be 5 in April.

I cannot stand the habit, but I do like to smoke. Dig the cause, hate the effect. I still enjoy it, I think that is why I keep allowin myself to continue. I have lots of triggers too. Phone call, driving, before I leave if the family is with me, 1st thing in the am, got a few minutes at work...

Realizin how exactly weak-minded it is as I sit here typing this. Been thinkin lots lately about a new quit date, this thread is quite inspiring, come to think of it. Thank you LiaG, Ima make it today... Well, tomorrow, just opened a fresh deck last night, I'll quit tonight, when its gone..... Tomorrow... Thursday for sure.... Or enjoy it 1 more weekend, so it'll be Monday.. Definitely by Tuesday....

Nope. That one is asking people not to start smoking. This thread is not.

[mmmbeans]

anybody tried those e cigs? i hear they work pretty well... not quite as good as the real thing but close enough, no poo in your lungs and you get the fix.

[NCstoner420]

Never smoke a cigarette, didn't ever see the point of it.
