goose491 0 #30 August 14, 2002 Geez, would you look at this thread? You were looking for support and you found it bud!Seriously though, I am one month short of a smoke free year!!!!... (well, let's say cigarette-free year) I had been smoking since grade 6 (I'm 23 now). After a few weeks, you'll be caughing up the lung-butter... I know this is gross but dude, just appreciate that your body is getting a chance to finally clean all that shit out! Oh yeah, fish for the complements man! Dont' be ashamed to blurt out in front of friends:"Guys it's been a week without smoking!"... "Guys, it's been a month without smoking!"... fish for the "Way to go buddy that's great!" responses cause they help... If you're at the bar, have been drinking and feel that need for a smoke, figure out how long it's been and tell your buddy... listen carefully to the responses of smokers... almost all of them will say congrats and that they wish they could quit too. This was my secret source of extra will power Anyway, just a trick of the trade. Good luck man and "Wow that's great! keep it up!" My Karma ran over my Dogma!!!

megscott73 0 #31 August 14, 2002 Wow, it's great to hear about all of you who have been able to quit. My quitting day is this coming Friday & I'm really hoping I'll be able to do it without killing somebody! ======================= "What I want is what I've not got ,but what I need is all around me"-DMB Meghan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goose491 0 #32 August 14, 2002 QUIT NOW.... NOT FRIDAY... TRUST ME!!!! QuoteMy quitting day is this coming Friday & I'm really hoping I'll be able to do it .... Hey this is another problem when trying to quit. Lot's of people say:"When this pack is finished, I quit! I'm not buying another pack!" or "I'm going to quit smoking, starting THIS FRIDAY" Setting a future date to stop smoking handicaps your will-power in a way you may not be aware of. Let me explain. If you say:"I'm quiting when this pack is done", then you have made a solid, conscient decision to quit... but you still have half a pack to finish so you keep smoking... sub-conciously, you've already lost a part of the battle by disobeying yourself... get it? Anybody will tell you that will-power is the most important part of quitting. Now that you've decided to quit on Friday, your brain and body are aware of this... I know it sounds funny but throw away the cigaretts you have left RIGHT NOW and youre chances of success will increase dramaticaly I promise. It is better to quit with cigarettes left than without... when I decided I was going to quit I said "when this pack is finished" then I lit a smoke and thought about it.... I put it out, left my pack on the bar at my place, told my friends to finish them and went to bed... That's when I quit and it was the best move I could have made. Jut my $0.02CND... What's an extra two days anyway eh? P.S. "That's excellent! Keep it up? Congrats!!!" My Karma ran over my Dogma!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FliegendeWolf 0 #33 August 14, 2002 Very true. I used to do this all the time. I'd decide to quit when the pack I had was finished, then when it was, I'd go buy another pack. I recall thinking to myself that all I needed to do was wait until I got the desire to quit when I was finished with a pack. It didn't take me long to realize that that would never happen!!A One that Isn't Cold is Scarcely a One at All Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seedy 0 #34 August 14, 2002 I totally agree about quitting where you are - don't wait to finish the pack or carton. And don't use the word "hope" as in "I'm hoping I can do this". That is another handicap to actually quitting and gives you an out when it gets a little rough. You have to make the decision and just remember that your willpower is strong enough to carry through. I quit after 23 years and it was the best decision I ever made. I left a full pack on the endtable when I made the decision. I intend to live forever -- so far, so good.
