You must revise your life.
It's been one week since I had a cigarette. I've smoked twenty a day since I was fifteen; I'm thirty-two now! God I miss it, but I didn't like the look of the crud I was coughing up each morning.

I am in to day 2 of starting Chantix to help me stop smoking. During the first week you are allowed to still smoke. My quit date is next Wednesday. By then my system shld be immuned to the medication and hopefully I won't have the urge to smoke. I'm keping my fingers crossed that it works. My aunt has already told me if I get the urge to smoke, I shld call her.
What Are You Crazy!!!
When I worked grounds/maintenance at my old boarding school, my boss said he smoked when he was in 'Nam from '67-'71--three-and-a-ahalf years.
Claims he quit cold turkey. Like that. Eats fire and ****s smoke.

Watch someone you love very dearly die of (smoking induced) lung cancer very slowly in front of your eyes... weakening day by day... becoming a shadow of his previous self both physically and mentally...
I just did and, believe you me, if I had been a smoker, I would have given it up there and then.

I hear Chantix works. So good luck with that!!

Amen, Scher. My father's heart problems can all be traced to him being a smoker from a teenager. It truely destroys your life. Quit people, quit. You will enjoy your life so much better.

That's hilarious! When I smoked, I had a "smoking jacket" which was one of those lined flannel shirts....it was totally hideous. When I came in from smoking, I would throw it in a heap because I didn't want it touching my other clothes in the closet. If I hung it up, it would just smoke everything thing else up in the closet. I never was clever enough to use a smoking kerchief though...Ha ha, I thought I was the only one who had to wear a "smoking jacket" -- but what about your hair? I put on my 'smoking bonnet' for that (it is a kerchief).... omg I am giving away all my stupid secrets all for a cigarette.... isn't this crazy? WE need to stop smoking!
Luckily I quit. But lately I have been wanting a cigarette. I was thinking I might go buy a pack of clove cigarettes instead.
"...if you weren't smart enough to get a pedophile in a dress to put a small amount of water on the child’s forehead, then what the eff did you think was going to happen?
Yep, I agree with the people saying to quit. My brother-in-law said he would never ever quit and then he got severe lung cancer and had to actually have one lung removed, after weeks of chemothearpy to shrink his tumor. He was lucky and is doing well now. This immediately convinced him and gave him the perfect incentive to quit smoking. It was either keep smoking or die. I guess one should think about that. So whatever you can do to quit, I would say do it! If it requires medication or a patch for you, then seek it out and throw away those cigarattes. They will catch up to you eventually and alternatives are not so nice. My brother-in-law went through hell literally and lot of pain and distress, but at least he is alive now. He hasn't touched a cigarette since.

I have seen it too, I'm sorry to say, and I can only agree. Seeing people quit, or better still, not start in the first place makes me happy: I have already told you how strongly I feel about this subject.
Brilliant, Steph
Yes, if that does not make you quit, nothing will...
Since the turn of the millennium the number of young people taking up smoking has been steadily declining here in Sweden, but yesterday I heard that the decline has ceased, or even been reversed. This is bad news.
