jimboburgess · 09-13-2005, 10:54 AM

woot, no benefits to smoking so it makes sense not to.

reckedracing · 09-13-2005, 11:06 AM

its the 2 stroke fumes... not the butts...

formby · 09-13-2005, 11:10 AM

B...i was a new port smoker since the tender age of 15....i also smoke pot....any way..about 5 weeks ago i decided i ws not giving in to the sweet nicotine anymore...
i would suggest that you atleast try and slow down...maybe a pack a week....soon enough youll forget about it.....atleast i hope so..smoking is bad...and now you say"oh ill die anyway"......well cancer is a painful death and your whole family will suffer.....

buy the gum!!! its nasty but so are your dirty lungs.....

pissedoffsol · 09-13-2005, 11:13 AM

don't need gum or any of that BS. it's all in your head. you just need the courage and desire to follow it.

Havok · 09-13-2005, 11:13 AM

I give it 8 days, 14 hours, 33 minutes and 7 seconds.

formby · 09-13-2005, 11:16 AM

that's how my dad did it...he just all of a sudden quit and has never smoked since.

driverunknown · 09-13-2005, 11:46 AM

that's why you gotta turn to straight-jackin!!!!!!!!!!
just do some laps in the sti in the parking lot when you get the need for a smoke.

And when you stop hacking, then run some laps. with your legs i mean.

Celerity · 09-13-2005, 12:20 PM

Patches. Patches are a god send. Don't even bother quitting without some sort of aid.

Here is my point:

You'll quit this time, and it won't work. How many other times have you been sick and said "This is my chance to stop!" ? I would say, everytime you've been sick for the past 7 years. What makes you think this will be it ?

Cigarettes have caused an addiction, and that addiction is very difficult for even a smoker to comprehend. It's changed your body chemistry for the worst. The receptors that your cells use to feel satisfied (Be it through an ATP reaction, a cellular division or some sort, or the trigger of peptides) no longer work on their own. Nicotine and the other things in cigs trigger those for you - Your adrenal glands, for instance, are completely mis-wired because of smoking. And your adrenal glands also release peptides to your brain and body after you eat. It tells your body to stop wanting food. When you smoke, after a meal, what you're doing is taking that signal away from your adrenal, and making the nicotine trigger it.

Which is why your stop smoking plan is going to end in 10 minutes.

There are ways out of it - And if you wanna co-ordinate, if we can get Clayton, and everyone else on it, then we may be able to stop. Then I'll have 1 friend left that smokes.

pissedoffsol · 09-13-2005, 12:31 PM

thanks for the usual lack of support steve. i knew i could count on you to be a total fucking fuck face

phyregod · 09-13-2005, 12:41 PM

The best advise I can give you:

1. DO keep a pack of ciggarettes around. Throw em in the junk drawer, but do have them. If you have them, thats one thing, but if you DONT have any, it will drive you insane.

2. Quit cold turkey. If you're going to quit, just fucking quit. Quit feeding the monster and it will die.

3. Sleep ALOT. sleep whenever you can, because when you are sleeping, you aren't craving and/or trying to murder people.. I wonder how many people get banned because you are just friggin perma-pissed for the next 3 days?....

4. Three Days. If you can make it three days, you can make it forever. Your physical addiction will be gone. Mental addiction, you may never get over. I quit 3 years ago and still go looking for my cigarettes when I'm seriously pissed or stressed. I never give in, though.

5. The best part! Remember that pack of cigarettes that you kept? When you need a cigarette, think.. Is that pack greater than me? Does it control me? Is my mind so fucking weak that tobacco OWNES me?? No.. You own the pack, and you choose not to smoke, because you are greater than a pack of smokes. Who is stronger?

You'll be just fine.. I kept my pack for about a year and a half before I tossed it. It was just taking up too much real-estate in my junk drawer.
