not worth mentioning really, just a particular member who frequents the wasteland section starting threads about particular countries & smartarse admins/moderators whoever has the ability to filter certain words.

The first week will suck the most, if you can get that there's no reason you can't give up for good

[GTR-N1]

The first week? That's actually not a bad philosophy for a person who has been hospitalized for over a week > goes home and thinks, "Sh!t I've done it for this long: I might as well throw the loose ones away whilst I'm at it"

Being read the 'riot act' in hospital helps too.

Still get patients who have to quit because their surgeons won't operate unless they've already quit.

Well its 1 week since i quit!!!!! The worst is over!!! To be honest it was not bad at all!!!

So who's gonna take up the challenge next?

[Silvia GTR]

I am in the process of it. I quit cold bird years ago for 3 years.

This time I'll do the same but I have changed to rollies instead of tailors because you smoke a lot less; you never try and smoke while your driving etc.

This week I'll stop. Famous last words I guess lol.

[Humbla]

All the best.

Yes, as stated in Post #14, the filters contain ammonia to make the nicotine more addictive.

Tobacco companies are scum.

A patient that was booked in tomorrow to quit smoking, has just rung up and cancelled. Apparently he didn't realise that it was Melbourne Cup day.

At least some people know what their priorities are (- not).

mini-rant hehe...

Well done son, keep it up!

Take it from someone who's been there, persevere & you'll get to a stage where you'll wonder why you ever took it up in the first place.

I can now hang around a group of smokers & not get the slightest urge to light up even when offered, but it didn't happen overnight

[NISSAN GTR]

One day i realised i spent more than half my life - 21 out of 36 years smoking

I never tried to give up until i got scarring in he lungs , so i decided to give up and found a common thing with smokers

Smoking gives the emotional swing from high to low , if you do give up unfortunately you remain feeling down for at least a year , but you health will improve , i think this is what makes smoking so hard to give up .

The novelty was to start doing everything in life without smoking , driving a car to work , go on holidays , not having a smoke for breakfast , play sport , drink beer and of course not buying any cigarettes ?

What feels great is breaking all the habits, not just one habit !!!!!!!!!

Hope this helps
