MIRACLE: I quit smoking cigs cold turkey w/ no withdrawal. o.O

coronapapi · 06-30-2010, 03:19 PM

I can't understand it. I've been smokin cigs for about 5 years. I've quit smoking a few times before and it was hell. Now I've quite cold turkey since I'm poor as hell...and I'm just fine. I mean sure I would just LOVE a good drag right now, but it seems like its kinda workin how weed does for me.
i.e.
"I really want a bowl/cig! I can't have one! Damn!" and that's the end of it. haha
Anyone have any idea why there's been no withdrawal from the cigs?

Mind over matter, that's why.
Who cares why, just go with it. congrats

How long has it been since you smoked?

Also I went cold turkey and really didn't find it much of a problem after about 3 days. Just kinda set my mind to it and it was done. The only real bitch was the habitual times I'd always smoke.

quitting is easy when you actually want to quit

coronapapi · 06-30-2010, 03:29 PM

6 days since my last cig.
Of course now the challenge is going to be turning down cigarettes. :P
I've done it before tho.

Andy0_0 · 06-30-2010, 03:30 PM

Lloydy has a point, i think it's all to do with people just wanting an easy way out, and then not being able to actually quit because there mind dosent really want to..

coronapapi · 06-30-2010, 03:35 PM

I agree Andy.
btw, where's the Thanks button at?

When you make up your mind to quit, no matter how hard it is, it's always easier than if you go into it wondering if you'll be able to succeed. You gotta have that, "Just Bring It" attitude, and if you do, the cravings seem to get scared and give you a wide berth, like they know you da man.

Quitting habitual smoking is easy. Cutting out cigarettes 100% is hard. I still smoke em at parties pretty much every time. Never crave em otherwise though.
