People tell me that quitting cigs is harder than crack and heroine. How much truth to this is there? There is no way the withdrawal is as bad for cigs as those drugs I just dont see it
:bye: Recovered crack addict here. It was far easier to quit crack and alcohol than ciggarettes. I smoked rock for about 7 or 8 years, steadily. I have yet to truely quit cigs, I am consistantly going back to smoking a pipe (tobacco pipe, not whack), then back to cigs again. I just can't quit.
omg the funniest thing just happened! im sitting at the rutgers library and some shady guy comes up to me asking me for 10 cents to make a phone call. He tells me he has 50 but needs 10 more. So I give him a quarter after which he says "thank you kind sir" and walks to some lady 10 feet from me and asks her for more change......lol. Godamn crackheads man! Atleast this one is smart he knows where the money is at. I had a feeling he was a crackhead from his clothes....tooo funny. I hope he comes back so I can yell at him and ask for my money back! Btw....when he shook his pocket is sounded like hehad 5 dolallar in change, not 50 cents! I cannot believe I was outwitted by a crackhead
See, this is why I never started smoking. I NEVER have met a smoker who's only comments about smoking were anything other than "man, I should quit this" or "I can't quit" or "it's so hard to quit." My father used to smoke 2-3 packs of cigarettes per day, for god... years. He used to play in bands, guitar, since he was a kid, right up until.... well, he never stopped. He woke up one day though, in the middle of the night, coughing up blood... this is of course in the 80's, after they finally started actually telling people that smoking was bad, when the information started to become public. Quit cold turkey, right then and there, never smoked another one... I mean never. That's the way to go. Just never heard anyone say one kind word in favor of smoking.. So the motivation to start just wasn't ever really there I suppose. I think I'm grateful now, to all those people who did smoke and complained. It's always best when you can learn vicariously.
