After smoking for a little over two years, I think I'm quitting. I'm pissed off that I'm sick again and haven't thought about a smoke since Monday...

Its time to end it!

Just thought I'd let ATOT know...

That's the way to do it. Wait till sick w/ a bad cold or sinus problems then go out and smoke a whole pack of cigarettes. You won't want any the next day and there you go, you've kick started a smoke free life.

Be more confident about it.

You'll gain several years of your life back, increase the quality of life of those years, save money, and reduce any risk of health problems of any kids you have.

However, initially your quality of life will be low because of the addiction.

The only addiction withdrawal experience I have is ritalin. It wasn't fun. I've seen people quitting smoking. It drives them crazy, especially when they're around people that still smoke.

Anyway, good luck.

GO FOR IT :D

Seriously, goodluck. It'll probably be one of the best things you ever do. Just stick with it and never..ever...give in :)

I am pretty dead set on it... I just hope the next time I'm drunk I don't smoke... It will be hard, from what I've heard...

..good going. Only takes 3 days to clear your system after that it's self control. Remember. YOU are in control.

My friend went cold turkey a few months ago and hasn't looked back :)

Edit: in fact, none of my friends or family smoke. W00t!
