has anyone else quit

[farmbif]

today is just one of those days. its cold and raining outside and I'm on second cup of Joe and the fires got the house warm.
I quit smoking some time ago. but today I'm just jonesing for some baccer. I know if I go to store and even get a bag of beechnut or a block of chaw it will lead to a pack or bag of tobacco--nope just don't want to go back there.

I've quit 3 times in the course my life, and am currently quit right now. I really enjoyed smoking (I liked the little cigars), and yeah it's real easy to get re-hooked. I don't think those occasional joneses will ever go away, at least for me they don't. The good thing is that those jonesing thoughts pass pretty quickly.

I vape now. But smoke a pack too in a month.

I quit chew 4 times last time 8 years ago, never smoked. I use Altoids mints when it gets bad. I know one little pinch and I'll be a 2 cans of Cope a week junkie again. Don't give in!

Easiest way to quit is to never start...
Better that way.

I quit July 4th of this year, it’s a tough battle for me, daily! I have been using the nicotine pouches, the brand I buy is called Zyn. They have helped me immensely.

Yah as I am typing I’m quitting, again, for about the 10,000 time! I’ve quit for more than a year! Something pops up, some party I was at, when I was younger, next thing you know, I have one, and it started all over again!

[Lloyd Smale]

about the 5 time in the last 6 months. I get over the tough part and then someone comes over and lights one up and i cant help myself. then i buy a pack saying ill only smoke two a day that will last till the next day then its half a pack a day for a couple days then im right back to a pack. Smoked my last two this morning and am going to CLAIM i quit but i dont know if im quitting or just blowing smoke.

It's been 13 years since I stopped smoking and once in awhile I still crave a cigarette!

[tinsnips]

I had a friend in collage that was hooked on cigs,booze,cocain. He got off all of it to this day but he said tobacco as the hardest to kick. Tobacco killed my dad an my brother don't start up again please.

Me and my wife quit smoking about 30 years ago, we no longer want to smoke but are now dealing with the damage to our lungs.

If someone is smoking in my house there hair better be on fire.

[Mal Paso]

It's been 14 years for me. Straight Pall Malls. If you can resist, it does get better.

I found it easier to put off having that next cigarette, then when you get there put it off again. It's easier than quitting. You're just not going to smoke right now.

[swheeler]

I quit chewing last year after 55 years. I was down to a can a day so cold turkey it was, sucked!

[metricmonkeywrench]

Yep... never goes away... though looking at the taxes put on em' I'm not sure i could afford it anymore, it would definitely get into my reloading budget.

[waksupi]

I still smoke a pipe. I don't inhale, so I suppose it will kill me some other way.

I quit years ago, about a year after I got out of the army. I was smoking a lot of Camels and then I started jogging and quickly came to the conclusion that smoking and jogging didn't mix. I just decided to stop cold.
I wish you luck and the best kicking the smoking.

Quit smoking 37 years ago and will still get the occasional urge. For some reason a nice smelling pipe tobacco gets to me. I know it would probably taste like crap, but they do smell good. Hang in there and just quit. Going part way does not work. Good luck.

Get some Nicorette gum. If you have ever had a loved one die from emphysema/COPD or Lung Cancer. A horrible death. Tobacco has probably killed more people than anything in modern history ..

[Texas by God]

I quit smoking in 2007. It wasn’t hard because I took up chewing tobacco again. I quit chewing tobacco in 2012. That was tough because I had been chewing since 1970. It sounds stupid, but the way I got over it was to teach myself that the craving was the “new nicotine”. If I go to Mexico on vacation, I will enjoy a few Cuban cigars while there- and leave them behind when I return. I’ll crave some Copenhagen or Levi Garret about once every couple of years, but I know that I’d get dizzy and turn pale green if I give in- just like when I was a kid and tried Dad’s Red Man the first time. I don’t miss Marlboros or Drum at all.

[Hogtamer]

yes....harder than hell.
