before anyone asks no I have never smoked in front of my daughter - I always smoke outside.

Saturday morning trying to sort the kid's lunches out
Every time I went into the kitchen they started fighting, meaning I couldn't make lunch. This happened about 10 times and the "Dad" fuse blew then.
Never smoked but both of my parents stopped just after my daughter was born. Mam used patches then the "fake" cigarette thing. Dad just stopped

Exactly.
All the "how do I quit?" whining is just pathetic, I tried all sorts but in the end it was just a matter of manning the fuck up and stopping, while accepting I'd be an arsehole for a week or so. Anything else is just window dressing, if you lack the willpower, it won't help, if you have the willpower you don't need it.

Well Shirley,
Me response was honest, if couched in mock abusive tones. You stop by stopping. It's like the whole diet industry thing, there's no beg secret, you just eat better/less and/or excersize more, simple. However, there's lots of money to be made from gum, patches, inhalers and such, which allow you to remain addicted while not smoking. Granted they can be useful to ween yourself off the habit part, but at the end of the day, no willpower = no quit.

you can and do break a physical nicotine addiction in just under 3 days
the rest is psychological, and therefore arguably gum and that shit makes it worse as it extends the physical addiction.

Indeed.
It can be a lesser evil han smoking, as it doesn't give you cancer, but dressing it up in all this arguably makes it feel like quitting is a bigger deal than it is.
1) stop smoking
2) sufer for a few days
3) deal with it.

This is true
If you truly want to give up, it is far easier to find the willpower.
Giving up is hard/near impossible if you do not actually want to do it.

i've never smoked
but it is the most pointless, pathetic and disgusting habit. it smells, it is expensive, it is anti-social, it stains your teeth, your fingers, it is bad for you, you have NO IDEA how badly you stink to non-smokers, both in terms of breath and even just following you into a lift or something. and lots of smokers leave their vile butts lying around. i once had a date with a guy who not only smoked cheap-ass rollies, but left half a tonne of them on the windowsills of my balcony without making any effort to clear them up. one of the rudest, most ignorant things i've ever seen.
so quit because you're a winner!
i think my answer to the second question also covers the first.

It is an extremely stupid habit.
Went to a cessation clinic at my GP's this morning. Plan is stop tomorrow evening once my wife has gone to her parents for a week. That way I will get through the first few most difficult days without shouting at her.

my grandma's blackened toe stump is definitely why i didn't ever smoke when all my mates were getting into it. and when the doctor told her she had to give up smoking, she said defiantly: and what if i don't?
that's fine, he said. but i'll see you this time next year to take off the rest of your leg.
she gave up.

I'm a fairly recent convert to rollies, and have found that I've cut right down as a result of not being arsed to keep making them. Last night, as I sat down in the porch freezing my nuts off, I figured that winter time is as good a time as any to try giving up. Especially if it's a fucking cold winter.

Why are taxi drivers permitted to use bus lanes? Especially bus lanes with their own traffic lights which override the sequence of the normal lights? This makes me angry.
Alt: I gave up cigarettes at college and smoked week instead (because weed smoking doesn't count as smoking). While it is true that you will not smoke the same amount as you would with cigarettes, I would not recommend this method. Especially to a new father.

I went away for a long weekend away
Took no cigarettes, just gum. By Monday I was barely bothering with the gum.
The key, though, was smugly telling everyone how easy it was. Once I was back in familiar surroundings I got the craving back full force but if I'd caved, I'd have never heard the end of it.
It ended up taking about two weeks of gum to get through it - hard and unpleasant but I just about got through it.
Don't bother with the electronic cigarettes, they don't help with the psychological addiction so you might as well go for gum or patches.

1) Get patches. (You don't need them but you'll think you do and they're as far removed from mimicking smoking as you can get.)
2) Be prepared to put on a bloody stone in weight. If you fancy a bifter, eat something. If you can eat healthy snacks fine, but if you fancy naughty snacks, you deserve it - you're giving up smoking. You can go on the diet afterwards.
3) Find something else to do. A project, something with your hands, whatever. Be busy.

I still have the odd fag very, very occasionally when I'm drunk, but I accept that as fair price to pay for 20 years of smoking.
I do "get" some of rswipes argument about it as a habit generally, but I'm obliged to point out it's certainly no more antisocial than a fair few other habits. and it's no more or less pointless than drinking, it's just providing a narcotic to your body.

I lost my temper in about 1992 and have yet to regain it.
I only started smoking cigarettes a few years ago and only do so in evenings and weekends. I don't think I am addicted as I go a minimum of two days a week with absolutely none. Why I am telling you this I don't know - it's of no use to you whatsoever.
Sorry old chap.

I'm not a smoker
but a work colleague who's been on 20+ a day since he was in his teens (he's now nearing 50) has been put on Champits(sp?) tablets. He's now 40+ days without a fag.
However, he comes off the tablets in a few weeks, so that'll be the real test.

more worrying is the sheer number of people who think a rampant rabbit is a dildo. it is not a dildo. it is a vibrator. there is a difference. a DIY difference.

Which means I'm going to have to leave work early today to get them before they close. When it's now 12:50. So today, thanks to doctors, I'm only going to be in work for about 3 hours 45 minutes.
Fuck's sake, this is like the 5th time she's done this.

Quit halfway through a pack
that way if you cave you will just have the one rather than going out and buying a new pack which you "might as well finish" I quit nearly 4 years ago and I still have the pouch I quit with. If I cave now it tastes like shit.
Also, don't bother cutting back. just quit. Nicotine withdraweral only lasts a few days, after that its just habit.
