How I Quit Smoking Cigarettes

I quit smoking ciggies a few months ago using a vape pen .. I feel addicted to that now though

I'm on day 7 of Champix right now. I was easily a pack a day smoker and have quit for 3 days now and going strong.

Crazy thing about it is that I just don't crave the cigarettes anymore. I keep waiting for the withdrawal but it just hasn't come yet. Stay strong bro

i smoked cigs for 12 years. And quit 15 years ago. I just carried a pen in my hand at all.times. And smoked a bowl instead of a cigarette. After the first 3 weeks. Its easy. Then you don't want to smoke anything for a while because your throat becomes more sensitive once all the nicotine clears out. When i quit. Cigs were still $2 a pack. That was right before the first tax hike on cigs and the

I smoked for 20+ years and finally decided I really hated doing it.
I dropped them in a shit can & went cold turkey. I have not touched one in the last 14 years - in fact I can't stand the smell or taste of them.

Are you still smoke free or did you fall off the wagon? I hear quitting nicotine is harder than quitting heroine. Although I've known a few ppl to quit cold turkey.
Never smoked but I have quite an affinity for candy cigarettes. I know...they're just not the same.
Really, I thought when the price jumped to more than a dollar a pack no one would buy them. Now what are they priced at...like six, seven bucks? Holy shit.
Need an update...enquiring minds want to know.

Vaping was my chosen method of quitting smoking. I smoked for 20 years, decided to pick up a decent e-cig and haven't smoked a single cigarette since the day I picked up my e-cig. 13 months going strong and not a hint of craving a cig. Vaping lets you have your nicotine and simulates smoking to help with the habit of pulling out a smoke. You get your fix without combusting a slew of chemicals...just some oil and nicotine. I feel so much better...smokers cough 100% gone and I got my "wind" back.

Plus, the $ savings is great. I mix my own e-juice, so the cost is ridiculously low.

Just an update for me fellas. Quit smoking at the start of Jan this year and haven't touched one since--- thanks in part to going on Champix.

More of just an fyi for those who might need help quitting.

Cheers

Yep that's my prob I love drinking 2 much

been smoking 8 years, kind of hard to quit when a lot of your friends smoke

Not true - that's a cop out.
I smoked & dipped for over 20 years & quit cold turkey - and my wife still smokes.
I haven't touched a cig in 12 or so years - they make me nauseous now.
