I quit cold turkey 23 days ago. I had come down with a cough and it hurt to smoke, so I was like, 'gently caress this. I'm going to finish my pack and that's that.' Not a single smoke since. I had tried ecigs back in March, and it helped for a while, but I lost mine and started buying packs again in May. I'm finally getting over the rage... even after the first 3 days I was extremely irritable and couldn't really find the part of me that loves to laugh and joke around. Now it's finally coming back to me. If you're in the 3 day to 3 week period, just hang in there, I promise it gets easier, and your personality really will go back to normal eventually, just hang in there and stay strong edit; The e-cig route is OK... it's definitely better than smoking actual cigarettes, but I realized it wasn't that much better when I forgot my e-cig at home before work and had a crisis deciding whether to turn around and get it, and be late, or buy a pack of smokes on the way to work. It was worse than just forgetting cigs at home, because I bought a pack after not doing it for over a month,. The panic made me realize that just because I was saving money and didn't smell bad didn't mean all was well - the feeling of not having the addiction now is amazing. e2; Also saw a couple other people doing this - 23 days, 460 cigarettes not smoked, $161 not spent on cigarettes. Seven bucks a pack was a lot. Dramatika fucked around with this message at 18:31 on Jul 13, 2013 |
