UGHHH WHY CAN’T THEY JUST INVENT CIGARETTES THAT AREN’T BAD FOR YOU THIS IS 2020 AFTER ALL
Hi, my name is whiterussian and I’ve only had 5 cigarettes between late January and now. Been out for a few drinks tonight and hate everything. Good thing I was with my sister so I would be way too ashamed of myself if I’d had a smoke.
I’ve never managed that long, well done! I remember an old boss saying she hadn’t had a cigarette for 25 years and still felt like she’d snatch one from someone’s mouth at times
Problems with the Internet. Might be a duplicate post.
I had a heavy chest and felt bad for about six months after waking up before finally quitting. That night was a tipping point.
That night I remember throwing away about five lighters from the bottom of my rucksack as well as half a packet of cigarettes as well as half a pouch of Golden Virginia.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m the complete opposite of anything close to healthy at the moment. I drink far more than I should for well over a decade now unfortunately.
Used to fucking love smoking. Then about 9 years ago I moved to Australia and cigarettes are like 25 bucks a pack so I had to teach myself not to love them anymore as I didn’t have a spare 150 dollars every week. Weirdly can’t stand them when I have succumbed to drunken temptation now.
Therefore, smokers: to quit simply move to Australia.
Miss it very very occasionally but then I remember all the fucking shit that comes with it and then how expensive it is and then how horrible my brother (who still smokes) sounds coughing in the morning and then I don’t miss it in the slightest.
Wish I’d given up twenty years ago. Fuck fucking smoking.
Definitely noticed that in Italy last year. Nowhere near the activity of a social pariah like it is over here. Just masses of healthy young attractive people smoking when and where they like.
There are still a couple of friends where i know ill end up smoking if i go out for a few beers with them. But enjoy it less each time. Pure habit/social now.One of these days i guess i might stop for good…
Still, prob only smoking about 50 a year on average over the last 5 . Not too bad.
