I'm a cigarette Lover. I love the smell and the taste.
When I quit, some 15 months ago, I remember stopping my car near roofing trucks, opening the windows and breathe deeply while everybody on the streets we're running in the opposite direction.Ah that Tar smell!

Still today, I ask smokers to smoke in my face direction. I just love it.

But since I'm a lunatic I don't quite remember when I squit smoking... so I don't count the days, months and years. That'll probably save me on the long run. Y'know, the ones that count are the ones that smoke up again, usually

Djarum ocasionally. Something like a pack of ten on party once a 3 months, when i drink good red wine. The tastes somehow comunicate with each other.
I used to smoke cigarettes regularly, but quit during second year on university. From that moment it stinks to me

If you are inclined to smoke, avoid premium imported cigars. It's easier to quit cigarettes than good cigars. (I've done both.) Quitting cigars feels somewhat like losing a friend (even though it's actually an enemy).

Haven't seriously tried to quit. Should be able to, even though it's been 41 years now. Gave up booze after between 20 and 25 years of alcoholism.

I quit a 2 pack a day habit on June 12, 2004. I am approaching three years without a cigarette. I stopped cold-turkey. It was my third attempt.

My weight has gone from 235 to 290.

I'm working on the weight thing.

I smoked since I was 13...now almost 58 but I stopped cold turkey for over 18 years.....anyway, about 5 years ago I was in Germany for a month and of course couldn't resist Cuban cigars......$5.00 USD then...so I bought about 50 and returned home..USA/Philly...well they smoked up and that led to smokes again...unbelievable...for over 18 years I never thought about smoking...anyhthing....now 5 years later It's really hard to quit.....I tried Chantix...everything but I'm in trouble.....

now next week I'm trying some Homeopathic remedies......

It's not just a mental thing...I have a very hard withdrawl...like heroin withdrawl.......don

Personally, I find it very amusing.

Started when I was 16, quit at 22. I started up again at 24 then stopped again at 26. I haven't started full time again since then (I'm now 31.) Sometimes on a saturday night after dinner and a good drink chatting with friends a cigarette (or 10) really hits the spot.

Too bad cigarettes are so detrimental to ones health. Were they not dangerous I'd be a lifetime smoker.

 

[DougK]

I didn't see an option for "not anymore" but before I quit, it was "occasionally," so that's what option I selected.

 

[potomo]

Here the same of Dougk: never smoke one!

 

[jrong]

Never smoked and never will. Whats the point?

One of my grandfathers died prematurely of emphysema and he was a chain smoker.

I voted "seldom or never", because I only smoke when I go and see my sister, and even then it's only a few drags.

Doctor Zero

P.S. Did I mention she lives in Holland?

 

[chris000]

How do you smoke socially? I would have hoped that these days that would be considered a contradiction.

I voted seldom or never - but it's definitely never

 

[fidget]

I must recommend quitting. In the 8 or so years since I quit, aside from feeling great and empowered etc........you should see the amount of gear that I have bought, all on the pretext of using the funds saved by not smoking! I think that I have spent it three times over!

How do you smoke socially?

Chris, not everyone who smokes uses tobacco. His sister lives in Holland where there is a far more rational approach to the use of cannabis than the hysteria inflicted on people in the "land of the free."

I smoked 3 packs a day till I hit 40-Then I went cold turkey. I still miss them.

I enjoy good quality cigars on special occasions but barely ever smoke. I did a little when I was a kid with all my friends - I figured out most girls dont like the smell. My grandfather died of lung cancer. Don't smoke cannibis either. Most of it is laced with something or the other these days, I prefer a good wine.

Besides, I already have one addiction! (10 points to those who can guess)
