2 weeks of the tobacco,things are starting to look up
    #11602805 -

so that's me 2 weeks of the cigarettes,lol,never thought i would manege it.
I've been smoking since i was 15 and had always promised myself i wouldn't be smoking by the time i hit 30,lol,i think i just started panicking as the big 30 got closer so i quit 4 days before my birthday,didn't want to have spent more than half my life as a smoker.

i actually made the decision while on shrooms and gave up there and then,i gave my tobacco to my friend and quit instantly,the first couple of days was surprisingly easy as i just got totally stoned on bongs(apart from a 10 minute laps where i practically ripped my house apart looking for tobacco before coming to the decision not to go out and buy some and just settled for a hash bong).

i took more shrooms with a bottle of Scotland's finest on my birthday and maneged that whole night without even a craving.

so without giving myself to many pats on the back i feel I've crossed the point of no return now,I'm still getting the odd craving here and there but its mainly plain sailing now.

so who has quit or in the middle of quitting,whats been your experiences/thoughts on it.

do you feel happyer,healthier.
was it easy or hard for you.

i quit once previously in 2003,2 weeks after quiting i moved to Amsterdam to start a new job,lol this was a bad move at the time,i honestly think if i would have stayed at home i would have quit then but being in Holland surrounded with all that lovely hash,and the fact us Brits love to make hash/tobacco joints,well i ended up smoking again.

i really don't think il start again,in fact i know i wont,but every day feels stranger,lol,whats all your thoughts on the subject.

yes i used to be a good boxer when i was younger until the smoking got to my stamina levels that is,no point in crying over spilled milk tho.

as for the tripping without tobacco i found it very easy,in fact the trip passed without any cravings and i used to smoke a 15 gram pack of shag every day and a half,i was drinking whiskey tho,but then usually that would make me crave tobacco even more so the shrooms must have eased the cravings or something.

do you think the difficulty of quitting is over rated?

so far i would say yes,but then we are all different,and under different circumstances and under the wrong mindset i think it would be harder,in other words i think if i would have tried to quit a few months ago i would have failed as i didn't really really want to at that point in time.

I've an uncle who has been unfortunately addicted to opiates for the past 30 odd years and he always told me that if i ever find myself addicted to anything that their will be days when you wake up and want to quit,but they are few and far between and if you don't quit on one of these days you probably never will.

that really rings true for me.
I'm glad it was only tobacco I'm addicted to.

I completely agree with your uncle.  Good luck man, and hope you can stay off tobacco.  I used to be addicted to it but finally managed to quit when it felt perfectly right (after countless quitting attempts and relapses before).  Now I can manage to smoke a single cigarette very occasionally and not fall back into addiction, but I wouldn't recommend this because usually "just one cigarette" quickly escalates and it's not a healthy habit at all.

awesome dude.. if you ever get cravings that have more to do with tobacco, you can always smoke something else besides tobacco ( or weed even) i used to smokew passionflower ciggarettes it was much more satisfying that tobacco for me atleast, just make sure not to get the sweetened kind from the store LOL...

cheers guys,yes I've been smoking the odd bong whenever i get a craving but to be honest I'm not really getting any now,I'm definitely over the hard part.

has anyone noticed when they have stopped but i seem to keep getting flashbacks of like tastes,thoughts and feelings of the way i was before i started smoking,this is really strange but if your good at listening to your inner self(which I'm sure most folk on this site have had plenty practice with the nature of tripping),but just try and notice where those alien thoughts are coming from,surly all thoughts must be triggered with something,its like the further i go without tobacco my brain reveals more and more surprises for me.

it just shows how complex and surprising the brain is.

Neat post - it's good that you can see other good things in the process of quitting.

My brother quit recently cold turkey and he said it was only hard the first few days with the most intense craving at times when he habitually smoked like after eating or getting into his car.
