[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 605535, member: 1514"] LDM....since you have quit I am going to give you some experienced advice. Now that you quit never think you can have just one with the girls or something like that. I quit for 6 years back in the 90's. That first time wasnt all that hard because I had just been diagnosed with asthma and I was scared. Heck my dad had emphysema! He had smoked steadily most of his life and he quit too. I think we quit at the same time if Im not mistaken. It was 1990. Then in 1996 I picked up a cigarette because I was hanging around friends from work in the break room all the time. My office mate smoked. We ended up in a very stressful time at work plus something was going on with difficult child. I asked my coworker for ONE cigarette at work and I was back up to 2 packs a day within a month. This time I have tried several times to quit and its so much more difficult. I have tried Chantix, Im on wellbutrin now and was back in 2000. That isnt helping a bit...lol. I dont even get any feeling like I dont need to smoke. Now I have tried those electronic cigarettes and that might be what does it for me. There is one I really like but Im so addicted to the who process of smoking that its hard. I like opening the pack, lighting the cigarette...the whole shebang. I have never had an issue coming out from under because I smoke. I have trouble not smoking! When I was in the hospital in 2005, they allowed us smokers to go out to the smoking area while we were still in. I had just had a stress test and the moment I got out I grabbed a diet coke and a cigarette before I even went back to my room. I had both of them in a purse I took with me...lol. Im hoping I will quit soon. The prices are getting so high that might be my incentive. I have moved down to the lowest cost generic ones I can find but they are now up to almost 30 bucks a carton. They started out under 20 bucks. *Hopefully one day soon. [/QUOTE]
