Trying to quit smoking again. Won't be on for a couple of days.

[Krystal LeChuck]

Hey guys. Since I got sick with the damn flu 5 days ago I decided it would be a good idea to not smoke until its gone. Then 5 days later I decided it would be a good idea to not smoke again. So I'm 5 days smoke free and any external stimulus causes murderous outbreaks.

I will be gone from TS for a couple of days until my blood-thirst wears off.

Stay strong buddy. I know nicotine addictions are hard to quit. Don't mind me as I put in another dip.

 

[Montoya]

You can do it Krystal!

The blood thirst will only make you stronger for when the PU launches.

I was smoke free for 4 years. Then I came back to Greece and fell into its clutches again. I know that if I manage another week I'm good. The really bad cravings will be gone, plus I will be getting a new mobo, a GTX780 Ti and more RAM next week to retain the hole in my wallet.

stay strong, dont let the stinky rolls beat you.

Everytime you get the urge, don't do it for the sake of your PC!

We could put up pictures showing healthy lungs vs smokers lungs, but Seung found something 1000x more effective!

Smoking can clog your CPU cooler causing the less than optimal temperatures and poorer game performance!!! :eek:

Sounds pretty much normal for TEST members...

I know the feeling all too well (ex chain smoker 2 packs of 24 sigs a day, over €300 a month)
So stay strong, and think of all the extra ships you can buy with that extra money... i know i did! :)

 

[Montoya]

Choppanob can either smoke, or buy six 890 Jumps every year!

If you ever have any trouble quitting, feel free to pm me for a little suggestion that could help. I'm not posting it here since it's more of a safer alternative than anything, and you guys are doing well so far.

Now i'm curious!
When i started to quit, i tried all the thing i knew, like gum, tablets, bandage, acupuncture, witchcraft and offering a goat to the gods.
Nothing worked... but then i started to go cold turkey, and free of smoking for almost 3 years now.

 

[Snowianth]

Im still stick whit e-cigs, but lowering nicotine over time.... from 24mg to 9mg atm

 

[Krystal LeChuck]

First time I quit I went cold turkey. My late fiance died of brain cancer and it was all the motivation someone couldn't ask for. Besides the traumatic experience, every time I felt the craving for a cigarette I downed a glass of water. That meant I had to go to the toilet every 10mins. Brain then does this weird subconcious association of smoking and running to the toilet. Reduces the cravings. Sounds crazy but it worked in my case.

Unfortunately I came back to Greece and all this depression around me got to me.

Like Snowianth said, I was going to suggest vaping and slowly decreasing nicotine content over time. I know a moderate amount as a vaper, but if you're 3 years smoke free I'd say you don't need my help :D
