A guy I do business with quit cold turkey. Said it was not a problem. All it took was looking at the ones he loved. He knew if he kept going cancer, lung problems etc would diminish his ability later in life. He wants to be able to enjoy everything to the fullest.
He finished his pack and said that was it. He has not touched on cigarette yet.

I just did, fatty.


In my experience, bullshit "support" and hand-holding only makes quitting worse. The only way to do it is to stare in the mirror and tell yourself you are a weak failure if you cannot quit. Not saying you aren't doing all this, but having a support structure to fall back on is dangerous, IMO.

Also, do you really think you can afford the inevitable weight gain, tons of fun?

there are two sides to the addiction. 1st there is the psychological dependence - i.e. smokgin out of habit or in certain situations. I thiink I can definitely beat that. Then there is the physical dependence. Thats what has me worried. The withdrawal symptoms which leave you really really craving that nicotine.

I have taken appropriate precautions and I think Im going to be ok. BTW, there have been studies which have shown that for some reason, men are more successful at quitting cold turkey than females.
