Smoking is a nasty habit....................

It's a nasty habit. I agree. So I wouldn't advise anyone to go for it or do it for once just for enjoyment. But having said that I have been smoking for ten years now and I'll continue to do so. I'm not in a mood to quit, right now.

I can't swear to this, but I think my sister has stopped smoking. She's not close to me, but I do believe she's stopped smoking. The last time I saw her was when we went to borrow a game from her, and we didn't stay long. The last time before that was at our wedding, I think she went outside with the smokers but didn't smoke. It is a nasty habit, one I am glad I never got into.

nope and I aint going too!

me!! and my mother did about 30 years ago too. i also have 2 friends who have - one with nicotine patches and one without (although i think he may relapse). it is really difficult though. are you a smoker yourself?

Well true, people dont understand, initially starts as fun or out of stress and later they addict and finally they make the affectioned ones alone. My uncle stopped and he leads a new life now.

i have lots of friends whos moke and sadly no one has ever thought of stopping

Not real recently, but in his late fifties Dad quit after many many years.

Yes it is a nasty habit and a very very powerful one. It ranks right up there with heroin. I smoke and from time to time, I struggle to quit. It is really really hard. Still, I have seen people who do succeed in quitting. Most recently quite a few have been prescribed chantix and I've been told that really works in helping. The ones I really admire are the ones that quit cold turkey. Me...I've tried so many different methods and nothing so far as worked long term. Someday.....maybe?

Yes both my Dad and my boyfriend. My Dad did it cold turkey and succeeded. My boyfriend did it with acuputure and also succeeded. It was hard maybe the first two weeks for both of them but they managed to get thru it. Now they both can't stand the smell of smoke. My boyfriend now understands why I didn't want to kiss him, due to the smell.

I havent smoked for just over a month now and its the best thing that ive ever done! Im so glad as there was absolutely no beneficial side to smoking at all but yet i carried on, my family smokes but they try not to smoke around me but to be honest i hate the smell of it at the moment so it doesnt bring on any cravings, quite the opposite. The best thing ive noticed is that things seem to taste a bit better, now someone said to me this would happen but i didnt realise to what extreme i would notice! Im just so glad i got the support that is so easily got and offered everywhere as it is wonderful being smoke free!

i never smok.. but my friends are still smoking.. i hate people who smoking in public place.

Hi friend, Smoking is very bad for health and for the country as well.It increases the pollution and it tares the ozone layer in the atmosphere.When a person smokes we cannot stand nearby that person.I dunno what is there in smoking and what they will get from smoking?

I'm a sucessful quitter myself. just believe in your self, think of the almighty above' quarantine yourself from your friends that smoke. very hard task but if your determined you will succeed.
