If i were you, I'd quit the journal because all it does it remind you about cigs, but if it is working for you, then have at it. Quitting is the best thing I've ever done.


this actually makes a lot of sense, and I think I'll try it.

The reason I'm writing this is because I'm curious about those who have quit a habit, and how many weeks it took for them to not want to smoke/dip/etc? Because I realllly miss smoking. I always thought after the first week or so you'd slowly stop thinking about it, and I'm not finding that to be the case


That urge won't go away for most people. It just gets easier to suppress. Keep it up.

Smoked for 24 years. Quit a year and a half ago. I just went cold turkey. Took about 4 to 5 months for me to stop craving one every single day. Now I just crave one every few weeks or so.

I've been quit now for over ten years. It gets easier over time. I used to think about it all the time at first. Now, I don't even think about it. Keep it up dude. Just quitting smoking makes you feel so much better.

I have a friend who quit smoking with lozenges. Of course, he became all self-congratulatory for not smoking. Well, it has been years and years, but he eats the lozenges like candy all day. So be careful and wean off of them asap.

I quit over 10 years ago cold turkey, but every now and then I think about having one. Then I just tell myself, "tough shite, you're not getting it". Do not want to be a slave to that ever again.

Good luck and keep it up!

Yeah, I've heard the same thing too. I definitely plan on switching to the 2mg in a couple weeks and then hopefully quit them for good too.
