Also, fuck you.

Well it certainly sounds like you're working on quitting.

I used to, now when I try even socially, I don't enjoy it really at all.

I have friends who, when they go over to Holland, they smoke 'socially' cause others do.

My dad and dad in law smoked for half their lives, but quit and lived into their late 80s.

You have to quit, you have no choice. So get er done.

Bumming cigarettes was how I successfully quit. Said I'd stop buying them, and "Gave myself permission" to beg for them as much as I wanted. I think I had 1 and was so disgusted with myself that that was it. I think it's about 8 or 9 years now.

Keep at it ya faggot.

Not buying cigarettes is a good first step.

Good start. Cold turkey simply isn't right for the body, especially if you've been consuming the addictive chemical for a long time. Best to slowly reduce your intake of the substance to allow your body chemistry to get closer to "normal" again. You didn't mention your smoking habits, but even if you smoked 1/2 a pack a day and went to "two in the last month", that's a huge step, good for you. Hang in there.

Chew gum. This can help more than you might think. This can also help prevent the weight gain that often accompanies smoking cessation (people tend to replace nicotine with food, so instead of smoking a cig they have a snack, and you can guess where that leads).

Yeah do the body building now https://youtu.be/IjP89xahSIM?t=1076

I always think about it, sometimes it even disgusts me.

This was no ordinary cold and I'm never ill. Like, not once in the last decade. Normal colds are like 5-7 days. 10 max. This was 15-18 days of more phlegm spewing body aching misery I've ever encountered. I've never been sick like this. I don't know what it was, but it wasn't normal.
