Stop Smoking?

@Palladin: I agree with you. But the reality is that Nicotine acts as a psych drug.

Why stop smoking? For the main reason that it can damage your body that can lead to a serious illness. It can cause death.

 

I replaced smoking with vaping for the last 5 years, no regrets so far

 

you have not stopped your addiction to nicotine, but changed the method in which you receive it

 

i quit smoking every 90 minutes and then i again smoke another one. if i dont smoke, my lungs will not get carbon monoxide and i will die of lead and sulphur and various other industrial and construction related suspended particles in air aka atmosphere (fresh air pollution). so thanks for the motivation and i will quit smoking every 91 minutes from now on.
i just got loaded with 19 pages of bizzare motivation.

 

That's a good start! At least you are willing to quit.

 

In Nov it'll be 3 years that I've quit smoking. My health was taking a hit pretty bad so I went cold turkey. Tobacco is the hardest drug to kick IMO.

It's not easy to quit smoking as I learned before. I didn't last 3 years I tried before. This time I meant to and I will. I want to smoke all the time it never stops. The only way to win is to never take another puff ever. No such thing as "just once". Doesn't work that way.

I'll tell you that benefits for stopping smoking is tremendous and you'll wonder why the heck you were smoking.

 

I'm smoking for 15 years. I tried to give up smoking for many times!!! And than I understood. I like to smoke with a cup of coffee. And I can't live without this tradition. I have give up not only cigarettes, but coffee too)) But I have some advices how to smoke not so much: https://smokefree.gov/quit-smoking/getting-started/steps-to-manage-quit-day Also I can advice you to drink milk. It cleans our lungs. Also you need to eat more fruits which contains vitamine C

 

Drinking milk cleans your lungs? Interesting.

 

What's the general opinion on vaping?

 

You are still a drug addict, and what was said a few message back....
"You have not stopped your addiction to nicotine, but changed the method in which you receive it."

But on the bright side your clothes don't don't stink as much as when you smoke cigarettes.

.

 

But still bad for your health.

 

I've heard that vaping contains chemicals that may have negative effects on your body too

 

Look up popcorn lungs.

 

Will power is the best

i'm cyclist.

I also don't smoke. Its not type of fashion. It is injurious to health.
