I successfully left smoking - Adolfi - Jan 27, 2020

Hey guys, I had been smoking regularly from 2 years and on and off from 10 years. On 1st Jan i decided to leave it.
It has been 26 days now since 2nd jan. I quit smoking. Now I feel great stamina as i am a badminton player.


I hope to adopt good habits further in life.

Indeed I lost all my stamina, I used to feel very tired and sleepy all the time.

That’s what I need to do, fuck the cigarettes off and just cut down on the weed it will make a massive difference

takes a lot of willpower, have you noticed any negative effects?
I know certain people get more aggressive and stressed.

That's true, I am more aggressive now, I get irritated easily. My girlfriend is just sick of me, I shout on her on small small things. My behavior has changed completely and I am taking more stress now.

Well, I use to spend around $20-$30 per day. So I saved around $700-800 till now. and It is less about money and more about my health.

yeah it's a tough call, run the risk of hurting the ones around you or shave a couple years off your lifespan.

Been through a similar situation with a roommate, noticed him constantly shaking/nervous all the time, one day it got out of control broke the door, some furniture, and got himself hurt pretty bad over a small argument.

I would focus on that though, ways of calming yourself down and dealing with stress.

Any tips on how to do it? I thought on swapping to vape.


RE: I successfully left smoking - hot.drop - Jan 27, 2020

I currently smoke as well I really want to stop, did you just stop or was there anything you did to get you to stop?


RE: I successfully left smoking - Citoa - Jan 27, 2020

I am also thinking of stopping smoking, but I think I am in love with the ritual and socialising aspect that it carries and not with the nicotine. When I think of smoking I think of how easier it is to start talking with another fellow smoker.
I also like to have a cigarette when I am alone, at night and thinking about something. It just helps me think.
Or it can also give me a break from thinking. After I have studied for 1-2 hours I take a smoke break for 5 minutes and clear my head.

So that is why I like smoking. It will be very hard for me to stop but I am trying.
