			Good for you! I had the same smoking routine the 1st 25 years of smoking, not every day or a pack....After 38 years it had become a pack a day . Now after countless times trying, this is hopefully be the last time I quit.  It has been the hardest thing I have done....Raising a kid is a close 2nd

			Hello all, Starbuck here.  I just quit 4 days ago, the first two were cold turkey.  But I've since adopted nicotine patches, and let me say how excited I am that they work for me!  Now if I could kick the weed habit too, I'd be all good.

			Go you Starbuck. One addiction at a time huh. Get yourself a bong or nice pipe for smoking weed without tobacco for the time being.  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	I'm glad the patches work for you. You'll still need plenty of willpower though. Just remember there are no reasons to start smoking again, just excuses. Holler if you need support. When I gave up I found it helpful to post about it pretty much daily (on another website), it was useful to write about it and what worked for me, what didn't and how I felt. Good Luck Starbuck. Dig those heels in!  |

			I'm gritting my teeth because I want a cigarette right now.  It's not time to change my patch yet but maybe that would help, weed didn't

			Course!  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	For a few days/weeks the weed won't work like it used to. Half of the high was to do with tobacco and it's other poisons. Yanno, I really craved a joint today...I'm not gonna do it but I always aknowledge when I want to. No point denying the craving. Acknowledge and move on!! You can do it!..dig 'em in!!  |
