Frenchieboy Posted November 19, 2009 Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) is it worth givin up??? BB 25g =4 days DEFINITELY YES! I gave up nearly 4 weeks ago after smoking between 40 and 50 a day and realising that I was slowly killing myself! I feel so much better both physically and mentally and I am much better off financially. I don't know you from Adam but please give quitting smoking a try, if not for yourself for your family and friends. If you want any help, advice or information please do not hesitate in sending me a PM! Edit: If you want to know more have a look at: http://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/ind...howtopic=104841 You will be surprised how many others are either giving up or trying to give up smoking!

benelli montefeltro Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 im trying, will be 3 weeks this friday. i have to admit, i am one of the grumpy quitters though, i fret over the slightest things. i know i must quit, i just do not know if i can do it. also i dont feel that much different physically, altho i only went thru maybe 15 to 18 cigs a day. i quit because of the price of the damn things! good luck to all trying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2bangs Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 Well done keep up the good work, I quit over 5 years ago and was on around 20 to 30+ rollies a day, Ifeel loads better now and my clothes no longer stink, I tried all sorts of different methods to do it but the only thing that worked was just going cold turkey, hard work but worth it, good luck.
