Well sorta
I used to smoke a lot when I was 17 but stopped because after a year of smoking I was sick of it
I recently turned 18 ( In January)
And figured I would roll my own cigarettes because it always seemed cooler to me.
After buying a bag I didn't like the flavor so I bought another with good flavor but it just didn't do anything for me
Since then I haven't smoked and figured it would be better just to not form the addiction again

Stop while you are ahead.
You were never actually addicted, you fucking lucked out especially since you seem to not want to smoke.

The whole "I can stop anytime" thing doesnt last too long, cigarette addiction creeps up very quietly.

Stop while you are ahead.

No I was honesty super addicted
I used to work out in the fields during summer and would blaze though a pack a day and would get head aches if I didn't smoke
But being the addict that I am I over did it and would end up vomiting after the first time vomiting I would hurl with every cigarette
So I had to quit

no, you were honestly not addicted in the slightest.

i've tried accupuncture, accupressure, hypnosis, nicotine replacement gums and patches, i've tried lazer therapy, cold turkey, zyban and just plain old will power. yet here i am replying to you whilst trying to light a ciggie nearly 34 years after i thought "ah i can give this up whenever i want to"

Honestly, maybe OP was addicted, but that doesn't matter. You don't have to play "who was more addicted to tobacco" and see who's cooler.

OP, the important thing to take away from this thread so far is to not get addicted. Sell the bags and don't smoke.

after so many years the smoke just sinks down into your bones. I'm 8 years in and I think I'm screwed.

there is nothing else to do with tobacco except to smoke it. unless you believe in super natural shit, i've heard old folklore that people would leave piles of tobacco on tables and in the corners or rooms

You can make a biodegradeable pesticide.
Put in water.
Filter after 2 hours.
Spray on plants.
Be carefull, thou. Nicotin is easily asborbed throu the skin, so you can poison yourself pretty easyly.
The best use is to give it to a homerless person and brighten his day.

It's actually just a willpower thing.
patches, therapy and nicotine replacements are a small boost that can help or entirely do it for some people.

But if you have smoked for too long, they're not gonna do jack shit. It'll then all be on the individual smoker.

Quitting smoking is hard as fuck. But in the end, it is nothing more than a fight of will power.

I have been a smoker myself. I started smoking around 17 years old, but I wasn't addicted the first years. I remember a period where I smoked two cigarettes a day, and that's all. One day I forgot to buy a pack. And I quit smoking just like that.

Around 20, though, I started smoking more and more, around 6-8 cigarettes a day. I tried to stop smoking, and it was hard as fuck... The pain, the nerves, the addiction... I could just give up and leave in the middle of the night to go to the only place selling cigarettes at such an hour : The crappy train station neighbourhood.

Actually, I never tried any substitute for quitting smoking. I just found any occasion to stop my routine and used my willpower. I stopped entering tobacco-selling stores. I tried to ignore it, or persuaded myself it was a filthy place...

The first week is the worst. You feel bad. Your are angry for anything. You can't enjoy anything because your body feels so tensed. Even sex sucks, because you can't jump on your cigarette just after.
But after a few days, you realise you're just being a jerk, and that your body isn't craving nicotine anymore. The worst thing is meeting smoking friends, going out for a drink, or staying alone at home. All of these are occasion to remind you you should smoke.

The longest period I did without smoking was 6 months two years ago. I resumed smoking because "Hell... Why not. I know how to quit".

Last november, I tried a new method : I quit both cigarette AND coffee the same day.

It was the worst week of my life. The headache was terrible. I couldn't sleep. I was hugely irritable.
I did all of this thinking "If I cannot handle quitting cigarette, I can just resume drinking coffee."

It was the 8 november 2014. I smoked only 2 cigarettes in november. One I took from a friend when leaving her party. The other was a half smoked cigarette I picked up on the ground...

Basically this. Some people have a more addictive personality. Some people have more will power.

Everyone knows at least one person who has quit cold turkey and everyone knows at least one person who has been trying to quit for years.

I used e-cigs to quit twice. Mostly just used them because you could use it anywhere with no scowling prudes or whatever, but eventually they just make me sick and I stop for a few days and since I don't have any actual tobacco on hand it makes it much easier (always have to finish them before the day you quit or else you've "just gotta finish the pack" or whatever).


As far as the uses, pesticide and poison are pretty good uses for it. Also supposedly you can shove tobacco/tea into a wound to stop the bleeding as a temp-patchup kinda thing. IIRC they teach soldiers to pack the wound with tobacco if they've got it because it's a coagulant but I may not be remembering correctly.

If it's just a baggy you'd better hope it would dry out before you need to stuff a wound with it. If you don't have a need to keep insects off plants or poison someone then just either divvy it up into smaller baggies and hand it out or if you're lazy just give all of it to one homeless dude.

If it's in a can/jar you could always just save it for a rainy day. Even though I quit I've got a few unopened cans of the good stuff stashed away for such a thing.

Yeah, you can't quit smoking. I've heard quite a few people with this sentiment and it's always the same - they can't admit they are addicted to something because it would harm their self-image of being totally disciplined.

>> No.769376

Nah, you just dont have any willpower.

Just deal with the fact that as a human beeing you are weak and don't actually want to quit. And if you started smoking 34 years ago, its pointless to quit now, something has to kill you, might as well be cigs.

Nicotine actually does have quite an addictive side, its not just a mental addiction, so the patches do help. Except that after 34 years of doing something you not only are completely mentally and physically addicted to it, your daily routines involve smoking, and you probably have smoking ingrained into muscle memory. Quitting now is harder than qiutting after a few years even, because your whole body is now programmed to smoke.

You could still do it if you had some willpower tough. But you need to use your brain for that and be a man.

I stopped after a large psilocybin dose. Not only did I gain perspective on the fact that I was poisoning myself, the actual taste and smell of the tobacco became repulsive to me. I believe there is both something psychological and physiological that happened to my brain.

There is some decent evidence to support this as well.
