buzzin its august 15th, and im still tobacco free, i started on july 2nd, and havent had any cigs since. i havent even bothered putting a patch on since last saturday. I feel gr8, and i notice now how much cigs stink, sum1 sparked up on the bus 2 days ago, and it was vile. also, i was approached by 2 young lads in town the other day, and they asked me, "" av u got a spare cig plz m8" and i answered, "" no, i dont smoke"", it felt good, and i have saved a fortune in this lat few weeks, its brilliant, when i failed in the attempt i 1st made in this thread i was quite despondant about it, but i got a kick up the ass from sum1 i luv very much, seeing the way she coughs, it made me not wanna be there. as i mentioned previously, i dont wanna be like my dad, coz i know it would be almost impossible for him to quit now, he enjoys smokin, that is the worst part, to think that i actually used to enjoy doing something so rotten to myself, admittedly, i still smoke joints, but they have no tobbacco in of any kind, ony weed, so its not so bad, and when i have saved enough, i am going to buy a volcano. i want to say to BOG

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, for spurring me on in this way to save myself. i am so glad i found this site, and cant wait to sort out my subscription, but i am glad for the reason that i found this forum, which gave me, the different viewpoint to see how i could change. now my breath is better, my hair dont stink, and my fingers are not yellow, thanks bog.:)

What most smokers don't realize?

What most smokers don't realize?

Harry, my heart is filled by your thanks. :) You did it for yourself man. I didn't do shit. Want your seeds now? You sound so confident this time that I am too. ;)

The other day I noticed a guy on his scooter spitting a wad of tobacco juice at a stoplight. I realized that many smokers take a chew when they can't smoke but I wondered why they don't just have some patches handy?

They fill the need and they don't taste like crap. No spitting necessary and you can keep one in your wallet just in case. Even when they aren't needed it is good to know a method for dealing with tobacco addiction is handy and effective.

The truth is hard to take but here it is. Tobacco isn't that hard to quit for a finite amount of time but recivitism with tobacco addiction is the worst part. :( The fact is that when people try and fail they often just quit trying to quit. Nobody likes to fail.

In Harry's case he is probably a man of pride who couldn't deal with failure. Some men have this quality and given just a little help people of worth can quit tobacco. Harry is a man of worth as evidenced by his wonderful posts all over this site. I have gained respect for you sir and someday we shall meet and celebrate the fact that we can be happy without tobacco. BOG

its rough though... when there is a drought... tobacco lessens the hardships... also helps me conserve the lil i have... but damn I do try... I really do... its just a lil difficult to stay focused when it comes to tobacco...
Blunts are my Fav. also... that doesnt help...

Tobacco Addiction DENIAL

Tobacco Addiction DENIAL

I have met people in Europe who use tobacco with their hash and some even claim that they aren't addicted to the tobacco but just use it as filler or some shit like that. I know the two combine well as when I smoked tobacco I always followed a joint with a cigarette. Sorta thinking I was making the most of the weed but that was just a BS rationalization. :(

The truth is that shortly after you stop ingesting tobacco smoke you start absorbing the thc more efficiently and you get higher in fact. Put that in your pipe and smoke it my Friendly Friend. BOG :)

Much Love to all victims of tobacco and to those victorious over it I Salute. :p

I just thought I'd drop in with an update on my progress. It's August 19th, and I haven't had a smoke since June 1st. It was really easier than I thought it would be. I just had to be honest with myself that I wanted to quit, not just have that little nagging in the back of my head that I should quit. I had to want it, and I think that was the key. Anymore it's hard to remember that I was a smoker, it seems like that was almost a different me.


Anyway, to all those people out there that are trying and having a hard time - remember you can do it. Just like the little engine that could ;)

i found A SUBSTITUE FOR BLUNT WRAPS TOO, INSTEAD OF THESE, MADE FROM BACCY, USE SOME LICOURICE CIGARRETTE PAPERS STUCK TOGETHER, TASTES SIMILAR TO A BLUNT, WITH A DIFFERENT FLAVOUR
 
good on ya!

good on ya!

I smoked cigarettes from 12 to 27, ive been clean nearly a year now.
Not going back either, just watched a family member die of cancer from smoking. Not pleasant at all.

Its the best thing ive ever done for myself.
I highly recomend it.

Hey BOG,

Great thread , Ive smoked for about 26 years and always said I wished I could quit! Well its been 3 weeks without a smoke now and what made me quit was listening to my mother try to breathe as she would light up another one. So far all my family has died from smoking related sickness. Well sometime back Ive read a post of yours about how pot curbs the cravings well BOG as I am constantly craving I am constantly smoking the BOGBUBBLE I grew a bit ago This is a real nice smoke and a craving ridder if there is a such thing teehee. I am having a hard time with the cravings but would like to be around for my children and grandchildren someones gotta teach them to grow lol.




Thanks for listening----KIM

P.S. Quitting smoking is the hardest thing I have ever done and if you can do it more power to ya and if you cant keep trying it took me about 100 times and its been 3 long weeks now but Im doing It for my kids and family. So do it for the ones you love or the ones you hate cause if you quit you can stick around a little longer to aggravate them teehee Just my 2 cents:D

what the hell free BOG seeds if I quit smoking!!!

oh wait... I quit smoking Ciggs over 10yrs ago...back when I had good connections for Killer outdoor KY skunk bud

...but for free BOG seeds I may start back up for a wk or 2 then quit again lol


I found it pretty easy to quit Ciggs
I had alot of killer smoke always loaded up in a dugout, with one of those Cigg looking Bat's

everytime I craved a Cigg. I took a one hit or 2
...and the Cigg bat in my hand helped keep Ciggs out of it

since alot of my Cigg addiction was just to keep my hands busy

after 2 wks or so and a good OZ or so, my Cigg cravings all but stopped

and I do believe the Cigg shaped and looking bat helped out alot, for its shape and feel in my hands

I know how hard it is Kim

I know how hard it is Kim

What can I do to help? Lifesaver and Sour Bubble seem to be great for addictions and Bogbubble is where Sour Bubble cometh from. ;) She was always my medicine since I met her. When you can get my new Sour Bubble do so because the clone the seeds are made from is very very special. It has a quality that is extremly satisfying when you crave tobacco especially. Yes, I have found this to be true. In a very personal way that I am very ashamed to admit. I had a recent fall back but it didnt last long.

Do quit and never quit quitting no matter what. BOG :)

I am clean today and that's all any of us can say really...

We are only human... :alien:

happy to hear your all making big changes

happy to hear your all making big changes

As of last september I had seen the light, A pack of day or more for another couple years and Id be put in the ground in no time:mad: :mad: . I have honestly felt alot different since I stopped smoking, I can tell the arsenic and other chems in there have had a horrid affect on my whole entire body in general, my mood and my energy and just overall vibes. I honestly wish the tobacco companies would be man enough to put there ingredients on the packs and stand by it (clorox,amonia and too many other chemicals to name) All I know is the secret to quitting cigarettes is easy, Increase your uptake of ganja and smoke ganja whenever you would normally smoke a cigarette. This has worked for me and I still havent had a craving since the month or so after sept 03'..... All I know is ganja is the natural cure for quitting ciggarettes and of course a strong mind with the want to quit tobacco.......... Happy to hear everybody is getting off the "fags" :p

Thanks BOG

Thanks BOG

Hey BOG you asked what you could do to help well you could send some sour bubble my way ssshhh I wont tell anyone lol. Its been 23 days now my cravings are getting a little easier to cope with but I still get cravings hourly. I also used the patch and gum and its still hard but I will beat it this time. Smokes here are 9bucks a pack so ya gotta look at it like you pay alot of money to kill yourself haha. Anyways BOG thanks and I will Kick this addiction one day at a time.I find if you keep yourself a bit more busy you forget about the cravings.I spend more time in the garden and they tell me they are happy that I quit too,everyone benifits from it haha


Thanks KIM

By buying the patches and gum your only supporting the tobacco companies in another way and thats not a great way to quit by paying the people who want you to be addicted.......... The only way to do it is to go cold turkey, FLAT OUT COLD TURKEY. No gums, no patches, no nothing......... just water,organic food and ganja and a nice clear state of mind. I wish ya luck and hope you have the strength to quit kim but after the first month its a peice of cake im tellin ya, take care
