The things we enjoy . . whether they are good for us or not . . . and any of those mentioned above are pleasurable, are hard to break if we agonize on the happiness they give us at the moment . That to me is important . . . as humans we are limited to about 70-80 years and we want happiness and we want it right now . We don't have time to wait for results that might take years to manifest . Nobody farms stalactites or stalagmites for a hobby either . . . . takes too long for them to grow . All vices are fun and enjoyable and immediate . Where's this go? Ya gotta find something else that's more enjoyable, that's where . Ever have a crying baby with a bad attitude or just cranky? Put a cookie (NZ= bisquette or biskit or binky or something else silly) in ONE hand and you don't get much quietude . BUT . . if you put a cookie in BOTH hands, you get instant silence . WHY? Because there's no room for further happiness than two hands full of treats to a baby . Same-o with an adult . . . . fill the void; avoid the problem . I was asked once if I smoked after sex . I said: "I don't know . . . . I never look" . :blush: Oh . . . and by the way . . . I have never had a vice . :blush: |

| 610182 | 2007-11-11 02:11:00 | Well after seeing the other thread mutate into a witchhunt Im hoping this one will stay on track. I noticed there were quite a few who used to smoke but now have stopped. I have stopped smoking for 5 weeks so far, havent really had the urge until the last couple of days. Anyone got any tips or how they stopped or something to fight the urge? TIA I would strongly recommend hypnotherapy..... this person is very good, has helped me with a few things. www.meredithmccarthy.com |

| 610185 | 2008-02-13 22:23:00 | Well Im still smoke free, just wanted to ask if anybody noticed they get sick more often when they stop?? Can't say, as I'm still smoking, but have to say, however weird it may sound, I hardly ever get sick from viruses or whatever. I've noticed this from at least ten years ago - I've had maybe one or two colds, nothing worse. But my ex has been off smokes for over two years now and although she works in a pretty public place she's only stayed home sick for one day. So yeah, I doubt there's any real correlation. |

| 610186 | 2008-02-13 22:30:00 | Yea, just really odd timing I guess. I find running harder, but that maybe to the smoking being replaced with eating hahaha After running about 4 km I get quite buggered. I felt better running as a smoker....have no idea why. |
