Smokers: Do you want to stop?

[Mise]

I smoke, and I tried to quit a couple times, for no real reason other than I felt like I ought to (and as an experiment over whether I could, and whether I'd get that "first few months" feeling back when I started up again). But at the end of the day, I didn't want to quit. I enjoy smoking, and I only smoke 1-2 cigarettes a day, so I feel that I'm in enough control that if I ever felt that I wanted to quit, I could. However, I don't believe I am in control over whether I want to quit

I'm a smoker, I tried to quit a while back and I failed. I'll try again.... someday.

How come you stopped?

Awesome! I've been there. The kid must have been part of the decision eh

The kid is a huge part in my quitting. But it was also to stop the paranoia.
I was getting over-paranoidm, stressing about nothing and everything.

Had any vivid dreams? Everytime I don't smoke pot for a while my dreams are always way more intense. Sometimes I lay off pot for a while just for that.

edit: If it's for the kid, well done, hope you sjhtick with it.

I do have weird dreams now, been having nightmares all weekend long.

Yes i could call my dreams "vivid" to say the least.

I tried to smoke but I didn't see the allure to it.

I tried to smoke but I didn't see the allure to it.

God bless you.

Hrm. I smoke, I know it is bad for me. In the sense that "you know, I should stop inhaling these cancer sticks one of these days", yes I want to quit. In the sense that "man, I love cigarettes", no I do not want to quit.

This is how I feel.

I tried one time when I bet on another forum that I will not smoke for month. I wanted quit completely, bet was only motivation to keep it. I dont trust in all health problems but no smoking is more normal and supported by my girlfriend. I won bet but not quit. I dont understand how it was possible, month of no smoking but every day I had taste on cigarette. I had no problem in morning (I do not smoke in this time), but in evening....horrible, I had to go sleep very soon. I felt without energy and collectedness.
Now in the Czech Republic have raised prices. I know that I have to quit but I want plan it and be prepared better. I have to find more motivations and have to have time.

I don't know how to vote. I'm not really a smoker, but I smoke a cigarette about once a year or so. Considering the last time was a couple months ago, it seems unfair to say I quit. I was smoking a cigar a day for about a month straight five years ago.
