| | | Posted by _liss_ Have you looked into Chantix? Everyone that I know that has taken it has good success with it. I am about to set up a doctors appointment to get some myself. I wish you the best of luck and don't think I could ever quit without any help, or at least a padded cell.
| I haven't seen it help people much. It kills a lot of things, including passion, motivation, happiness, dehydrates you terribly, makes you wicked unhappy, etc. Cold turkey is the best route to go if you can. Mad props, Ophie.

I had a buddy who used it. Said it worked great. IT supposedly makes you not even want to smoke. And if for some reason you do, you can't even finish the thing. Keep it up however you do it.
| I heard the same. After a few days you don't even have the urge to smoke. I guess you still have a little moodiness and irritability. I think it would be much worse without the drug. I'm so addicted and smoke like a pack and a half a day. I'm one of those terrible smokers that has to have one everywhere at the most inconvenient times. I have panic attacks when I run low on cigarettes in the middle of the night. All of us smokers should band together and quit. I have such lack of motivation. Even the commercials with the guy with the hole in his throat don't phase me. Oh gee not to mention its well over $6 a pack by me. Even more in lower NY.

| | | Posted by Samurai my only addiction is Mountain Dew (which is probably just as bad!) |
I've quit pop/caffeine several times. I quit a few months ago, because I had a week of no work/no school. The withdrawal headaches I get are worse than my migraines, which send me to the hospital. So... It was an awful week. The other person who lives with me loves Mt. Dew. I really don't like the taste. But anyway... I quit and then I kept drinking pop, because it was there. I finally had to ask him to start leaving his pop at work or something. Because I really... REALLY can't stop myself from drinking it, if it is available to me. I now understand how strong of a self-control issue this is for some people. I never understood it, before. ... I'd been *clean* for a few months, and then this week ...he bought a whole 24-pack of Mt. Dew. I tried SO HARD and I just couldn't do it. Ran out last night. I was doing 2 cans a day, probably. Today I have had a HORRIBLE headache. At work, though... I still stuck to my normal leomonade. No tea, no coffee, no pop. I'm very proud of that but... Christ... I'm dead fucking serious when I talk about this. It is a total mindfuck to me --- I just don't get it --- I have virtually zero nicotine receptors in my brain and I am physically incapable of developing an addiction to it (seriously, I would have). However, nicotine/caffeine receptors operate similarly: if you're addicted to one, you're more likely to be addicted to the other. I SHOULD be predisposed to be addicted to BOTH or NEITHER, and not just one. (God I am such a nerd.) That, and I still am still coping with the fact that I have "an addiction," for real, even if it isn't a drug people go to rehab or jail for... tell me cigarettes shouldn't be illegal and I'll kick you in the nutbag. |
I'm really glad they nominated you to run this board. ;)

| | | Posted by Samurai the past couple of days, i have tried to really cut back on how much soda I drink, primarily Mountain Dew and the headaches I have been waking up with have been absolutely exquisite... did you get the sweats when you quit soda? I get them with the headaches. Anyways, I went back to it. I'd rather be chubby than have headaches.
|
I got excruciating headaches, the sweats, and I had tremors. Some people get familial tremors when they drink caffeine (totally normal), which is when part of you just vibrates uncontrollably while it is otherwise relaxed. ... I had withdrawal tremors, had horrible headaches which I tried to sleep off, and woke up hot and sweaty (and not in a good way). I would never, EVER try to quit ANYTHING without a week that I could kill and basically lay in bed and sleep all day, every day, and have no consequences. it's where i work. we're very blunt there. it carries over.

No need to explain. I just thought it was funny
