Because they want to do something new and risky.....Why the hell don't they jump off an airplain with a parachute if they want to do that instead they do something that will kill them for sure.

So, i started smoke year ago, when i was living with smoking people. We leartn to much math and when we was overlearned (<-- is there word like this in eng?) i went with them to smoke. It was time when we drank too much alcohol, we smoke not only gauge and our life was very colorfull :p
I read then Virginia Woolf books and Anais Nin diaries, i read Chandlers detective stories (with Marlowe, who of course smoked too much too), i disguise myself as an animals like cat or crowe, or i was wearing strange art noveau clothes. I was going on strange parties where everyone smoked.
This is the way.
Now i'm sick of it all, i want to be clear, because last half of year was horrible, i couldn't sleep, i couldn't breath, my mind played with me (i was seeing strange, unreal things like dead people Razz). I was scared that i'm crazy, but i'm not and it was scaring too Smile
I'll try to quit, but it isn't simple.
I like taste of cigarettes, i like way i look when i smoke.
But i'll try Smile

I hate smoking and don't really see the reason to take it up. Sure it might have looked cool 30 years ago but now?

I tried smoking for a while..
Now a word to those who want to quit:

Everything you've ever heard about quitting smoking.. times it by 10.

I hate onions so bad. Whenever I get the slightest taste of onion on my food, I gag. I really can't help it. So to stop me from smoking, I went to lengths of actually eating an onion everytime I wanted a smoke (Yes.. I did get this off Mel Gibson). I only barely got through.

Also the humps get bigger and worse. First its the 3 day hump. Once you get over 3 days you can be alright.. for the next 3 hours. Then you start getting really angry and irritable. I actually found I was putting my hand in my back pocket looking for the box whenever I got pissed off or stressed (which happens more frequently during the first 3 months).

You start seeing the Lung Cancer ads on TV (dunno about the rest of the world, but in Australia we get them all the time - really graphic too) and thinking, "ohhh damn he looks like he's enjoying that mmm". And just like that you start craving even more. The slightest hint of ciggarette smoke in the air sets you off too. I hated the smell also, but I dunno what was about it that smelled so sweet..

After about 6 months of not smoking, you actually don't miss them anymore. This is the worst part. Sure enough earlier on anything triggers you off and makes you want to light up.. now its harder to get you craving - but the more you want it. Anyway 6 months down, you pretty much forget about it for a while (well I did kinda) but oh man! Family gets together - the brothers/sisters/parents whatever the fuck are just at you all the time. Its hot, you're fed up with them all and there's no where you can go because its too expensive for petrol anymore. Whats the easy solution? You guessed it. I found myself laying down daydreaming how good it would be to just light up and make all the bat shit go away. And they get worse.. and worse.. and worse.. Until eventaully you find the beer in the fridge and try to substite it with that. Sure it works, not nearly as good but.

---------

This was how I felt (in breif) while quitting ciggarettes. I've been told people go through hundreds of different symtoms during the process.
It took me a year and a half before I refused to put one in my mouth - and I will never regret it. Like someone already mentioned earlier, it was the best thing I have ever done.

So Good Luck if you're thinking of quitting.

Ewwwww.....smoking is horrible! How you could possibly do something that you know you WILL die from eventually? It's slow-motion suicide...
