Non-smokers are just sooooooooooo boring.:D

I gave up for 2 very long years, people claim that it gets easier, it didn't for me, every morning I could have enjoyed, (yes, ENJOYED), a fag.

Then one day I thought sod this why am I beating myself up? bought a packet, Ahhh, the relief!

Yes I'm addicted but I don't steal from other people to feed my addiction and I'm happy to say I didn't turn into an intolerant ex-smoker during that long period of cold turkey.

So you none smokers now have the inside of the pubs, don't you dare come outside on a sunny day complaining about us smokers in the garden, it's ours we've been out here all winter so bog off!

Re: Carry On Smoking.
 
I have smoked for 50 years, so the habit is well established.
I do not recommend it, and will never encourage it.

Two years ago I gave up for 8 months but never lost the craving.
I exhausted myself by keeping continuously active to avoid thinking about them.

Last year I had a bad attack of rhinitis, brought on by air fresheners, which led me to research inhaled irritants. As well as eliminating man made chemicals from my environment, I switched to smoking pure tobacco(rollups).

I am convinced that cigarette manufacturers add addictive chemicals to tobacco, because even though I was getting a 'nicotine fix', I still craved manufactured ciggies. The conversion to smoking only the natural leaf has enabled me to halve the number smoked and I no longer have nasal/sinus problems.

What sort of an excuse is that? :rolleyes:

If you smoke for medical reasons.....Cashy might not give you a Membership Card :D

I am not making excuses - none are appropriate :confused: -I enjoy it in the same way that chocoholics enjoy chocolate, and shopoholics enjoy shopping.

Everyone of us places our health in hazard in some way (including you)
I defend our right to do that in a way we feel comfortable doing, as long as we are aware of the risks and cause no harm to others, I don't regard it as a problem.
