I prefer to think of myself as a 'non-practising' smoker. I have been able to exert the necessary willpower to be able to quit, unless I'm in an extremely stressful situation. During periods of high stress, I allow for a maximum of eight (8) king-size 'cancer sticks' per day. Upon relief of said stress, I avoid most people for a seventy-two (72) hour period, thereby easing the transition between 'practising' and 'non-practising' modes. This three (3) day period is required to defeat the physical cravings of an unassisted cold turkey quit. After that, the cravings are purely psychological, and easily overcome by staying occupied.
If you are quitting, good luck in your courageous venture! By the way, cold turkey is by far the hardest, and most effective, method of quitting.

There are lots of smokers out there, stay away from them, they smell. They have the power to make your hair and clothes reek.

I gave it up 2 months ago. I used the nicotine inhaler for about a week. After that, I was fine.

I litereally just quit smoking cigarettes. I started smoking pot recently. It's kind of tacky, but it's better than snorting cocaine.
