I bought a 20 pack of marlboro gold. Smoked 1. I’m not a smoker so I’ll probably give the rest to my brother who smokes. I just wanted a nicotine rush. The cigarette didn’t make me feel as relaxed as I’d hoped. When I had cigarettes in hospital the nicotine rush seemed more intense. Perhaps because I was ill. Oh well. No more cigarettes for me.
I just quit last night

I no longer smoke tobacco, but I smoked between 5-7 cigarettes per day prior to quitting in 2009. I smoked for 2 years or so. Certainly among the stupider things I’ve done.

I went from smoking once in awhile to being an addict. You don’t want that. I quit 3 1/2 years ago. After over 50 years of heavy smoking. No wonder I’m on oxygen.

sometimes I smoke during the winter. I like that it gets me out of the house for a little while instead of sitting inside all day. my days are more enjoyable when I smoke but it’s not healthy so I can’t keep justifying it. need to quit.

I am happy to say I have 21 days without a cigarette. They’re highly addictive. Good on you ChaosBiology that you decided they weren’t for you.

I smoke and really have decided not to quit but cut back. My pdoc completely agrees with that. I’m stressed enough.

I used to smoke quite a bit. Didn’t plan it, just happened to try it from someone and th rest is history. A lot of schizophrenics smoke. It helps with the illness somehow.

Maybe cos anti psychotics block dopamine and nicotine causes an increase in dopamine. Maybe there’s a greater craving than ordinary people.
No I don’t smoke, I have heard it is really addictive for schizophrenics.

Haven’t smoked for over 27 years. I occasionally pop a nicotine patch, but am lucky to go through 10 per month. Used to vape a bit, but found it was crudding up my lungs. I’d wake up with crap in them.

I used to be a heavy smoker, up to 2 packs a day.
I quit smoking cold turkey years ago.
It feels good to be smoke free.

From age 15 to age 23, I smoked. At my heaviest, I smoked two packs per day. I quit when I started nursing school. But, I continued to smoke socially on weekends and I only puffed on them. I didn’t inhale them. I smoked in this manner all the way up to my 48th year then, I quit. My son and I quit together.

someone i am friends with told me to smoke with him and i said in your dream pal. one of his friend told me later he never wants to talk to me again for some reason. maybe not smoking with them contributed to end his friendship with me.
