I used to smoke for about 10 years and then quit on December 31 in 2001 after many fruitless attepmts. Haven't smoked a cigarette ever since or even thought about one.
What about you, EU? I take it you are an ardent non-smoker?

Hi Torsten,

Congratulations! Not many people quit smoking just like that! How did you do it?

Yes, you are correct about me: I am an ardent non-smoker. How did you guess?

All the best

Hi Englishuser,

You demonstrate a great level of self-discipline which at times borders stubbornness. A person like you is not very likely to fall prey to an evil vice like smoking.

As for I how managed to quit, I took me a couple of years to get that point. I read some interesting information on a website run by a guy named Fred Kelly and that helped me quite a lot.

I started smoking at 16 and, by the age of 20, had become a fairly heavy smoker (about a packet a day). Somehow, I managed to stop during pregnancies and finally gave up cigarettes at 34, after several unsuccessful attempts.

Now I still enjoy the occasional draw on a narghile.

I think the idea for light a cigarette comes from absence of any other free time activities.I smoke a few times but it doesn't make me an addict and still,i can't undestand why smoking result in addiction.I try nargille a few times but somehow it cause a little vertigo Smile)

When i was in high school i tried a cigarrete. I remember i didn't need to go to school that day and i stay home along, i lit a cigarrete for myself thinking of my parents would be back home any time so I throw it away after 3-5 minutes. Opened all the windows being careful not to leave any traces. I often noticed that Smoke started some people coughing when they tried the first ciggrrete in movies, but i felt it wasnot so difficult.

Hello,

I don't care for smoking. It damages the skin and accelerates aging process. It will make my rigorous skin care regime pointless. Not to mention very bad for the lungs.

Hello,
What can you get from smoking? Don't know why we "wasted" a huge amount of money on it .......
Do you want to quit smoking? Any good advice? Smile
