Cigarettes

[Daytripper]

Smoked for 20 years from age 14-34. I was on 2 packs a day by the end, 3 packs if I was drinking. I was about to get married and a mate died. It made me think about my choices so I just gave up. It wasn't easy, I'd failed loads of times before, but I did it cold turkey. 12 years now and it's the best thing I ever did. I cut down on my drinking after that as drinking without smoking was never as good. I haven't drank in 4 years now.

Literally everything in my life is better without smoking. My health is better, my family aren't subjected to my poison, travelling is much more fun, work is much less stressful... I could go on.

I know very few smokers these days. Most have given up.

Well done mate

I stopped about twenty years ago but still miss it at times. Some of the old rolling tobaccos could be very tasty.
And the old tobacconist shops were full of character.
Glad I stopped though!

Government let's you kill yourself slowly for tax money. You're living a badly written sci-fi plot.

I don't think anyone argues that vaping isn't bad for you. It's just that all available evidence suggests it's numerous degrees less bad than smoking tobacco.

In that case vapers may only end up numerous degrees less dead than tobacco smokers.

Might give quitting attempt number 653 a go soon. As well as the obvious health stuff, i think we pay the highest in the world for them over here reckon I'm now spending up around $250 a week on them.

Don't know how people afford them - just checked the cost of lambert & butler. £12.65? A pack a day is £379 a month.
