Smoking Addiction & Recovery Support Group
The CDC claims that nicotine is a "very addictive drug" that can be "as addictive as heroin or cocaine." Nicotine is typically eliminated from the body within 2 to 3 days, however, physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms may last for much longer depending on the individual. If you are trying to kick the habit, this community is dedicated to giving smokers the...
I'LL TELL YOU. FOREVER. PEOPLE HAVE QUIT FOR YEARS AND THEN RESTARTED. IT IS SOMETHING THAT WILL REMAIN WITH YOU FOR THE REST OF YOUR DAYS. IS THAT A REASON NOT TO QUIT? ABSOLUTELY NOT! THAT WOULD BE A COP OUT. THE SITUATION SUCKS. PICKING UP THE HABIT WAS THE MOST REGRETFUL ACTION OF MY LIFE, AND THERE HAVE BEEN MANY REGRETS, BUT NONE AS DEVASTATING AS SMOKING.
IT IS THE MOST INSIDIOUS DRUG OUT THERE. MORE SO THAN HEROIN. WHY? BECAUSE IT IS LEGAL AND EASILY OBTAINABLE....AND DEADLY.
STOP NOW...THIS MINUTE. NOTHING WILL MAKE YOU PROUDER. NOTHING WILL AFFECT YOUR HEALTH IN A MORE PROFOUND WAY. RUE THE DAY YOU EVER STARTED, THEN STOP. EASIER SAID THAN DONE? YOU BET! IT WILL TAKE EVERYTHING YOU'VE GOT. GET HELP. I USED ZYBAN. NOW THERE IS CHANTIX. WHATEVER WORKS FOR YOU.
EVERYONE HAS THE POWER. DON'T EVER THINK THAT THERE IS EVEN ONE JUSTIFIABLE REASON TO CONTINUE. STRESS? YOU'RE TALKING TO THE WRONG PERSON!
I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST SUCCESS! YOU CAN ACHIEVE SUCCESS!
JUST DO IT!!!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Nicotine creates the strongest addiction known. Not just because it's readily available, but for the physiological changes it causes. Lab mice addicted to opiates and nicotine have starved/dehydrated to death pressing the nicotine lever to the exclusion of the opiate, food, and water levers. The nicotine addiction overrode even the survival instincts. Thank God we aren't lab mice. :)
