  • Smoking

    I tell people that I have never smoked in my life!!! Liar, liar. I did when I was about 15. I only smoked for about a month and decided it was an incredibly stupid idea. Someone asked me to look after their fag last week and I took a drag on it. How can one stupid month make you still addicted 50 years later?

    I stopped smoking years ago for health and financial reasons (too flipping expensive) and yes there's times I could site and smoke a cig. I missed the one in the morning with mi coffee...still do if I admit it. What I don't miss is being hospitalised because I've contracted another serious chest infection, coughing mi guts up in a morning because I can't breath and laying in bed listening to my chest wheeze...Yup the benefits out way that missed cig.

          I quit nearly ten years ago and still get cravings. Oddly enough the smell of fag smoke on other people makes me want to chuck

            I smoked when I was too young 10 woodbines out of the machine on the wall by the post office My middle sister found out ( 4 years older than me ) and threatned to tell mum if I didnt give her a fag , my 10 lasted me a fortnight till then. I stopped smoking and have never even wanted to smoke, the smell urgh. My sister smoked all her life.

              I used to smoke 60 a day when I had a high pressure job, but stopped on 9th April 1997. I have to be honest and say sometimes I dream of smoking and wake up wanting a fag!! When I was pregnant the last time, I craved the smell of cigarette smoke!

              However I know how addictive it is, so wouldnt give in to my own weakness!

                Never had a cigarette between my lips. Well into my 40's and never smoked, ever.

                      I am trying to give up again today. Started a few years ago after quite a while of not smoking.
                      I have a tight chest, out of breath and not enjoying my food as much, feel s@@t in the mornings, low energy!

                      Not to mention the cost.

                        Nope, never smoked. Apart from the odd naughty ones during a rebellious streak, usually at concerts/festivals, but I'm a non-smoker.

                        Question is; how do I get my OH to give up!!!?

                            What not being allowed to go to the footie, that sort of thing?

                            Only one who can make your OH stop is them, got to want to (and even then not easy)...

                              Is there anything else??

                              Agree with you though Manda, like any addiction, you have to want to stop yourself, otherwise it wont happen.
