Zipperfish Zipperfish:
Part of the problem is people going on about how hard it is to quit. In fact, millions upon millions of people have quit, without any professonal help whatsoever, every year. The whole addiction thing--the entire scientific field of "addiction" is an illusion. The addiction to cigarettes lasts about three days. After that, it's habit.

... fantastic posts in this thread -- a smart bunch on the CKA forums!

... Zipperfish, based on my own personal observation i agree with your assessment ...

... i spent some time in jail in british columbia in 2001 and it was right when the bc government was banning the smoking of cigarettes in the jails. although i wasn't a smoker, many of my fellow inmates were and there was some anxiety amongst them leading up to the cut-off day. however, once smoking actually was prohibited all of the smokers adjusted quickly without any fanfare. they toughed it out and it really wasn't a big deal for them ...

... however, i do recall that nicotine patches were made available to the smokers which may have helped to alleviate the withdrawal ...

Brenda, there's a list of things about you that'd scare Charles Manson sh*tless.

Of course, I consider those your better qualities. :wink:

Take a hint from Australia. Plain brown packs, all the same like stubbies were for beer.
12 point type "Export A Red".
And put the nicotine content back on the pack! I don't fucking care if "lights" are just as fucking unhealthy as regular. The first goddam thing you wanna do to quit is reduce your nicotine intake FFS!

... great post! makes sense! very logical! :lol:
