  Is it better to quit smoking or be an occasional smoker? Surely a handful of ciggs a day wont kill you?

  I have already smoked for more than a year.. sometimes on and off. Sometimes a few sticks, sometimes more than a pack. The most was one and half pack a day. I can still control my smoking to less than a pack per day if I want to.

   

  I think this expensive and harmful habit must be killed eventually, but I am still young (21) and if I quit at 30, I read that there will be no harmful effects? But I know it is better to quit now because if I make it a habit it will be difficult to stop.

   

  But smoking a cigarette is a little pleasure in life, increases alertness and helps pass the time when you are idle. So it is a very difficult decision for me, to smoke occasionally or to stop completely.

  I have decided to quit smoking cigarettes. May Chris Benoit in heaven help me.

   

  Now is about 6.25 pm, 4th April 2009. May the great and mighty Chris Benoit who watches from heaven give me strength and determination to help me quit smoking for good!

  by the time you reach the 2nd week of cold turket or thereabouts, the ability to say "no" to a cigarette is much stronger than before

  It is still bad to smoke leh. They say only after 10 years of non-smoking will your health return to normal.

   

  Also after 2 days of non-smoking your sense of smell and taste improves.

   

  So must quit!

  35 hours without smoking, it wasnt easy.

  Especially when I have lots of free time now, if I dont occupy myself my mind will start to wander.

  Actually I used to be a social smoker, but ended up smoking more deeply for the "kick". Also due to work stress and a steady flow of income, I could afford to smoke and find excuse for smoking. Then found it harder to quit / control smoking, so now I fought for 3 days, 3 days never lit a ciggie le.

   

  These few days not easy for me, but I believe it will get easier from now on.

  A handful of ciggs a day will balloon to an enormous amount in months to come.
