Quitting is Contagious

[gah]

I've been 6 months without a cigarette! 

I also have gone 4 days without nicotine.  I was rocking those 2mg Nicotine mints.  Now I'm using Altoids. 

:banana:

You can smoke altoids? that's way cheaper than cigarettes!

Definitely way cheaper than cigarettes.  I'm also quickly collecting a lot of nice nugget tins.   :mrgreen:

My beef with keeping weed in altoid tins is that it ends up tasting like you're smoking altoids, and confusion abounds

This is only initially. After you've had them for awhile, it smells nothing like altoids. As would be expected. I have this one altoids tin that's just got this classic retro design. I have no idea how old it is....

I don't have this problem either.

I suck 

I don't seem to have issues with the initial quit, but 4 or 5 months down the road.  I need to remember why I quit.

Don't let a slip up discourage you from continuing though.  That's what has happened to me in the past and I just let myself get back into the habit.  Chin up.

Coming up on 4 months for me, feels great.

Yeah dude. That little voice is always going to be there trying to convince you to give in. Maybe at 4 or 5 months is where it just starts to sweet talk you about having done such a good job, and maybe you're ok with this, and you can reward yourself with a smoke or something. Know what you do when that voice shows up? Tell it to go fuck itself. Seriously. Just be like, I got this motherfucker, so step off. And destroy it. It may or may not get the message, but you're stronger than it anyway, so let it come back. Everytime you turn it down, you get stronger, and it gets weaker.

You got this brother!

Been smoke-free for a week today!

but...... I haven't been to the bar or a show in a week. Not sure if I'll be able to stay strong if I go out this weekend.

Sure you will. Take some candy with you and when you feel like having a smoke or wanna step outside when you'd normally have a smoke, pop a candy instead.
