It's harder than you think Jack. A few years ago I quit for about 3 1/2 months. Also, I quit drinking for that period of time too. I started a fitness program in my gym, working out 5 days a week. Then I was getting tired of working out all the time and needed a change so I went out for some drinks to the local watering hole with some of my friends and I started right back smoking again. True Story.

Good luck, I should quit sometime very sooon myself. Very nasty habit.

Jack, don't feel bad...... i'm going back to day 1 for the 2nd time also :( today was day 3, but my blood pressure had SKYROCKETED, so tonight decided to try anything possible to soothe my nerves before having to catch a 6 a.m. flight to ORD for a physical tomorrow morning!!!! i'm on my 2nd smoke right now, and after this one hitting the sack for a 3 a.m. wake up call to get ready to catch a flight. still plan on kicking this nasty habit, but right now, nerves are more important that not smoking, and after talking to a guy tonight at LL practice, he thought i'd be better off going back to bad habits for a bit. (even tho he didn't think it would be blood pressure issues they were looking for in the physical)

Learned big time tho, that giving up alcohol, caffiene, and nicotine all at the same time (thursday) played HELL on the blood pressure, and nothing i could do but lying on my left side would lower it. i'll just spend the whole flight in meditation now....LOL

I'm gonna start in again on nicotine only on Tuesday, so likely will be a day behind you, but each day without is a plus....... (and you are WAY ahead of me so far, as i'm only 5 days free)

I think it will come a time when you will actually want to quit. It is mind over matter. You past the first few days of the actual addiction which was the 72-90 hours so now its all mental.

Why not stick a patch on your arm or use the gum? If you smoke wiht the patch you will have a heart attack so that should help from NOT smoking. Jack, I hope you figure it out. Maybe you should go to a hospital and visit a Cancer centre? I know your dad fell to this sickness and I'm sure he's up there hoping you don't end up like him. Its a nasty habit, very very difficult to quit but you know that one day you will have to whether you want or not. Why not make it on your terms?? 1 Cig, fine, it was an accident but dont go back to smoking. Buy some gum, buy a patch and remember that smoking is a killer.

Wish you all the best!! Quitting smoking is a battle you will fight for the rest of your life. Don't give in. There is a lot more things out there to do with your life!! Be strong!!

Not a Golf post but....youre my bud so...

The drinking thing is BS Jack and you know it. There is no reason you cant drink and not smoke? You keep using it as your out. Stop! Get drunk and sit there with a pack of cigarettes and dont ****ing smoke them. GEEZUS! Do you need Wellbutrin or something? :shrug:

You really SHOULD feel good!!! It was only 1 cig. You did awesome!! 99.9% of smokers won't even pass the first 3 days!! You should be very proud to make it this far!!!


You really are doing fantastic considering you've smoked for most of your life but be strong and keep it up. Be strong bro!!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!! no pressure, screw everyone and remember, its all for you!!
