Giving up - Day 4
Ågen†™ Started conversation Aug 12, 2005
Well, I made it through Day 3 without cracking, but now the weekend is looming I'm feeling very unsure of myself.
I ALWAYS get drunk on friday night, I'm assuming this will be a bad move, so intend to stay sober . However, I have tickets to Jongleurs comedy club tonight and have been talked into going against my better judgement. Will I be able to remain sober and off the fags? Or even get drunk and not have a smoke? Place your bets here...
Aside from that worrisome problem, things are going okay. Still gagging for a ciggy but I'm expecting that so I'm prepared for it. The drink and pubs will be the killer...

If you crack then i will beat you with a stick!
whenever you quit your always going to have something coming up, take lots of gum and try to sit near people who don't smoke, and tell them not to let you smoke! and believe me if you do smoke when you have a patch on you will wish you hadn't, makes you feel VERY ill! and than if your drunk you will prob be sick, and then you won't enjoy the rest of your night out!
so the easiest thing to do is JUST SAY NO!!!

Thanks Duck - I have realised that giving up isn't easy, but if you're aware it's going to be tough then it makes it easier (if that makes sense)

Agent that makes perfect sense, knowing what your in for makes handeling it easier, i have some stuff that might help!
120,000 British men are impotent because of smoking - do you want a droopy fella?
Smoking causes 5,400 property fires every year in the UK - do you want to burn down your shiny new kitchen?
Tobacco smoke contains about 4,000 chemicals - many of them known
to cause cancer or be toxic in other ways. Here's just some of the less familiar poisons released when you light a cigarette:
Arsenic - a deadly poison, used in insecticides
Ammonia - the main ingredient of strong cleaning fluids
Acetone - this widely used solvent is in nail-polish remover
Benzene - another solvent, used in fuel manufacturing
Cadmium - highly poisonous metal, used in batteries
Formaldehyde - used to preserve dead bodies
Hydrogen Cyanide - a lethal gas
ohhhh yummy!
if you smoke 20 a day ( i guessed at how much but correct me if i'm wrong) you spend £30.10 a week, £129.00 a month and £1,569.50 a year!
think of all the ways you could treat yourself with that money? so next monday you are to go out and buy yourself a present for £30, get some CD's or DVD's or a nice new top! go on spoil yourself!
Agent i have huge amounts of faith in you my friend! xxxxx

I smoked rollies, so I spent about £6 a week - not exactly a huge saving...

It's the easiest way to shut him up
but really i can't give up till i want to, you know that! and right now i have no motive!

My motive is I've been told to give up - that and the withholding of sex inspired me.

It works, although I'm still fairly sure it's a pretty underhand method.

C - I think it works better the other way round (if you get my drift?)
