Quoting Mro to Tiny <=-

whats disgusting is when people hit it hard and it's in their clothes
and their whole body. that smells horrible.

Yes it does. Even when they come in from outside after smoking the cheap native "bag o' smokes".

i guess you didnt have the junkie effect.

I was pretty lucky I guess. Every vice I've quit there have been no
real effects.

Ugh, I had a buddy that smoked cloves all the time. I actually had to air out my clothes even when I'd ONLY been in the same room with him, not even around when smoking or anything.

Awesome that you kicked that. But, if you ever (EVER) decide to try again, PLEASE remember that you don't need to take as much as you did when you regularly did them, and only take a tiny fraction of what you did before.

Yep, I've known of a couple people that have died that way. Addiction is bad and one cannot let themselves think that they are above it, or over it.. theres always that one event, sound, smell, or anything that could trigger a relapse. So definaly I stay very aware of that and use time to stop and think. It's definatly not worth it, I have distanced myself from ANYONE I used to hang with. It's far too dangerous anymore to fool with anything, they are putting carfentanil in EVERYTHING, spiking pain pills, xanax. vapes. marijuana, I mean everything. and it's crazy.. there is definatly no room for complacency.

To this day I still cannot stand to smell cigarettes and cant stand the taste or the consistancy of a soda, cannot believe I used to consume so much of that crap.

Pepsi is the last of my 'vices' and one I need to stop and soon...

It seems to me things like that in moderation are okay. Pepsi is one of my favorite sodas (I like it better than Coke).

Quoting Mro to Tiny <=-

I was still able to quit. It wasn't easy, but it wasn't like I was
climbing the walls either. Smoked for over 1/2 my life at the time I
quit.

I don't want to belabor this but, I started smoking at 12 yo, and gave it by best until I had the (almost) BIG one at 60 yo and got me a membership in the chest scar club. Soon as I felt better, I lit up. 4 years after that i found out I had throat cancer and spent 4 months at Princess Margaret getting 'the works' during Covid. I STILL stared at butt's on the ground. Finally quit!

It's tough man. Sing like a baratone now. :-)

At least you quit eventually! ;) I had oral cancer in 2007 and that was
it for me, Doc said it had a much better chance of not coming back if I
didn't smoke again, so I didn't.

Yes it does. Even when they come in from outside after smoking the cheap native "bag o' smokes".

When I was ~25, I went out for a while with a lady who smoked. I never
could figure out how she did it but she never smelled like she smoked. I
know she smoked outside often, but I also know she smoked in her car and in other indoor places (you could smoke in restaurants back then, for example).

OTOH, about 10 years ago I went out for a few times with another gal who smoked. She was also, IMHO, an alcoholic. She often smelled like an
ashtray that someone had spilled stale beer in. I am glad I didn't date
her when I was younger! :o

I quit soda years ago and I was a habitual drinker. I just quit cold turkey and don't have any suggestions other than when I feel a hankering I actually have carbonated water. It kind of fakes me out a little that I'm having a soda. I realize it's not the same thing and might even be not attactive, I certainly didn't like them. But I do now and it fills the need when I need it.

Funny you mention the faking out thing. Sometimes I'll have a carbonated water and it tricks my brain into thinking I'm having an alcoholic drink, and then it makes me want a cigarette.

yeah, i had a coworker who smoked a lot and didn't smell. she would just smoke outside.

I do the same thing with the fake beer and fake booze. I don't feel I'm missing anything except the stuff that's bad for me. :)

When I was younger (late '80s/early '90s), the folks who smoked clove cigarettes were not goths. Most of the goths that smoked in college smoked
the real ones (and drank like fish).

Hand sanitizing wasn't a big thing back then. Washing was though. ;) I
think she used a perfume or lotion that must have either got rid of it or covered it up real good.

Two hookers were talking on a street corner.

One of them asked "Do you smoke when you finish?"

The other one said "I don't know, I never looked."
