Alright, so I'm quitting smoking at the moment (shut up josh, saturday was a once off.....probably). Anyways, I'm not too bad at work coz I can keep myself busy, but when you're at home and your housemate is out what the hell do you do with yourself. I've been playing online poker to keep me preoccupied, but eventually that ends, plus its hot and it would be nice going outside and relaxing with a pack of B&H......Please zedders....give me something to do! *goes to fish through the ash tray while awaiting replies* Cordially Yours, Breathing better in Ballajura
I do better cold turkey...I don't see the point in spending the same amount of cash on less fulfilling smigs! And it I just reduce my number of smigs I'm going to end up smoking the same amount anyways. Quitting aint the problem....its what I do with my hands.....actually scrub that, its what I do to stay entertained that's the problem.
Go for a nice scenic drive, go to the beach, damn play something better than online poker , tinker with your car, go out with your misses, go to the movies, draw a picture lol, read a auto salon mag.
1 he doesnt have a missus..... well not yet.... and as for porn... thats 2 mins gone what else is there to do
Actually when I get the pics of ya mum out I'm lucky if I make it 90 seconds.....luckily I have pics of rob that settle me down again....pictures like this one: WHAT A STALKER!!! WOULD HATE TO BE THE GUY WITH THE WHITED OUT FACE!!!!!
LOL Try and substitute smoking with something else...i just cigarettes with water. sounds lame but it helps. Everytime i wanted a cigarette i drank water instead. Only thing is that you'll be pissing a lot
What I've done in the past is have heaps of unshelled peanuts around. Whenever I want a smoke I would just munch on those and the shelling would keep me preoccupied. Maybe I should give prawns a go this time or something.
I have never smoked so cant speak from experience... But I can say i've never had the urge or desire to. Just put yourself into denial through the withdrawl period and pretend like you've never smoked in your life so you should have no reason to want to pick one up. That, or think of your HEALTH!
as paul has been saying though it is not the cravings as such it is the well what do i do now symptom, if you have say half a pack a day and say a ciggy takes 5 mins, that is over an hour of your awake day which is say 15 hours total, 8 or so hours of this you are working so it doesnt bother you. So 1 hour in every 7 is spent smoking, you already have food times and what not in this time so it is a matter of finding something to do which can be hard to do
I would, but I would normally focus on biting my nails during my smoke periods....doing it without a smig just feel wrong....and trying to do my toenails is just uncomfortable! I was thinking ice dancing, as I use to play ice hockey and man do I look hot in tights and a skivy!
