Any bets me or Devil Nicotine

Quitting tobacco is difficult. I dipped for decades. After, trying to quit and telling a lot of folks I had, I snuck it for years. I was finally able to quit and haven't had a dip in 4-5 years.
Now, gin - that's another story! Hmmm. Is it five o'clock, yet?

Quitting smoking is the hardest thing I have ever done. But I DID it (about ten or twelve years now). Hang in there, and remember you want to live more than you want to die. I am betting on you.
I got 100 bucks on you.
Or a box of green tip 556 ammo.
Phuck the devil weed.

If I stay out of bars when drinking it’s easier. The wife smokes Marlboro Black and they just plain stink.
For lots of years I only smoked during the renfest. Most of those that really knew me could predict it pretty go just watching me.
I always tried to stop the last day I worked renfest by running out.
Stopping ain’t hard not restarting is hard.

Hardest thing I ever did. Marlboro was $2.20 a carton in the service. The day I quit I immediately went out and ran track until exhaustion. The phenomes or whatever helped me. Just realize that once you quit you can never start back again or you are hooked again. Good luck, it can be done. That was 46 years ago.
Hope for the best!
I got someone to stop smoking. There's a filter system (four or five filters). You start with the lowest level; put your cigarette into it, then smoke. You have to clean it afterwards. (Yuck.) Smoke, clean, repeat, then switch to the next level. The smoker quit after the second or third level.
I think the filters came from Walgreens.

Tried that in 1976. Kept up with it for about 3 weeks. Then I got the flu. Blamed it on those damn filters and went back to cigs.
It’s tough, but you can do it. I myself quit April 24, 2017, and I know how hard it is. Stick with it. The first 3-4 days are the worst; once you get past that, it’s much easier. Some night sweats and interesting dreams if going cold turkey, but those are short lived. I smoked for 27 years prior to that, so it was ingrained in all I did. Coffee in the morning without a cigarette took some getting used to. You will feel better. If there was a propensity for “allergies” sinus infections or bronchitis, you may see those infections subside. Plus, the $ saved will be like a pay raise.
