I've never smoked. I'm allergic. I hate going to the bar and having to leave after 20 minutes because I can't breathe and because I have a headache.

Ughh! I started smoking at 15. First it was Newports, then Marlboro Reds, then Camel Filters, then Camel Lights/Ultra Lights. I quit earlier this year, but crave ciggies every day of my life!!!!!

I smoke to someone who quit like 15 years ago and she said she STILL has cravings, especially when she smells smoke. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

i smoke.....been doing it for years....i made a promise to quit (which i've yet to complete)

its an addiction and oral fixation for me.

i'm a bundle of contridictions for example: i actually hate everything related to smoking, the smell, the smoke, the taste....yuck! i'm working and people come up to me smoking i ask them very politely to put it out, i start to gag. people who know that i'm a regular smoker (at work) shake their heads when i do this. no one in my social circle smoke so i dont smoke around them.

hell i dont smoke around my parents (i'm in my 30s), neither does my sister....we see it as very disrepectful, my dad smokes and my
mother quit sometime in the 80s.

yes i know that i'm strange

You know, I'm kind of the same way. I don't like people blowing smoke in face, I never smoke around my parents (they don't know I smoke...if I want a cigrette I take a walk...I never do it around the house).
I didn't start smoking till I went to university and I always hated smoking.

It's illegal to smoke in restaurant, bar, casion, etc, etc in Toronto now. So, if I'm at a bar and want a smoke I have to go outside.
A lot of cities in Ontario and B.C have these laws. I'm not sure about other provinces.

Things are a little "different" in Iowa.

I'm allergic. I got used to it for a little while because I dated a smoker..but now I get sick if I'm around it for very long. Even if I'm just around it a little (walking past someone smoking) I get headaches. It sucks.

I'm the same way. I smoke, but I hate all aspects of it, like the smell and taste, etc.

My mom and dad know I smoke... My mom smokes with me. But my dad hates it! Everytime I talk to him on the phone he asks me how I'm doing on quitting... And my grandparents don't know. They'd kick my butt if they found out!!

I need to stop... I hate smoking... But it's too damn hard to quit.

I smoke, but I'm currently trying to quit. Any tips from anyone who has already quit?

This is a bad thread. Everytime I read I want to have a smoke.

I'll be going out shortly for one.

There is a reason I didn't post in this thread. YOu tell all my secrets.


I'm allergic to cigarrettes and I think they're nasty so no, and no.

I've been smoking for 3 years, and I'm finally quitting!! I hate smelling and tasting like smoke, and trying to hide it from my parents and even my boyfriend at times. I'm doing fine now, have maybe one a week just because I miss having something in my hand. Don't know what's going to happen when I go back up to school, though. Everyone I know smokes, and at the bars and such, I ALWAYS have a cig in my hand. I know its bad, but that doesn't stop me from having 'one more cigarette'
At the very least, I won't be smoking AS MUCH.
