after 8 years of smoking, i finally decided to quit.
However, it was a lot harder than i thought it would be^^

All of my co-workers thought i was grumpy today when i really didn't feel grumpy~~

Anybody got any tips on how to efficiently deal with withdrawal symphtons ?

I don't have any advice, but I'd like to say good on you for quiting. Definitely a step in the right direction and onto a healthier lifestyle (hopefully)
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

You quit smoking for one day? Am I reading this right..

Either way, a day not smoking is one less day putting tons of toxins into your lungs.

As far as staying clean, the best way to keep yourself from wanting to do it again will be to simply replace one habit with another (hopefully healthier) one. Such as chewing gum or something. If you normally go home and eat junk food and sit around all day and want to change, switch your habit with jogging, and after a while you'll start feeling guilty when you don't jog. I don't mean to call it a "habit" as much of an addiction, but I hope it helps a little bit at least :3

Well I think I phrased myself wrongly..
It's not so much i want to smoke,I'm really done with it/sick of it.
But my actions towards other people might suggest I'm grumpy i dunno ^^

It's always nice to hear some support^^

Edit. And yes, it may only be for one day so far, but my mindset has changed so that it doesn't tempt me as much to take one last cigarette anymore.
Look forward, but think back..

If I don't smoke for a while I get insanely grumpy. I only realize afterwards though.

mad props. start working out, preferrably cardio and you won't be able to start smoking again, because your results will suck
I know that deep inside of you there's a humongous set of testicles just waiting to pop out. Let 'em pop bro. //////////////////// AKA JensOfSweden // Lee Yoon Yeol forever.

The cardio only helps relieve the tension in your body from not smoking. I jog 3~ miles a day and smoke a pack a day and because I've always done them, there has never been a change in results.

Cardio and pushups (rage ups) will help not feel so hostile , even if you don't notice it.

and avoid starcraft, losing a game will make you want to choke some nerds.
