It really is an accomplishment that millions of others haven't achieved so don't be too disappointed that it was so easy; if you think you can quit anytime it, might lead you to start again. Cheers bro! I actually stopped smoking for a week at one point some years ago. I thought it was so easy so i thought to myself "if it's this easy then i can just buy 1 more package and stop after it, how much can it hurt?"...

******A little update.*********
I was at a party last night. I were with some of my old friends and they had all quit tobacco. We had some beers and was going to go hit the town. It've always been that you drink some and then go out and have a smoke. I had a really rough inner conversation with myself that i wouldn't smoke. One side said that it's a party and tobacco is a part of it, and it's ok. The other half told me that if you are going to quit you can never smoke ever again. I decided to go with the side that said that you cant smoke ever again.
Later when we got out my friends that have "stopped" started smoking and said that it was okey for them to smoke at parties, it's a part of it. (I guess you call it partysmokers?)
My question to you is is it okey to be a partysmoker and say that you're not a smoker?
|
congratz! try to stay off it and avoid temptation. hopefully you wont get drunk and then accidentally start up again.
and i would say a partysmoker is still a smoker... just not as habitual

nice work.. tough to get rid of a smoking hot friend like that

Congrats! To celebrate your success, how about a cigar?
|
Very nice man. Congratulations, really.
As for the "smoking @ parties", I just wouldn't risk it. Not just because nicotine is addictive (which it is), but because you might tie the positive emotions of being at the party and enjoying yourself with the cigarette. Then next time you're alone and feeling down you might want to light one up, and your noble fight has been lost.
|
I think smoking at a party depends on how much you party. If you party once a week I think it's a bad idea...
|
Congrats! I quit tobacco about 2 years ago and know what its like. As for partysmokers..I don't see the point. Either quit and don't do it at all or not. There is no middle ground to me.

That's wassup man. I got with her too at college but I'm slowly weening myself since it's summer and there's not really any peer pressure. I was able to quit cold turkey pretty easily.
that's also cuz I have another chick by the of M.J. She and I will be together for a bit more...until I become more mature you know.
|
i think smoking at parties is bad when you have quit tobacco already. i will probably just drag you back in. i don't think it's very harmful for people who never were addicted and who just have one or two smokes with a beer at a night out (or who smoke when they are very drunk (me) :p).
|
Yeah...tobacco and alcohol does mean ass things. But nah, don't do it man. Your body has the disposition to become addicted. It might even be genetic so smoking at when your drunk can only lead to a slippery slope.

I like the way you wrote your blog . Congratulations on your accomplishment!

Well, this girl that you've broken up with, you know, she wants more. She's stalking you out, trying to accidentally bump into you at parties, social gatherings and what not.
To you, getting back together at a party seems like a one night stand but to her it will just add fuel to the flames and you'll just bump into her more and more, at every damn party.
Soon, you'll have a party in your apartment, have your way with her (just this one time, right?) and BAM, before you know it, her toothbrush will be on you sink and then you're back together. You'll have to go through the whole break up again.
It's not worth it! Good luck mate!

Shit, shouldn't have opened the spoiler before reading the story. Would've been so much more fun.
My question to you is is it okey to be a partysmoker and say that you're not a smoker?
Even I, who's really only smoking at parties (and even then it's really rare) don't dare to call myself a non-smoker. I think it'll be quite difficult to refrain from smoking if you still smoke at parties. I know quite a lot of people who tried to smoke only on parties and they fell back into their habit pretty soon. But oh well, never were addicted, never needed to quit, never went through that.

I tried to be a "partysmoker" and started to smoke regulary, twice. It's not from one day to another. It takes month where I was a "partysmoker" then there was stress on work or gf quited or just a lovly warm evening on the balcony. I think the step to smoke regulary is smaler when you smoke from time to time.
Otherwise, a friend of mine is partysmoker for some years now.
I would'nt risk it on your position.
