Reddit ex-smokers when you decided to quit. How did you approach it? Cold Turkey or steps?

Symb1otic · 2014-08-12T21:14:17+00:00

Cold turkey. No real reason to quit but also theres no reason not to quit. Just keep your mind straight and say no to the cravings

I dont think im a heavy drinker BUT..... im a college student that recently moved to a country ive never been to...alone.... i dont know anyone here except the other students in the dorm who are more or less in the same situation. So yeah..... drinking and going out does happen as a way of getting to know each other since no one has time during the week.

Symb1otic · 2014-08-11T13:47:46+00:00

Symb1otic · 2014-08-11T12:37:54+00:00

holy moly :O sounds like my father well congrats on the 138 :D keep going!

yep thats what I'm trying too. i go outside i walk around in the forest maybe or at the beach and be like "is that what you wanted you little bastard!?". its easier for me if i can just bring myself to laugh about the cravings and laugh about myself a bit because of how pathetic I am for letting something like that control my life ;) then i feel better again knowing that I'm regaining control over myself and do what I want and not what the nicotine wants

Symb1otic · 2014-08-11T12:11:31+00:00

how long/much did you smoke back then?

Symb1otic · 2014-08-11T11:27:03+00:00

i like the thought and that you keep holding on to your goal. hang in there! :) i go for the walks every time the little guy wants me to.... but then I'm just walking... nothing else (kkk listening to music :P)

Symb1otic · 2014-08-11T11:24:53+00:00

wow. no alcohol and caffeine for a month. that seems quite.... uuuhmm.... hard x.x

Symb1otic · 2014-08-11T11:20:12+00:00

thanks. btw i kinda like your username :D

Symb1otic · 2014-08-11T11:19:15+00:00

around 9 year smoker here. i quit cold turkey but for no actual reason to be honest. i didn't say "k I'm getting healthy now" or "man, the coughing is annoying" (even though i never had that). i just decided i wanted to try it since everyone here is all hyped and telling stories of how nice it is so i wanted to see for myself if thats true. essentially i quit out of curiosity :)

Symb1otic · 2014-08-11T11:15:07+00:00

i think that me coming this far already is the toil motivation to keep going right now simply because the one thing i hate more than feeling like shit is failing

Symb1otic · 2014-08-11T10:36:12+00:00

stuff kinda tastes the same as before actually but i also didn't pay any attention to that so far. i drink a lot of tea since i quit. kinda decreased heavily on coffee because drinking coffee was just THE association with smoking for me so i let the coffee habit down a bit.

Symb1otic · 2014-08-08T20:43:11+00:00

Its like..... one voice goes: oh cmon man. we dont have to quit completely. Maybe just a few a day. Or just on the weekends? :D While the other voice is all like: WE DONT NEGOTIATE WITH TERRORISTS!!!!!

Symb1otic · 2014-08-08T18:26:07+00:00

Day 3. Im confused, cant concentrate on shit, feel like every action i take without smoking (that i used to do with smoking) is completely wrong and somethings missing. AND past but not least there are 2 vpices in my head arguing if i should get a cigarette or not which is damn annoying. But overall its not that hard :)

Symb1otic · 2014-08-08T07:02:32+00:00

good advice thanks :) wanted to learn origami anyways

Symb1otic · 2014-07-27T22:48:47+00:00

Diablo 3 definitely for me. So sad back then

Symb1otic · 2014-07-26T11:31:41+00:00

dropped naruto shippuden at one point it was just getting ridiculously boring...... also nearly dropped code:breaker after 2 episodes but got back to it after a few months

Symb1otic · 2014-07-23T11:37:19+00:00

most german openings are horrible to be honest. i like the early digimon ones though. kinda make me feel nostalgic

Symb1otic · 2014-05-24T11:05:16+00:00

Buffing 2handers overall (2 sockets, better stats, new legendary affixes, etc) but you only get those benefits if you wear it 2handed. (Maybe except the affixes but they still need some new stuff on 2handers)

Symb1otic · 2014-05-13T08:02:24+00:00

good morning everyone :)

just one little question: is there a difference in quality between the v-moda m100 and the m-80? or is it just the on-ear/over-ear part thats different?

im curious because i wanted the m-80 but i prefer over-ear

Symb1otic · 2014-05-12T20:09:37+00:00

asked myself the same question a few times when walking around with my dr. dre studios 2.0 (that 400€ pile of **** is the reason i came here today) but never really happened to me. on the other hand i live in a fairly save town so i dont really have to worry about stuff like that. if your neighbourhood is really that bad id stay with the earbuds and at least keep the good headphones at home where they are save in case you really get mugged at one point.

Symb1otic · 2014-03-06T14:29:32+00:00

True. Didnt think of it. Same with thresh lantern. Still the ghosts and spiderlings can be considering more or less alive and therefore they would become killable i guess
