    Remember chatting to @Markybhoy off here on another thread about smoking and saying that avoiding it when drinking was the toughest thing.

    Well I've managed to stop having a smoke even when drunk, so delighted with that!

    (It's probably because they cost the equivalent of £15 per pack out here...)

    Yep, smoke about 2/3 a day, I blame the stress of Work...

    Used to only be after a few Drinks, I'd get the urge, so, I need to go back to that routine and gradually come of them altogether.

    Smoking at least 20 a day now.

    Worse when I'm drinking, went on holiday and bought 400 at the airport and had done in the first 200 in like 5/6 days

    Had stopped for 2 years as well.

    I vape. Used to smoke but I find vaping enjoyable although it can be a pain having to get the liquid. I hardly use any nicotine for my
    E cig though. Smoking is a distant memory for me now.

    On about 10 a day now, more when drinking. Smoking roll ups so not to expensive.

    Love it and hate it at the same time :56:

    Stopped smoking 4 months ago, vaping now and down to 0.3% liquid, hoping to go down to 0% with the next lot I buy, then I'll need to try cut down the vaping and maybe get off that eventually.

    I only use tobacco for joints but my girlfriend gets through 20 a day and she's been buying 200 packs of (supposedly) Mayfair from an elderly neighbour for £45 for the 200. You can smell they're not right as they burn and the 200 pack comes wrapped in clear cellophane which is strange because a 200 pack of Mayfair should look like this. She's only 38 and they are giving her a * of a cough:

    Just can't get enough
    Iv not got the will power to do it, iv tried a few times and have a couple of vapes they just don't cut it tho, the 24hour patch was the closest iv came to giving up, I don't drink much which is a bonus but joints bring me back, I hate it and is one of the biggest regrets of my life

    Never smoked cigs. Made up for it for the amount of dope I smoked. Stopped about 6 years ago and vape now. More when I drink. It’s actually weird seeing people smoke real cigs now. Vape seems more popular. * disgusting and expensive. Sticks to your clothes and your breath and hair.

    It’s not as hard as people make out. Although I can tell myself to stop because I have a strong resolve.

    Stress ball or just a pen. Kid on your smoking it. 70% psychology. 30% addition.

    Only ever really smoke at night. Find smoking in the day depressing, which is weird.
