  • Laser Treatment for Smoking.

Just had the treatment. 35 minutes of Acupuncture through Reflexology.

Patient: Me, been smoking for 8 years, ~2 packs per day.

-------

Initial impression: I don't feel any different, i'm not "DYING" to smoke.

Stay tuned, next test, lunch.
Good luck stopping smoking dude.

Make sure u eat a lot of fibers. Or else ure gonna smoke again after 5 days. ;)
Lunch done: Well, i wouldn't mind a cig right now but it's bearable . Looks like it's more about your will to stop so far.

Next up, coffee
coffee's going to be tough!

I had been smoking for 5 years approx a pack per day. I used to smoke at uni. I got to the job, no one smokes in the workplace. I stopped.

I do not claim to have completely stopped. I still smoke from time to time (mainly with my girlfriend, she's a smoker) and it's somewhat difficult to stop completely. But I managed to stop smoking at the office out of sheer habit.

Good luck xterm
Guys do yourself a favor and stop smoking!

Good luck xterm!
I used to smoke 15 cigs a day last year. Before that I was an occasional smoker. Since I met my girfriend I have stopped smoking, she doesnt smoke and she doesnt like me smoking, but I think what really made me stop is a psychological switch... something psychological. I eat a lot now, though.

BTW, there's also hypnotherapy for smoking. I know its hard to just quit, I wish you good luck, and I think the best thing is to have someone push you to stop smoking and support you in that.

I passed through lots of phases:
- First I drastically cut down consumption
- Then I try to stop totally and succeed at first
- Then I regularly relapse, telling myself something that this is the last cigarette (although I'm not really smoking much)
- Then I finally realise that I've been without smoking for a while... and start thinking (hope) that I'm finally over it.

In that process I passed through moments where I felt that I was ignoring behind who I really was.

Maybe smoking is not just a stupid habit, but something that has a meaning, and part of who you are and were.
At least for me that's how it felt sometimes.

Nope, it's just a stupid habit. And who ever came up with the idea of smoking should've been executed in the most horrible way.
i dare anyone to tell me one beneficial use of smoking !

It's cool. No matter what you say.
if its that cool , why am i not striving for one ?!
I only have a conclusion:

This conversation doesn't have a conclusion.

That's all.

It's up to you to choose whether to stop or not. And most people don't want to stop.

Ok then those who do not want to stop should atleast have the decency not to smoke in public, especially when there are people sitting there.

I still do not understand why smoking is not banned in public places...

+1000!

I personally do not smoke and hate people smoking around me.
I wish this law can be enforced here in Lebanon.

Lol no you did not "come up" with smoking. I mean the person who first said that tobacco can be smoked and started doing it. And no of course I do not smoke. You quit right?
Good thing i don't smoke or drink coffee or Nescafe. :)
P.S:I tried smoking the first time when i was 8 years old.
Kassem wroteean the person who first said that tobacco can be smoked and started doing it. And no of course I do not smoke. You quit right?
Sorry... misunderstanding.
Yep, I officially quit, not that I was smoking that much. I prefer saying that I dont smoke anymore. But you never know, someday I might "relapse".
You guys definitely heard about the increase in the prices of alcohol and Tobacco and the decrease in the price of Fuel. What do you think about it.

I totally vote for this. and i wish that they did that 50 years ago.
