**guitarzan** · 10-04-2018, 01:29 PM

**Obs** · 10-04-2018, 01:30 PM

I think I may vape.

**Obs** · 10-04-2018, 01:31 PM

Marlboro light is like vaping...

**Chrisp83TRT** · 10-04-2018, 01:41 PM

You got this bro ... I don’t want to see you smoking.
Too many people that I love are either sick or have died due to smoking.
Just get in the habit of staying on a routine

I quit 12 years ago. Cold turkey.

Tried a few times with patches but cold turkey was the best way for me.

Worst thing you can do to your body, they’ll be banned in the UK in 10 years or less I reckon.

Good luck to all you quitters

It can also cause drug induced psychosis in those who have a predisposition to mental illness. Don't get me wrong if it works for you, that's your call. But please don't be advocating rec drugs to people on here.

They make way too much on the tax to do that.

Socio im pretty sure theres ample medical research on marijuana. Not to mention its not recreational if you have a medical card or live in a state that sells it. Were on a forumn for using AAS and youre bitching at me about weed. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

You may want to look at the forum rules... BG

yes this is the anything goes lounge but this is not the I will be a rude to someone section. Your last comment (which I removed) was totally uncalled for.

*admin*

Looks like BG and I were doing this at the same time... great minds...

There is ample research, some conditions it can be beneficial for dependent on how it's grown and for others it can be catastrophic. You do realise he wants to stop smoking for the health benefits..... so good job on advocating he takes a psychoactive substance to supplement the nicotine and carcinogenics.

As for what you eat in your spare time that's your prerogative, but don't tell me about it.

Welcome Tinynutzz glad to see you here.

Your telling me to smoke weed...... Betta check my resume. Lol

Careful on the weed talk.

I've been banned half a dozen times over it.

And it does nothing to help you quit. I wish it did for me, but it doesn't.

If I replaced my ciggs with joints I'd be catatonic, and probably be 300lbs

Also if you will please take your anti cannabis banter elsewhere.

It's seriously pissing me off.

Cuzz your incorrect on all accounts man.

Ffs I just wanted a quit smoking support group thread.

I would ease back on that type of attitude, Tiny, even if this is the lounge. Discussing cannabis use is a very fine line. It has been allowed to a small degree in the past strictly in a medicinal application, but even then it was closely monitored.

Let's all get along and help the man quit the smoking the coffin nails!

First of all I was polite in my initial response to him, he was advocating recs on here which as you said is not permitted so he derailed the thread. Secondly Science and psychiatric admission rates suggests I'm not wrong. I've seen too many people come into the hospital because of rec drugs that lose years of their life because of it. Advocating a substance that can cause such things isn't good for anyone, considering you are trying to give up an addiction I would hope you understand that.

I hope you manage to quit the smoking.

**almostgone** · 10-04-2018, 04:52 PM

Couch, Obs, I had my own ashtray at 11. Smoked cigarettes off and on while on active duty, and then continued for several years until I finally quit.
I caught pneumonia, coughed up something that looked like the inside of a rotten peach, and gave away all the cigs had.
I worked in a shop full of smokers at the time but made my mind up to not buy nor bum a smoke ever again. Started chewing gum, still chew about 10-12 sticks a day now.
With the price those things cost now, the money being spent would be enough of a deterrent!

**HoldMyBeer** · 10-04-2018, 04:56 PM

That's exactly what I did
Used my laziness to my advantage for once
Buy some patches, run out of cigarettes
Then, if you get a craving, you don't NEED nicotine because you got the patch, and you have to drive all the way to the store to buy some. If you are lazy like me, it is too much work to drive to the store. Ezpz

No need to defend your stance (albeit archaic) regarding cannabis.

Let's leave it at that, k?

I believe this is me.
I touch the stuff and it knocks me out while making me feel like absolute crap have tried a lotta times. Whatever good feeling people get from it I get opposite.

I'm not defending anything, merely sharing what contemporary scientific research suggests and working in mental health has shown me. I would be interested in hearing what your opinions are based on but that's a discussion for another time

Hows the patch treating you?

**Obs** · 10-04-2018, 05:13 PM

Mj should be legal.
Period.

Its killed about no one whereas the deadliest drug there is alcohol, is legal. The idea that it is illegal is absolutely ludicrous and makes me want to break people. As soon as the Regan ass kissing baby boomers die off and take thrir reefer madness eith them it will be made legal in all states.

If you do a search under user name couchlock not couchlockd.

You'll see my stance in it

Btw, no one came into your ER from thc.

**almostgone** · 10-04-2018, 05:40 PM

Definitely alcohol and tobacco use put more people in skull orchard than most things.

I wish both of you guys 100% success in dropping the cigs/nicotine!!

If you read what I said earlier, I made reference to how it is grown determining it's effects. I'm also confident that considering everyone has different numbers of various brain receptors/neurotransmitters that you cannot expect a universal response to a drug. This is why people have different reactions to drugs... why some are happy drunks or angry drunks. So I wouldnt be so confident stating that no one on THC has ever had an issue and unfortunately cannabis doesn't just come in strains that are high in thc.

Thanks AG!

I didn't want to but couch may force my hand.
Part of why I love him

**almostgone** · 10-04-2018, 05:46 PM

Seriously, I wish both of you success in kicking the nicotine habit. Really good thread for support in stopping the use of tobacco.

You could compete against each other to an extent, it may help you both kick the habit

**Capebuffalo** · 10-04-2018, 05:55 PM

Socio. Couch is being very polite to a fault. He has requested no more. He wants to keep this his stop smoking thread. Please respect his wishes. Thank you for your understanding in this matter.

There we go.

Whoever can smoke the least wins.

Morning coffee no cig +10
Almost hit a dick, no cig +10

Gf being bitch/argument +10-50 (circumstancial)

Other stress/enjoyment factors to be determined...
