Reply #184: I'm an x-smoker. I timed my nicotine urges, when I quit it was about every 10 minutes [View All]

The longer I didn't smoke the longer the time between urges. It was almost impossible for me to not have a smoke when the urges came. Especially when I was doing certain things like having coffee.

No matter where I was the urges came. I could not sit through a movie at a theater. Also the coughing bothered other people.

Smoking is an anti social behavior unless you live in a vacuum. And I would venture a guess that smokers would not smoke if they weren't addicted and would agree with me if the truth be known.

I really don't care if you smoke. I do care if your habit affects other people negatively. So if you can find a way to smoke and not affect other people than go right ahead.

And don't try to tell my you are not addicted to nicotine and need a fix regularly.
