i havent touched a ciggy since someone i loved (yes it was from smoking) died from lung cancer and that was 6 years ago buuuuut ...it's now 4am and i cant sleep and i am reaching for that f*cking cigarette when i know i shouldnt

no, you should not..

no...I wouldn't...

No, please don't.

wouldnt hurt to have one..?

the first is the easiest to resist. It's like a class in college...once you skip one class, you open the door to missing it every week. You have one chocolate, and you can't stop till dinner.

You can resist it...until you break down once. Then it's game over.

But if you have the willpower to resist further ones...then why not?

a 6 year old cigarette???? you just happen to have some laying around? I think the taste of a six year old cigarette would be enough to make you .
keep your phone handy too a 6 year old cigarette is definitely a fire hazard..

If you haven't touched them in 6 years, how would there be any close at hand?

i bought a pak

throw it away and destroy them....

.shall i post the American cancer Assoc. report on smoking..???

it's pretty scary



please..... find your self respect and take good care of yourself


alex

how about NO?

How is a 6 yr. old cig. anymore a fire hazard than a 6 day old one?

Could it be because as soon as you light it, it's so dry an all?

Ok.....I checked your profile and see children involved in your life....smoking is a learned from others......who close to you smoked? and do you want to teach others my example?

don't smoke

sorry..... "by example"...to early

Sure ...Why not ... Its just one ......Just make sure you smoke it really fast ...... Ya won't want another after that !!

Smoking can be addictive. Tobacco used to be the medium of exchange instead of the dollar when America was started. King George called it foul smelling stuff when Sir Raleigh brough it to him. The tobacco companies brought it to the employees' place of work and offered it for free back in the early fourties. Many people who didn't smoke then took up the habit. It was legal trafficking back then. I was at the hospital, yesterday. In Arkansas hospital grounds are state protected against smoking, today. The freedom or right you enjoy today maybe illegal, tomorrow. Two teenagers said that you can't smoke in the parking lot because it is against the law. I laughed because they were right. Since they have been born many laws have been created. They went to the nurse and said we told them it was wrong. A fellow student said you tattle-tale. The nurse just said it was against the law. I am glad the tattle-tales have that right. Being an older smoker I can remember when it wasn't a law. I can remember where all the ash trays were in the hospital. I can remember all the cigarette commercials on television. I can remember when the "Thank you for not smoking signs" came about and the recent no smoking in public facilities came about. This county was dry for many years and recently went wet. It has hurt many bootleggers but now the legal sellers of alcohol have their turn. Many drug dealers have been busted. I can remember when the sherrif of another town I was at confiscated many drugs and paraphenalia for the Alcohol and Beverage Control and sold them at the sherriff's office until one of the guys he busted shot him through the eyes a half mile from where I lived. It is best that you make that choice not to smoke than to have someone else make that choice for you.

Since it is now 3 hours past the time you posted this Butterwings I have only one question:

Were you strong enough to not smoke it or did you give in?

You are stronger than a ciggy..., Well I hope its not too late anyway.. I never smoke din my life and you just can imagine the huge rows I have with my dear Dad cos he smokes like a chimney...

You havn't smoked since 6 years ago but you have cigarettes within your reach? Maybe not have any in the house and something sweet like gummy bears or gum or something else that can sooth you and help you keep your mind off of the cravings?

Maybe think about what that person you loved so much went through with the cancer next time you think about lighting up and think at how that could be you in the future and how you don't want to suffer.

Do you have any children? Maybe think how they need their mom good and healthy and to stick around for a long time?

Just a few suggestions for you. Maybe try to find something that can help you fight those sudden cravings.

If you pick light up a cigarette now, after six years of being smoke-free, you are an idiot, plain and simple.
