Are you pregnant?  That was the first sign when I was pregnant with my first child.  I went from smoking a pack of cigarettes one day to nada the next.  And the smell bothered me so bad that everytime my husband came inside from smoking I would make him take a shower and change into fresh clothes.

I don't think it has much to do with what kind-I for one never had the money to buy the kind buds....but I've heard this happens to pretty much everybody who quits smoking and tries it again-it happened to me, too.  It's a combination of the fact that your tolerance level is gone because your system is clear of marijuana after about 30 days, and possibly a little natural guilt and/or paranoia.  Being a pothead changes your state of mind all the time, and you get used to idea of smoking/carrying, and possibly getting caught, etc.  It's been a while since you dealt with the legal and consequential aspects of it, and I think a certain amount of "paranoia" about that is normal, and maybe even good for you, as it keeps you careful, if that makes any sense.  If you really want to start smoking again, I personally think it should be legal and that alot of people should be REQUIRED to smoke a joint every morning before facing the world-just get back into it slowly.  You cannot bombard your nervous system with the same amount of pot that you were smoking when you had a good tolerance.  Just smoke less until you get used to it again.

HI, It seems stress is taking its hold. Maybe you should tackle stress directly and see whether you still crave passive smoke.\ncan you try doing some breathing exercizes? inhale filling your lungs from your nose hold for 5 seconds than release for you mouth as slowly as possible. repeat the exercize for 6 times increasing by 6 secinds each time.\nYou should do this in a very relaxed position. It will help in reducing your stress levels.

no it because of the chemicals in the second hand smoke that you may be inhaling-ask far as your ribs being cracked you would have to consult with a doctor on what activities you can participate in from those you cant.  I am not licensed to tell you that

When I stopped smoking for a while, I ate chocolate covered cherries-which was something I hated before that time or at least did not like well enough to eat more than once a year.  Oddly enough coffee and hot tea-green tea wild berry plum flavor!  It was excellent.  I was so tormented.  Water and exercise and daily chores will help keep your mind off of it.  Plus, being away from smokers.  That was my trouble and stressful times got the best of me.  Better luck to you.  Believe me you will feel so much better and like a stronger person for overcoming this addiction.  You will have more energy and that will replace the urge for smoking-your new re-found health!!! :)

smoking is the bigest turn off for me, it makes everything smell, and it rubs of. you could be the last man on eart, but if you smoke, no way

I gave up in March this year. Was very difficult, but worth it. Get some help with a group via NHS or do it with another smoker who is keen to give up, especially if theres someone at work. You can spend your break times together instead of rushing out for a quick smoke! Keep trying it will be worth it.

i used to run 5k and 10k races. when i got heavy into training i would stop smoking about 2 weeks before the race. after a good race (in awful weather) i decided i wouldn't smoke until i craved the cigarette. i had opened packs at  my house and work, but when i tried to smoke them (just out of habit) they made me sick. i had sweated out all the nicotine during training, therefore i had no withdrawals. it's been 25 years

Smoking's a phase most of us all go through. If it isn't too late for you, try visiting a hospital cancer center. There will invariably be patients, emaciated, hairless cancer victims, with I.V.s attached, outside 'enjoying' their cigarettes. REALLY makes one think, doesn't it?

I fail to comprehend why anyone would start smoking? I challenge you to name me one benefit to smoking.

Dear Friend, \n\nGood on you that you want to quit. YOU CAN DO IT!!! Can a smoker overcome the physical addiction and habitual behaviors of tobacco use? The answer is a resounding yes. Not only is quitting possible, but it is also highly beneficial. It is never too late to stop using tobacco. Quitting at any age and in any state of health improves one’s health.\nBecause no single condition leads to tobacco dependence, no single solution cures smokers of their dependence on cigarettes. Some people are able to quit smoking easily, while some find quitting so difficult that they do not quit even when facing tobacco’s serious health problems. Smokers who believe that quitting smoking will be easy or that God will make it easy for them may become disillusioned if they experience the normal withdrawal symptoms or if they relapse back to smoking. Therefore, it is wise for smokers to take time to plan this important change carefully and prayerfully.\n\nSuccessful treatment can include at least three components: (1) counseling and advice from a skilled, knowledgeable professional, with a focus on developing problem-solving skills, overcoming barriers to quitting, and preventing relapse; (2) support from friends and family members; and (3) the possible correct, careful use of legal stop-smoking medications, including nicotine replacement and other drugs tested for safety and effectiveness.\n\nA local hospital or clinic may offer a stop-smoking group, and a health professional may be able to provide expert advice about medications that can help ease the physical and emotional discomfort of withdrawal symptoms. A nicotine replacement medication helps control withdrawal symptoms over a period of weeks or months while the ex-smoker gradually becomes accustomed to living without tobacco. 11 Nicotine replacement products are not designed to replace nicotine permanently; rather, the ex-smoker tapers off the nicotine replacement medication over a period of weeks.\n\nThe least successful way to stop smoking is to try to quit all at once, or “cold turkey,” without any kind of help. Quitting this way may seem like a good idea at the time, but statistics show that only a very small percentage of those who attempt to quit this way will still be smoke-free a year later. The work of quitting smoking involves not only the initial actions of becoming tobacco-free, but also the lifetime task of remaining tobacco-free.\n\nCheers

Smoking.  Haven't had a cigarette in 20 years now.  Tried cold turkey 3 times and failed... but then I got so sick with the flu that I didn't WANT to smoke for three days... and when I got better  the withdrawal was over so I decided to ride it out.  One of the best things I ever did for myself!

Smoking interferes with my life in every aspect, including work. The cravings cause me to become distracted at work. Out in public I have to search for places that allow smoking. On trips; disney world, the bronx zoo, etc., I have to plan the visit around the smoking areas. It controls me; I can't control it.

According to my mother, who even had a lung transplant thanks to many many years of smoking and its effects - it doesn't stop.  You, howver, choose not to do them anymore.\n\nIt was a habit for you, something that was an intregal part  of your life, as much as your parents, spouse, child are part of your life.  You would never stop missing them; likely you will never stop missing cigarettes.\n\nSeems harsh, doesn't it?
