Dont judge me because I sin differently than you.
If you want it sugar coated, dont ask me what i think! It would violate TOS.

It's one of the very hardest addictions to kick for economic factors as well: a packet of fags is a lot cheaper than a bottle of scotch, after all.


Good point. The poorer someone is the less money they have to spend on stop smoking aids.

A pack is 5 dollars. A pack of nicorette (which is just another form of nicotine and doing nothing to kick the addiction) can price out at 25 - 30

No.  I am not able to see the smoke thru the haze.  So I cant.

I'd favor similar laws here, including smoking indpprs with a child present. Smokers almost always value their addiction over anyone amd everything else.

Status: offline 		"Nicotine replacement therapy" is not therapy, it is just nicotine replacement. The most effective way to quit is cold turkey. I have never known anyone that quit through nicotine replacement. BTW, the cigarette companies are making money off these "therapies", also, they grow the tobacco from which they are derived.

I found this site REALLY helpful in getting information that was FREE about how to quit smoking.... It really gave me the knowledge of what was going on in my body through the quitting process and what I could expect through it. It also helped me know what I had to look forward to.
