Quit smoking

@Unvers
Awesome idea. Go for it. You can do it.

 

Using a highly addictive substance that is full of bad chemicals and shortens your lifespan greatly and cause multiple chronic conditions is probably not the best way to treat depression.

Much as I hate pharmaceutical cos. you'd be better off taking Chantix or whatever that smoking cessation drug is. I believe it's also prescribed for depression/anxiety.

 

It does not help expression. It simply provides a way to not deal with stress just like PMO does.

I smoke a pack a day from 16 to 30. Was depressed several times even while smoking.

 

Smoking doesn't actually help with depression. Just like porn doesn't help with depression.

When you're depressed your brain is getting very little dopamine. So you try to self medicate, you do activities that will give your brain dopamine so that you feel better. Like watching porn, binge eating food, smoking cigerettes. They make you feel better temporarily but they don't solve the underlying problem.

Continuing to do activities like watching porn, binge eating and smoking will make you feel better whilst you're doing them but they actually just make the problem worse. You're giving your brain dopamine and then when you try to stop you just feel even worse than when you started. Because now you have nothing to give you that dopamine. The only way back to getting better is to stop the self medicating and to face your problems head on. In time things will get better.

 

Tobacco smone makes me horny. That's why I save it for the bar. I'll end up spooging myself before I hit the sheets.

 

I have smoked for 14 years, last six was over a pack a day. I smoke more when I am alone or in a bad mood but usually chain smoke when I am depressed. I recently decided to quite smoking again to coincide with the start of NoFap and have been pretty successful so far. I usually try to quit smoking a few times a year and this is the first time I have gone cold turkey. For the first three days I had the worst depression I think I have ever had but it was manageable and went away. While I have failed the Nofap I am still going strong with not smoking.i did not go about the first few days in the best way possible as I isolated myself during a long weekend and binged Netflix. This would normally lead me to relapsing when I go back to work on Monday but this time it was a cake walk. Not sure if it was the NoFap that help but what ever it is I'll take it. 2-3 cigarettes a day is probably just as hard to quit as a pack so I wish you all the best and hope you quit before you catch up to me.

 

Listen to music instead, or get
Do a hobby, to get a kick. At least then you aren't harming your body

 

Never chain your addictions if you must do two bad habits don’t join them bro your brain will be damaged by time and you well chain smoke to masturbate I’m 31 yrs old I were a chain smoker for the past 15 yrs I used to smoke about 3 packs per day with 20 cigs per pack used although to drugs some alcohol with Pmo every time I get drunk or stoned I watCh porn although I couldn’t masturbate without a cigarette for now I give up drugs smoking alcohol for 6+ months and Porn for 22 days and I still crave for alcohol and porn

 

Smoking is very bad habit and it also causes many uncured diseases.

 

Smoking tobacco just smokes your lungs
