What are you addicted to?

ice cream

Nicotine gum, ten years now.

Listening to Latin/Portuguese folk music; hiking/hills (flatlands make me nervous!); making an herbal smoothie every morning; Trader Joe's cream-top yogurt; any kind of cheese; playing Scrabble with my computer as opponent; reading in the sunshine; the Internet.

caffeine, nicotine, food, hydroxycut advanced, exercise and sunshine.
I used to be addicted to sex, alcohol, meth, and the internet.

Has anyone used the patch to quit smoking? I want to quit!!!!!!!

crackers

I don't know if you'd really call liking the computer, an addiction, but I do spend too much time on the computer.

Computer, Zune, Poker, My wife and family............. (not in that order) I gave up smoking so thats not an issue

I used gum,....... but TBH, I know its trite but you have to WANT to for it to work... its been 7 months so far and have not had any real difficulties and I was a 20 per day person....... My wife ironically still smokes hard 20+ a day and it does not bother me

Have you calculated how much $$ you've saved?

I have saved a little, remember I am part owner of a Duty Free Tobacco store.............................

caffeine

I'm pretty sure I'm not the first one to say this, but here it goes. Survey Central.

breathing, cigarettes, Twinkies, Twizzlers, cats, SC

bass

TV, sugar, playing Solitaire on my iPhone, reading.

a-wo-a-wo-o

Internet, games, pinball, personal habits, etc.

Sugar, chocolate, meat, playing, video games, and a few others

worry

technology

I think I am addicted to being well. I suffer wellness withdrawals when I am sick. Fever, dizziness, congestion, fatigue...

Nicotine.

> Has anyone used the patch to quit smoking? I want to quit!!!!!!!

I used it back in 1999. I managed to stay off cigs for about six months after discarding the patches. But....

I wanna quit!!!!!!!!

Have you looked into Chatpix? It sounds too good to be true, but I know people who used it and they were succesfullin quitting. It does have a lot of nasty side effects which is what stops me from considering it.

There's also Wellbutrin, but I would't go there.

My father in law started that Chantix crap, three days later he died in his sleep from massive heart failure. A month later, another friend died of a heart attack who had recently started using that crap. I say stay away from it.

I heard people who take it and get all suicidal. There is a TV commercial running for a law firm that is trying to start a class action law suit against people whose loved one killed themselves or died because of the drug.

I know my old boss used it to quit smoking and she experienced no side effects. She is a huge promoted of the drug.

If I was going to use one drug to quit another, I would probably try quitting cigs by way of a few carefully planned ayahuasca rituals. But then I'm just an old hippie acidhead anyway.

I'm going to use what I used to quit drinking.....prayer.
Wish me success

Good luck!

I've quit once for a year and a half and it wasn't that bad.

Food

I'm not an addict.

> I'm not an addict.

I always remember a SC post you said once (don't know why) when you stated that you need at least two hours on your own after you wake up drinking coffee before you can face anyone.

I don't consider that an addiction.

> I don't consider that an addiction.



Aren't rationalizations wonderful?
