Because I can't think of any other reason why someone would "want" to smoke, other than if he/she thinks it looks cool. I can understand someone being addicted and not being able to stop, but you said that you don't actually want to stop. I guess the yellow teeth, yellow fingers, diminshed lung capacity, smelly clothes, smelly car, smelly apartment, increased chance of lung cancer, throat cancer, and mouth cancer aren't enough of a deterrent for you.

Check out "The Easy Way to Quit Smoking" - book by Allan Carr. Some of it is slightly hypocrictial, and you have to get over the inevitable smug "how can a gay book make me quit?" attitude that every smoker has at first, but I've found much of it to be a real eye-opening dose of reality that slaps all of your lame excuses (re: why you smoke) in the face. Kinda therapeutic. So far so good for me after 2 weeks.

really? i'll check it out.

i want to say its more than just the addiction that prevents me from quitting though. im not quite sure what, i think i just enjoy smoking.

its really the only socially excepted form of suicide (slow, long and drawn out yes) out there.

My answer to every 'I want to quit smoking' thread I see in OOT:

Better living through chemistry.

i thought about prescription meds, but after experiencing the pitfalls of add/adhd medication, i have pretty much shyed away from drugs related to the brain/chemistry in the brain.

actually, this is patently false statement because if someone were to ask if would be down to do shrooms some weekend, i would say yes.

Switch cigarettes for something else - like crack. Once you start smoking crack, you wont even think about the cigarettes. Plus, if you are inclined to, you can lose a lot of weight on the crack-diet.
