When does a quitter become a non-smoker?
Jump to: Newest in thread
So...a week and a half of the fags, I think it's probably tempting fate, and definitely too early to change the profile from "smoker" to "non-smoker"...but at what point do you reckon it becomes acceptable? |

Some people class E-Cigs as still being a "smoker".
It's one of the hardest things to actually give up, I can go for months without a drink, but take ma roll ups away from me and you are a dead man  |

Nah, the quit smoking clinic have given me patches and some thing that makes it look like I've developed some weird tampon-sucking fetish  |

I’d say a couple of days . Any smell will have gone and your skin and breath won’t smell of fags .
Why people are saying six months is beyond me . The fact is you are a non smoker from the moment you stub out that last fag . |

£10 a packet ,if you smoked a packet a day , your £600 better off already .

or most importantly 172 pints of lager. |

I'm a non smoker for a few days every fortnight, purely because I can't afford to buy any more tobacco, I have had numerous opportunities to kick the , but even though I know what damage it does, I can't seem to let it go  |

You can go a couple of days without smoking? Well your on your way to quitting surely? I'd just not buy anymore.
I'm on champix. I haven't stopped altogether yet but cut right back. I just need to change my routines and I'll have nailed it! |

I would say you can change your profile to non smoker after a couple of days, when you no longer smell of fags and wouldn't be smoking before or on a meet.
Well done on quitting - i gave up last August and it's one of the best things I've done, plus I'm over £2k better off  and it is SO much nicer kissing non-smokers! |

I tried that champix initially, cos my old dear (who's always been a proper chain smoker - lighting one as the other gets stubbed out) managed to quit for a bit on them, and I figured if they can work for her they can work for anyone.
So that week, I'm feeling really weird. Like "everything is shit" kind of weird, and I don't know why - nothing bad has happened, I've not been being horrible to myself, but everything seems really shit. Friday morning, literally as I'm putting the tablet in my mouth, I realise there's a correlation between me feeling that way and taking these tablets, and figure I should probably read the blurb that comes with it. It says 1 in 10 feel nauseous, but no problems there. 1 in 100 have mood swings, depression and suicidal thoughts..."Ahhh!" says I - not been taking them since! |

Haven't read the thread sorry, I may just be repeating this:
You know when you stub a fag out? That's when you become an ex smoker |
