No way will cigarette withdrawals make a person feel anything close to the hell a person goes through when withdrawaling from hydrocodones. And I did cocaine for about 3-4 months, every day or at least every other day, then I just quit. No Problem. No withdrawals. I don't understand how people get addicted to cocaine. But that's just me. But I took one drag off my 1st cigarette and was addicted BAM, just like that! BAM! I quit when I joined the Army, for 19 weeks. Then started again. Been smoking ever since. Damn...17 Years! wow i did not realize it been so long wow ... I gotta get off these Tramadols, so I can stop smoking! LOL.
Ok, so I smoke cigarettes too. I smoke about an average of 15 cigarettes per day. 10-15 per day. But I'm not even thinking about quitting. I have to quit my Tramadol addiction first. Then I'll stop smoking! I don't drink or do any other drugs though.
I'm actually opposite for whatever reason; i only craved Cigs when i was on Meds. When i didn't take them or ever since I quit Vic's 3 weeks ago, i dont crave Cig's. Weird i guess.
me TOO. 5 months until 30! ugh...
I really really want to quit smoking too but dont see that happening anytime soon... I am smoking less as w/d makes the cigs taste horrible. The want to quit is much more prevelant that the actual thought that I am going to quit sometime soon -- which I really want to do before my 30th b-day next year..
sure wish I would've done it at the same time. ooops... :(
The only reason I smoked as much as I did was every time I would pop 5 or 6 pills, I would smoke about 1/2 pack of cigarettes, I was up to about 2 packs a day. I quit smoking the same day I quit taking pills, so I honestly don't know how to compare the two w/d's, I kind of lumped it all into one lovely experience (kidding) =)
my wd from smoking was nothing compared to coming off of tramadol.I quit two years ago and have not smoke since.
the cigs will be the third thing to go for me. first the hydros (done), then the xanax (tapering now), and then cigs. I smoke at least a pack a day. I've never tried to quit, not even ONCE over the last 13 years...ugh.. I'd love to hear some feedback on this too! Maybe it is easier than I think it will be?!
