Both my husband and myself smoke. I’ve wanted to quit for a while, but the cost of stop smoking aids are ridiculous. However, the cost of tobacco increased recently, and even my husband, who is a die hard smoker, the one who has always said that he doesn’t want to quit at all, said it might be time for us to stop smoking soon.

I’ve tried the patch, two different pills, and will power and none of them have stuck. Next I would like to try electric cigarettes. I’ve read quite a few blog posts reviewing them, as well, people have been talking about and linking to them on facebook lately. It seems like a good solution to break the habit – at least the nicotine habit – I dunno if it will work for the physical habits.

For example, When the phone rings, the moment I realize it is for me, I head to the counter and begin to roll a smoke. If my cigarette is finished before the phone call, Without even thinking I have rolled myself another one and have it lit – and this is no small thing becuase we smoke outside, I have to put out my smoke, go inside, roll another one and go back outside!

Smoking is damn bad for me, I KNOW that, and I would like to quit, but omg the cravings, the habits I’ve built around them. They will be hard to break!
