When I cold-turkey quit a 3-pack a day habit years ago, I also had to give up drinking and pizza at the same time until I fully kicked the smoking habit. The three always seemed to go hand in hand with each other. It was rough for a few weeks, but now I can walk into a bar or a room full of smokers and not feel any temptation to light up again.
Any substance dependancy is a weakness whether it be coffee or it be pot. If you NEED something on a regular basis or feel anxious or lost when you're going without, you're an addict whose life is controlled by that substance, regardless of how you try to rationalize your addiction.

Great advice!

Besides, once ingesting a particular substance becomes a matter of regular run-of-the-mill habit, it quickly loses its sense of being a special enjoyable pleasure. And when it becomes an outright must-have addiction, it becomes a millstone around your neck.

quitting smoking cigarettes FTMFW!!!
I quit like 4+ years ago and I don't miss it one bit. I do however splurge on a nice cigar once in a while, but I don't inhale.
I smoked for 8 years, a pack a day, what a waste of money.

This is a discussion/argument/debate. The whole point of COMMUNICATION. Never take anyone's words too seriously.
This is where we learn from thoughts and opinions. There is always a point of change and understanding.
