Notices

Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now.

Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year.

I smoke when I'm very sad.
I think I do it to take my anger out.
I don't know why I'm taking it out on myself, but it seems to help
me to feel better.

I've been smoking since I was 12. Wish I could quit. Guess I'm just not ready yet.

Started at 15.....I know the health risks being a nurse...haven't quit yet....smoke outside and not around my son....maybe one day.
I was actually surprised....I thought there would be more here voting yes but it really has become socially looked down upon..IMO.

Nope. Tried a cigar once on the last day of high school, but I don't think that counts. I'm a bit of a health nut.

morgan, try chantix. I am almost certain your doctor will prescribe it to you, assuming it doesn't counter any other medicines you are on.

Love one in the morning that I roll myself with coffee. Maybe one in the evening too.
Noticed I'm starting to get those litte lines above my upper lip..

I'm going to just cut them out completely. Shouldn't be too hard.

Wow that is cool about the numbers.

I am trying to quit. I'm quitting for my health. (New Year's Resolution). But, I don't really want to. I'm so close though. Down to three cigarettes a day. Eliminated car smoking, lunch break cigarette, tomorrow I'm going for the morning coffee time. Pretty soon it will only be evening at home. Sitting at the computer ... Maybe by Saturday it will be my first non-smoking day.
