| Anonymous Coward User ID: 35700948 Turkey03/07/2013 05:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Did you quit alcohol and tobacco at the same time after 40 years of consuming? Just do it and see what withdrawal is. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 35700948 Not as hard you think. Knew somebody who smoke and drank, when she learned she was pregnant, gave up drinking and smoking no problem. I hope so because I'm planning to do it this time. I tried once or twice, it wasn't easy but now I know what will happen and I think I can stand that for 2-3 days. |

But as mentioned, just from simply knowing she was pregnant, she gave up smoking and drinking cold turkey just like that, without any withdrawal or anything. Something to think about. |

User ID: 28505443 Australia03/07/2013 06:37 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Last month I decided that for 3 weeks I was going to give up something which I knew was going to be difficult to stay away from. So for 21 days I prayed and fasted the internet. By about 2 weeks in I was really struggling, it actually got harder instead of easier to stay away. I am addicted to researching and learning stuff from the internet, as well as having a means to communicate with others. One website I will never be a member of though is Facebook. To the world I am just a number, but the Lamb of God He knows me by my name. |
