Re: Whats your brand of Cigarettes?
I smoked too. In Russia I smoked Parliament. In Canada - Belmont Milds, because there is no imported cigarettes here. Started when I was 7 and smoked on and off until 26. That's growing up in Russia for ya. Now I am quit for good.

Re: Whats your brand of Cigarettes?
Back in the day, I used to smoke Black Death Cigarettes
I remember paying about $2.50 a pack for them and this was in the 90s. The look on someone's face who wanted to bum a cig from me was priceless.
Now I stick to the Pyramid cigs...
When I see the Newport ones, reminds me of when I was in high school and everything had to be a damned acronym...
NEWPORT = Never Eat Wet Pussy On Rag Time

Re: Whats your brand of Cigarettes?
My Mom smoked three packs a day. Now she has emphysema and is chained to an oxygen bottle by a plastic tube. I've an uncle who suffered from pulmonary disease probably brought on by smoking, got heart bypass surgery and died of a heart attack a few years later. His never managed to quit. I never started. I'm waiting 'til they legalize weed.

Re: Whats your brand of Cigarettes?
For me it felt harmless to have one smoke here or there when out with friends. Then one turned out to be three or four when we were partying.
Even then I didn't feel addicted yet and I could go without smoking for a few weeks and not notice. But when something very stressful happened in my life I went right to cigarettes for comfort. Nothing else could help me forget about my problems for a moment like smoking did. I must have smoked 2 packs in a day just to keep my mind off of things. Then I was addicted and it would take a huge effort to quit a few years later. I was taking smoke breaks at work just to deal with the stress from small things in life. It was a crutch. I'm glad I was able to quit eventually because i could feel that it was affecting my health in a bad way.

Re: Whats your brand of Cigarettes?
Alcohol is terrible when you try to stop. I just couldn't have a drink without huge cravings. But I think the morning coffee was even worst! And also the after meals! God! I felt sooooooooo much like smoking a few after dinners! Stopping would not have been so bad without these particular moments...
I had a constant pain in the throat in a very precise spot and my voice was changing. Yet, it was not enough for me to stop. I must have kept smoking at least on more year with this. The birth of my kid was the wake up call. I blew up like a balloon, but the energy level (even sexual) when right up the roof.
I started thrice after along the years, the last time in 2010, for 10 or 11 months, but always stopped again...
Nicotine is an adictive lady.
