have you worked out how much you spend on them per year? I know some of you don't smoke and some of you don't drink, but what do you spend on either if you do? Just worked mine out, 7,496 per year for the both, time to knock it on the head I think... * +

Maybe he smokes about 2 packs a day. They are more common than we like to think. * +

I neither smoke or drink these days, but i dread to think how much i spent in the past. They kept me so skint for so long, caused so many problems, it's embarrassing looking back. I'd spend so much time driving shitty auction cars, and fixing second hand stuff other people buy new, whilst living in a rented room on a diet of dry cider and spliffs.

I never really gave anything up. That's the secret to giving up. It's so much easier when you're doing something out of choice, as opposed to being forbidden - even by yourself. I never gave up smoking, i just haven't done it for years because it's shit. It's dirty, it stinks. Why would i? I'll have a Guinness with a meal, if out. I'll have a beer with friends at a barbecue. It's been months. Never gave it up, just doesn't happen.

The problem is habit. There are probably people out there spending all their money on gaming. Living a compromised life, satisfying an addiction. No difference, really.

Ultimately it's fine if these things are making you happy and you ain't hurting anyone. Just don't wait until regret makes you stop. * +

I don't smoke or drink, but I smoked a ton when I was in the Netherlands. (Both pot and cigarettes) socialization tended to start and end whilst smoking and drinking in college, or at least I thought anyway. Now it's been 2 years since quitting, from pack a day habit that began when I was 14 to zero... I started chewing one of those gums recently because of the immense boredom from quarantine. Can't say it's too bad. My brain's been laser focused, but it's such a waste of money. I will stop after exams. * +
