      yeah...quitting smoking was tough that first week..after that it was a piece of cake. Coffee on other hand I think would be tough to give up.

        It will be 2 weeks tomorrow since my last cigarette. Cold turkey. This is about the 50th time I have 'quit' in the last 4 years. I really hope I can stay away from nicotine once and for all this time. When you're a pack a day smoker and you go cold turkey, the first few weeks are fukin terrible. I always get sick, i'm mean, tired, and depressed.

          I was a 2 pack a day smoker, and I quit cold turkey back in January of this year. The first week was pretty bad. I was just an asshole to everybody; constantly cranky. But I stuck to it, and now I can't believe I ever smoked cigs to begin with. I did use weed as a crutch when the cig cravings got to be too strong, so that helped out alot.

                  Use to take caffeine pills a while back for a decent period of time. Never bothered me when I stopped, everyone's different though. I don't get caffeine or nicotine withdrawals really, some headaches but headaches don't bug me much.

                      The two go so well together though, Id have to quit both at the same time.

                                A cousin told me he doesn't get caffeine withdrawal. If I was so lucky, I would consume quite a bit of it, I would think.

                                    Those of you struggling with trying to quit a substance, look seriously into tapering off instead of cold turkey stopping. Will power has been studied to be a limited resource, although replenishing, and you shouldn't quit cold unless your circumstances will support you and not further draw on your will power.

                                      Didn't get the withdrawals but messed with my anxiety and heart.

                                        True! Caffeine withdrawal can involve some nasty headaches. THC maybe depression or a /sorry I forget.

                                              Well, caffeine is actually addictive, THC isn't... So... Clearly caffeine.
