Being that high and highly addictive it wasnt fun and im sure smokers here who smoke loads will easily understand and explain if asked how difficult it is to cut down and how easy it is to intake more...
You're smoking about 60 cigarettes a DAY? Does that mean you're continually chain smoking whenever you're not prohibited from doing so? :confused:
Non smoker here, though I've been raised by smokers and lived with them, though no one I know went through more than pack a day on a normal day (and a pack lasted most people I know a couple of days at the very least), but then most people I know were on a budget (and often with other expensive vices such as alcohol as well). (ETA: You know, I've never kept a careful count and it's possible the number of cigarettes smoked were downplayed, like by an ex of mine so that I wouldn't complain about the cost, and I've known people to go through a pack or so a day at times, but I presumed they were sharing their smokes with others when this happened.)
