Nah, god damn is not really an Aussie expletive. Where more into the "bloody hell" (same issue though) or "fu#k me" or "fu#kin' hell". Good luck with learning to be a non-smoker. Keep practising as it's worth it. I have 5 siblings, 3 smoked, the same 3 have had cancer.

I often god-damn things. When I’m particularly frustrated I add extra vulgarity, “god f$&king DAMMIT!!”

I'm an Australian, so we definitely have a different relationship with the word 'cunt' to you guys in the States.

I use it all the time even though I'm an Atheist. It's just a swear like any other.

I curse like a sailor, so my answer would be yes, especially when I'm exasperated.

If you are going to smoke do it outside in fresh air.

I swear every dog damn day. I can control it and try to keep quiet. However, as long as I am mumbling and talking to myself everything is OK it is when this stops everyone has to worry. When I get quiet something is wrong. The only person I get mad at is myself. I am the only one I am responsible for in this manner.

As I watched my dog run in front of a speeding car (entirely my fault) I screamed that...I knew she was a goner.

I do it all the time.

Goddamn right I do, btw cussing on a regular basis is a sign of high fucking intelligence . So have at it..

The only time "God damn" comes from my mouth is when "goddamn motherfucker" rolls nicely of my tongue right after I've hit my thumb rather than the nail and other similar situations.

On those rare occasions I use it, it is as an expletive. Just like throwing an equally rare f-bomb. No religious meaning whatsoever.

Good luck with your stopping smoking.

Never had the cigarette habit. My downfall was food. Mom hooked me on unhealthy choices, and it was a bitch switching...each favorite food is another habit. It has taken several years to dislike some foods after swearing off (e.g., hamburgers). I am having more difficulty with potato chips.

If you celebrate a week free of cigs by having one, enjoy that one, don't beat yourself up. Then do another week, celebrate again, and when you are ready, go free for two weeks.

You’re doing brilliantly. Three weeks is forever. I gave up after three attempts several years ago. You can’t turn back now. I found after six weeks it was done. No more smoking!

Keep it up. It’s a major lifetime’s achievement!

I had a heroin addict fresh out of detox tell me "straight up quitting smoking is worse than quitting heroin". I've read a lot of articles that claim the same.

I'd suggest some chocolate covered nuts for the really bad points. The nuts will help offset the sugar in the chocolate. The chocolate is good for cravings.

Swear all you like - it should help. Avoid doing so around small children. (I keep trying to point this out to a friend this makes them cuss more... ).

It gets better. Try eating a piece of fresh fruit or veggie - you are going to be stunned by the taste factor. Remember to reward yourself for not backsliding. This is hard!

But obviously a bunch of us survived doing it and lived to tell the tale.

Oh Freedent gum... I chewed packs and packs. I quit that too eventually.

feel free to curse as needed. remember, when you say "oh shit" you are not asking anyone to defecate. when you goddamn something you are not being any more literal than that. it's just a sound that helps you get through a tough spot.
