Codl Turkey Drawing
So after a couple hours without smoking I thought I should keep up with drawing, well not the best idea, hands were shaking like there's no tomorrow, patience was running thinner than spidewebs, but I thought I'd pick something easy at least. This was basically a mix of 3 references, I'm sure most of you know where these characters are from. I was initially planning on placing a Steem logo on the hat and darkening the eyes and adding some shadows but after my first failed attempt (the picture under this one) it just felt like it was impossible and I kept craving nicotine more than ever. Now I'm gonna hit a cold bath and see if that helps cool me down a bit from the way I am feeling right now. More updates on my codl turkey soon. Prepare your eyes to bleed when checking these drawings out. PS! Ash' head looks like Stewie from Family Guy or Hey Arnold!

2 hours of not smoking? I thought at first you wrote weeks🤣
Been like 3 I think and already starting to feel it, was smoking way too much before that
Hang in there, man. If you run out of patience to draw, go for a walk to a beach if there's one anywhere near where you live. Listening to the waves will calm you down.
Gonna try stay confined in the bath for a bit now, god help me to get sleep tonight xD
Bro, I have quit smoking multiple times so I definitely feel your pain! The way I finally kicked it last time (which was about 2 years ago) was to convince myself to HATE everything about smoking*. Hate that it controls you, hate the smell in your clothes/house/car, hate the taste, hate that you have to pay for it daily even though it gives you cancer and makes you feel like shit, hate that you are to weak to say no, and hate that it is a crutch in your life!! You have to rewire your brain manually, so saying the words out loud that you HATE it will help you to distance yourself from it. Keep extremely busy with activity for a week (don't sit around the house or do things that you usually smoke to, like watcthing tv, drinking alcohol or driving). And remind yourself how amazing you will feel when the withdraws are over. It's seriously all a mind game, don't let it beat you!
I have beat addictions to opioids, cocaine and alcohol the same way, its seriously mind over matter... Make a decision and don't turn back... If you want a few more pointers or someone to talk to about beating this shit hit me up on discord, I'd be glad to help out a friend.. If not just keep on keeping on, YOU GOT THIS SHIT BRO! :0)
Lol please go for that nicotine, you'll find that motivation to go, it's definitely not bad I think it's not nsfw like yesterday lol so it passes hahaha
lol that's helpful
Great go for it, hahahaha
Not bad, but why didn't you color it?

I'd respond but you probably wouldn't read that either
Oh, so if I am not wrong it's a pre completed drawing?

I believe strongly as time goes on, it will grow from 2 hours to days, weeks and month of quitting smoking

That's a great trial. Am sure next time you will add tones and textures to make it look more beautiful.

I found smoking pot helped a ton with quitting smoking cigs. Everytime I wanted a smoke, I smoked a joint... Sure you will be ridiculously high for a few weeks (lol) but the cravings are nearly as bad.. Just saying... ;) Good luck bro!
Wish I could but it's not legal here and probably impossible to score some.
Are you on smoke.io? I curate there daily.
Ohhh, that sucks! Shit should be legal everywhere, it's stupid it's not..
No, im not on smoke.io, I dont like to advertise that I grow cuz its not legal where I live either since I moved last year.
I used to post a decent amount of grow stuff on my steemit page before I moved but that was like 18 months ago, well before smoke.io was a thing..
Stay strong and keep thinking of the benefits you will receive once you've stopped smoking. Try to break your actual habits and try something new, to break the connection of smoking and boredom or other activities.
Thanks, trying super hard. Not smoking when I woke up today was harder than holding Steem at $6.
Oh, man! Awesome! I didn’t know you were an artist and comic fan as well, @acidyo! Love this! You should draw more!✍🏻
Yeah gonna try, hopefully with less shaky hands soon too! @hiddenblade has been reminding me to draw more :P
well yeah if you don't jerk off 10x a day maybe your hands will be less shaky :p
Hard to stop when you keep sending me nudes ;)
Stop begging then
Easier to quit cigs tbh
This one was shortly after I had gone cold turkey though, check out the "nsfw" one from a few days ago. :D
This is cute! All the best in your "cold turkey" journey
And Damn I don't remember Stewie having a full head of hair but he looks good though//no
Nice drawing but i think 23$ is a bit much. 😉

I agree, this one sucked too.
