In my head less and less.
I got sick about 2 months ago and still have a lingering cough that WILL NOT fucking go away! Every morning in class I embarass myself by endless coughing benges, often interupting lecture. I cut down on cigarettes and weed but it seems like it wont help. I even moved to ultra lights and cut my smokign to half. Any recommendations on how to kill the cough without killing the habits?

Your "Smoker's Cough" should be all the motivation you need to quit cigarettes for good...try the patch...if I can quit, ANYONE can quit.
 
If you want to quit coughing you'll have to quit smoking. If you're coughing due to your cold that you had, the cough will probably eventually go awake, but it takes longer to get better when you're a smoker.

Ask almost any current smoker why she continues to indulge in such a dangerous activity and she will normally reply, "Because I like smoking." While she may say this in all honesty, it is a very misleading statement, both to the listener and to the smoker herself. She does not smoke because she enjoys smoking, rather she smokes because she does not enjoy not smoking.

I started smoking menthols over a year ago and my smoker's cough (as well as the death wheeze in bed) cleared right up.

I still want to stop smoking though, it sucks. :(
 
African Sea Coconut works wonders for smokers cough. You can only find it in a Chinese dispensary or shop tho. This is what ALL my smoker friends take when afllicted with even the littlest sore throat....it's the only medicine I take when I have a sorethroat , as well as when I used to smoke a pack a day. It's fucking amazing.

PS. Contrary to the name, this product has no coconut in it whatsoever ;) It tastes pretty good too. (Well....I like the taste of cough syrup lol..:p)
 
Before I started smoking heavily I had coughing fits that would keep me up at night. My doctor told me to try a Vitamin C regiment; I forget how much I took but after about 3 days my cough started clearing up and was gone in under a week.

Now 5 years into my smoking I get unproductive coughing fits in the morning; Vitamin C still clears it up, but it's hard for me to take it for a while because it does trauma to my digestive system, giving me endless diarrhea. It doesn't for most people, so maybe it will work for you.
 
I used to smoke Marlboro lights in college about a pack a day, more if getting loaded. Around '97 a girlfriend turned me on to Sampoerna Exclusives clove cigarettes. I know I know you only fags in high school smoked those things but they actually taste really good but I'm getting ahead of myself. I no longer have such a horrible cough from smoking. I'm not saying they are more healthy for you at all they have tobacco in them but it surely feels less hazardous. Don't believe the rumors about coughing up blood, patently false! Sampoerna starting making the exclusives wider like Camel Wide so I switched to Sampoerna Mild (they also make a menthol). Which they quit selling in the states but you can still order them online. Hope it helps somebody. Even my father switched to them and my new girlfriend as well.
 
there have been studies that vitamin D is very beneficial for healing your lungs and jsut smoking in genera.

I think you've got it backwards buddy. To my understanding, cloves are worse for you than your standard full-flavor.
 
If you get a vaporizer you can still use weed, but won't have to worry about the smokers cough anymore.
