How to Quit Smoking.

Very useful guide.

 

I like smoking though, not just cause I'm addicted, but it feels good, and cures boredem at times, though not for long, meh.

 

a lot of people say that at first.

 

thats the addiction

i used to say this too, its bullshit. You are addicted

 

Very good, I've been thinking about to quit for a long time now. Let's get started. My biggest problem with smoking is my teeth and the money that I waste on smoking.

I'll do my best to quit, and will come back to this thread in a month and tell you the good news if I make it ^^

 

Haha don't be discouraged if you fail
From what I've heard, the majority of people fail at first

I myself, failed at quitting two times

 

I want to quit smoking like mad, i will try and remember these step's for when i next try.. which will be soon.

Not letting those pesky things ruin my life any more.

 

I'll try this, I smoked weed for 8 months then replaced it with cigarettes, I find it hard to quit because when I go a few hours without one I go insane, I find it hard to quit, would the electrical type of cigarettes be a good idea to have too?

 

take wellbutrin. youll never want a cigarette again

 

I don't get addicted. I've smoked for 3 years, yet I've stopped for a month+ before, but I started again not because I needed to, but because I liked the taste. Anyone can stop if they try.

 

Would also like to state having a titration plan from whatever your smoking now down to eventually zero is something I found highly effective.
I was smoking a pack a day and decreased by one cigarette a day down to the 10-12 range then every few days would decrease by another one until I eventually stopped smoking at all. Might not work for everyone but its kind of the same with how people treat drug addictions slowly weaning there self off of it.
Hope this may help someone.

 

Im actually trying to quit smoking...again. hopefully these tips might help.

 

It's just all down to will-power. I quit a few months a go now. One afternoon I recieved a phone call that my boss had got lung cancer, not touched a cig since. Take it from me THIS IS FROM EXPERIANCE. You will have heard this before but it's honestly the truth. The more you think about it the more you want one. The idea is to keep yourself occupied, if you do this & you actually want to quit then your sorted. I am personally really proud of quitting, it's a really good self achievement and feeling when you quit. I've told every fucker I know lol

 

Check it out. My dad died this morning from smoking too many cigarettes. I'm in the process of trying to quit. Thanks for supporting quits.

Also, js, not even lying.

 

Some of my friends could really use this.

 

Good tips. They make a mouth spray now and in 1 squirt you get your niccotine fix which i think is a better way to ease cravings then to wear a 16 hour patch or one of those e-cigarettes. I wish they would create a non-odorous ciggarette that smokers use.

 

Is smoking worse than runescape?

 

Had to stop midway through this guide to light up a smoke, all this talk about it and all.

Lol no but really this was a really great guide, glad to hear you were able to break your addiction. I have been smoking since I was 13 years old, almost 8 years ago. Addictions are tough, but if you have enough will to quit, you can drop any addiction.

Also, shame on you grave diggers lol

 

Am I the only one to say that this guide is terrible?
I've had some terrible ideas myself but this really tops it up for me as well.

People who've had drug addictions, and nicotine is a drug, say they've had more trouble quitting smoking than they did quitting harder drugs (ei heroin, crack, meth, alcohol, and this is speaking from experience although I've never actually attempted to quit smoking, I know loads of people who have) So to say "tease yourself" is just the dumbest thing i've ever heard. Would you tell a heroin addict to put a needle infront of himself full of the drug and see if he's able to resist. Same thing for smoking. When you're first trying to quit you need to avoid smoke and cigarrets like the plague, because you WILL light one up if you get your hands on it.

Talk to yourself is a bit vague, you should have expanded on that because sometime its not enough just saying to yourself "dont do it, its bad for you".

As for drink water, eh, I've never heard that, you're on the right track though, its substitute smoking with chips or candy. They may not be particualrily good for you as it is junk food, but they will keep your hands and your mouth busy, almost simulating the smoking action and slowly weaning yourself from that habbit. With water you can only drink say a cup or two, but candy or chips can last you hours, so everytime you feel the urge you take a chips and eat it.

I'm sorry if this was harsh, but as an actual smoker, I don't find this AT ALL helpful and I'm sure no one would be able to quit smoking with this guide.
Glad you quit though I suppose. Congrats on that.

 

Random Fact: some scientists in Brazil have discovered that quitting smoking before 40 erases damage to health. So basically you can still smoke as long as you stop before the age of 40, fuck da police.
