Smokers - reunite!

Any ideas how to quit smoking? I tried like 10 different ways so far...

Personal experience is more than welcomed here.

 

I heard that there is a chewing gum available.

 

That's an old way... for me it causes dizziness.

 

It's weired you say that. I usually smoke 20 a day.

I've had 1 in the last 3 days. My motivation to stop, and the best method: Become skint

 

That's great - one within 3 days. for around 6 pounds for a pack I would stop too. Here it's around 3 pounds.

 

I have not had a cig for 4 weeks the other week. I just quit cold turkey. I just got really angry at myself and thought that i can not have a little stick controlling my life. So i just quit. The worst thing about nicotine replacement is that... well... How can you quit something by taking more of it just in a different form?

Cravings don't last long. First few days are quite bad and then you should be fine. Just don't smoke.


-edit-

Another thing that helped. Go and find pictures on the net of people with lung cancer.

 

To me its just you who can stop smoking. But you must have a strong will/power to do so. I myself tried it but think I dont have such power. My Dad used to smoke and he quit after 25 years... I wish I could do so ...

 

take a hammer, wack every finger with it, if you can light one up after that, you'll never give up

 

try to chain smoke until you get so sick that you can't smoke no more. That's how i quit smoking

 

My friend quit cold turkey one day. I have not been so lucky yet.

 

I always succeed for several days (it happened three times so far) and then when something very good happens to me I buy a little cigar (only one)... from then on... it deteriorates.

I watched some lung cancer photos - it was awful but didn't help me.

My dad too, but after 40 years... now he is cleen for 5 years so far...

But then I won't be able to drive. I like it so much to lit a cigarrette while driving...

That's exactly what I'm doing... I smoke quit much.

Lucky that he has such a strong will power.

 

Start lifting weights

 

This is how one of my mates quit. For a year though...

 

I do that but not that much - 3 sets of 10 times each hand with a 7KG weight, daily.

I also started running after many years. I'm not good as I used to be in the past...

 

I was an extreme smoker, I've quit for a year and 8 months now

 

Well done! How?

 

Working out, eating properly, after awhile your body doesn't like any 'crap' you feel like shit from even seeing, thinking or smelling a cigarette, or grease for that matter.

Have goals, chew gum, will power.

 

Just decide and quit smoking .....

 

Yeah it's that easy
