    My smoky confession
    "My name is xxxx. I am a smoker. I am thinking of quiting my 18 year old smoking habit. Made several attempts. Nothing seem to work. Like to hear some nasty words on smoking from you guys so I can hate it."

    While smoking , pay full attention on smoke and feel about the harms of smoking.

    Do it each and every time while smoking.

    Hope it will help ;)

    Thanks !

    I quit smoking for good probably about 6 months ago. Though I will enjoy an occasional cigar. Them you don't inhale you see.

    I quit it 7 years ago. I got flu and was so sick that I couldn’t walk. Only thing I was getting up was to get some smoke. Then I saw how stupid I’m, and quit it for good.

    Quit for a few days, you'll find that after several days, the next ciggie you smoke will go down horrible, make you dizzy and a bit nauseous. Do that often enough and you should be able to quit.

    If your gonna smoke, at least get high from it. On a more serious note, exercise more and you will find you will crave smoking less.

    Well yeah it does, at least I found. The fitter you become, it just naturally makes you crave smoking less.

    I went from smoking 3 plus packs a day, to not smoking at all.

    Working out has helped greatly. When you workout you do not feel like smoking, smoking/drinking, etc is like poison to you............

    Are we talking about tobacco, right?

    Well i smoke since i was 15 (i'm 22 now), but i managed to quit two times.
    1st time: because of a bet. I'm kinda hard-headed and i always like to be right. So my brother told me that i couldn't quit smoking, i told him that i could if i wanted to, he proposed me to bet, so i told him that from the next day, i would quit smoking.
    After 8 months of clean lungs, depression made me start smoking again (i smoked 48 cigarrets that night, then i continued with my healthy dose of 20-day)
    A couple of months later, i promised to the girl i used to love (ironically, the one that made me depress and start smoking again) that i'd quit. And i did, but i felt like it was harder than the 1st time.
    Eventually (6 months later) she screwed me again, and i started smoking again.
    Now i feel like quitting, but i know my life sucks, so since it seems harder to quit every time you start smoking again, i want to wait until my life get a little bit better (if it ever does) to not start again and had that stupid habit forever.
    But is possible to quit if you want...

    * Collect the remaining part of all the cigarettes that you smoke and fill it in a jar. Keep it in your room so that you can see it everyday. Slowly, you will collect hundreds of cigarettes and you will realize how much damage you are doing to your health.

    * Ask yourself some questions about smoking everyday. You will feel embarrassed and it might work for you. :D

    * Try meditation. It surely works. :)

    If you can do it twice, you could do it again. Hope you make it again, for good.
