Help with quitting smoking?!
Question:
Help with quitting smoking?
I'm struggling with quitting smoking. I'm using the patch, but it seems like I'm extremely irritable and can't control how cranky I am. I've been so snotty this last week that a lot of people have just told me to call them when I'm doing better and until then to leave them alone. My girlfriend is pissed at me(more than usual), too, and I've been very depressed(although there are more reasons for this than just quitting smoking). Does anyone have any suggestion for helping me deal with this?
Answers:
Eat better. Your body is detoxing right now & the extra nutrition can help.
Take B Complex 100 mg. & some ginseng, too. This should help with your moods.
Buy distilled water & drink it. It will help your body detox faster.
Go to health food store & buy the herb "lobelia". It tricks the body into thinking it has ingested nicotene while helping calm you down.
Place some healthy snacks around for you to much on & help with the hand/mouth addiction.
Identify your "triggers". Mine were: behind the steering wheel, when I had coffee & when I was on the phone. I put the snacks in those areas & that really helped.
