Answers:
Well, you're still pretty young and my guess is that you haven't been smoking for too long!. I would have to say "cold turkey" is the best way to quit!. Everyone that I have known that has been a smoker has quit cold turkey and they were successful!. Most of these people have been smokers for over 20 years, to say the least, so it shouldn't be that difficult for you if you really want to quit!. That's also another difference with the people I've known that have quit!. They WANTED to!. Someone else wasn't asking them to do it, their doctor wasn't lecturing them, they weren't getting dirty looks in public-- they simply had just had enough!. If you want to quit badly enough, then you will!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

First- stop with the reds and switch to lights!. Best to quit when there is change in your normal routine- this way you don't have the same breaks or same influences to make you crave a smoke!. School is letting out soon and it will be summer, I'm sure your daily routine will change, so a good time to quit!. Surround yourself with non smokers for a bit!. Try to reduce the number you have in a day!. Try picking up a new habit that's healthier- like snacking on sunflower seeds!.

If your lungs hurt, you may have asthma- that is what got me to quit!. After a few years of smoking, I had a really bad asthma attack one night and it scared me enough to not ever buy another pack again!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Go little by little!. only smoke one or 2 a day!. Quieting is hard so have a friend or someone close to you help you!. If you want to smoke more call that person and have them talk you out of it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can't just stop cold turkey!. Cut to one a day, or just turn to something you enjoy doing when you crave a cigarette!. Nicorette may work well too,Www@Answer-Health@Com
