how did u quit smoking?!


Question: How did u quit smoking?
any secrets? im against taking pills and the patch doesnt work. aside from cold turkey and "not starting in the first place" how can i quit this nasty habit, or how did you leave nicotine in the rear view mirror?

Answers:

A couple of ways.

Don't tell yourself you will never smoke again...or you will...soon
Set an amount of time....like Spring Commit not to smoke for the entire length of Spring (Like March 20 - June 20 I think)
After you meet that, set another, you'll be past the worst of it already..go with summer...then go until the end of the year, then make it a New Year's resolution...and so on.

Another tip: Don't start at night! If you are out at a Bar, and absolutely MUST have a cigarette, get through the night, You went 2 weeks already, certainly you can get through 1 more night. Promise yourself you can have one in the morning if you absolutely must.
I think, in the morning you will be so proud of yourself that you wont have it.

Another thing...ask yourself "Who is in charge? You? or the Cigarettes?" If you are like me, you'll show them who's the boss.



chew sugarless gum, keep washed fruit and chopped veggies easily accessible, take a walk or exercise when you get a craving, just anything to occupy yourself,
Think of all the money you normally spend on cigs and start putting it aside, as you save reward yourself with a new shirt or a paperback or trip to the movies.
Good luck, it is difficult, but you can do it!



I have smoked off and on for many years (26 years). I just tell myself that I am done smoking after I finish the pack that I am on. I have never gotten addicted. I am one of the lucky ones and can quit when ever I want to.



"I have smoked off and on for many years (26 years)....... I am one of the lucky ones and can quit when ever I want to. I have never gotten addicted."

lol. 26 years of non-addiction? Do you realize how stupid you sound. We'll put that quote on your tombstone.
