Answer 1

Shouldn't be in Singles & Dating category, but anyway...

Everytime you feel the urge to smoke, do something positive like sit ups or running around the block or putting the amount of money you'd spend for smokes in a bank. You kids will love you for it, also. I know, I was a long time smoker who quit 12 October 1988, cold turkey.

Answer 2

First you have to want to quit.
Second you have to try to quit.
Third if you restart you have to quit again and again and again until you get it done!
Remember, children who's parents smoke are most likely to take up smoking for themselves.
Work with your primary care doctor if you have one.
When your friends go out to have a smoke, don't join them until you are strong enough to resist temptation.

You need a support group. Someone you can call that will talk to you, not at you, when you wake up at 3 in the morning wanting a cigarette.

You can substitute exercise, water, and fruit for cigarettes.

You can quit cold turkey and just discipline yourself not to fail.

You can cut your current use in half each day or each week. 20 per day this week. 10 per day next week. And so on.

You can use gum or patch. You can use the new smoking cessation drug called Chantix (or something like that).

Good luck. I've watched a hell of a lot of people die from smoking related diseases over the last 25 years of my healthcare career. I wish you success for your own sake and for the sake of your children.

Answer 3

You can try all the stuff out there but if you want to quit you have to have will power just put them down I smoked for 15 years and one day I had enough I put them down and I have not smoked in 5 years

Answer 4

I want to know the same thing. I am also a mother of 4 and if I didn't smoke I would probably snap! Good Luck!
