I've got a good one for you. I actually heard this one from a friend. You set certain times of the day to smoke. Let's say for example, you will have your first cigarette at 9:00 am. then you will not have another one until 12:00, then say 3:00 etc. I don't know how much you smoked, but a friend of mine did it like that and then you keep increasing the time span between the cigarettes.....pretty good idea i thought.

She was not a heavy smoker so her starting times were like 9, 12, 3, 6, 9 and then she went to sleep.

If you are a chain smoker you may want to try 15 min. intervals. Maybe get a timer.

Good luck

I would try 1800 quit also. Along with this you really need to decide that you really want to stop. I think the best way to do this is to immersse yourself in the truth about cigarette smoking. Read up on what organs it can effect, what the effects are, increase you fitness and consider how much smoking impeeds your progress. Know that once you stop your skin, face and hair with look more healthy and lovely. Remember that all non-smokers think your breath stinks. Try to decide that smoking was a phase that you now want to move forward from. Many many people have moved away from one bad habit or another, you just need to really choose it. Change your activities to ones where you and others will smoke less, that way you aren't tempted. Learn to love yourself and your body and decide that you want better for both of you.
Good luck. You have the strength inside of you......find it and nuture all the positive things you want for youself!

Quit cold turkey....do you want cancer or what?do you think your indestructable? is that pain in your stomach or chest making you curious about what it is? Have you seen black lung? Do you want wrinkled skin? Do you wanna die early? You'll regret even starting someday. Quit now and every year your free of cigarettes you'll feel better. If you fail try again. It's not easy. It toll me 3 tries. Smokefree for over 10 years. Smoking sux. Also, when you smoke you smell....you just dont know it...you really stink. After you quit you will see how much a smoker smells, not to mention yellow teeth and mouth cancer.

Answer 5

I have heard of some breakthroughs in breaking addictions with natural medicine.

NEAT doctors are the first step, my NAET allergist says sometimes we form addictions because of allergies to things, his office has seen some real miracles with kids that were on all sorts of 'hard' drugs, even cocaine. Soon after they are treated they don't want the addictive substance as much. Their brain function is returning to normal and one day they just stop old turkey and never pick up the habit or drug again.

Second step, cleansing. Cleansing should be done with a system that floods your body with nutrition while washing out impurities gently with high quality Aloe. I've tried a few but the one I started 2 weeks ago is the best. I'm feeling so good and I've lost 5 1/2 inches of fat in 2 weeks.

Ive also studied a herbal/mineral supplement called Kalmin made by Balance of Nature that supports brain function and severs the need for the addictive substance. It was specifically designed for addictions.

email anytime for more info on nutrition or natural subjects.

Answer 6

Ya know what? Just do it. Pick a date and just quit. It sounds difficult, but it's better than wasting your money on all of that other mumbo jumbo. Rewarding yourself helps too. For instance, set aside the money you would typically use to buy smokes, and then use it to buy something else...like shoes for instance.

It's not going to be easy. You are going to be bitchy and emotional and you may even start snacking a bit more, but it's totally worth it. Before long, you won't even miss it. You could try to brush your teeth a lot or chew / eat orange flavored gum / candy. That taste usually doesn't sit will with cigs.

Answer 7

this is what finally worked for me after trying everything under the son. There is a new medication on the market, recently approved. it's not like any of the others - it approaches a whole different aspect of addiction and trust me, it really works. it's called chantix and it works if you use it according to the directions. if had been taking it for about three weeks and then realized i hadn't even had a cig for two days. WOW. Along with that i would join one of the non smoking clubs on the internet. there are several that you join - for free and you find a buddy and then you have all these different groups you can talk to on line everyday. it's really neat. try it. Quitnet is my favorite and it has really helped alot. good luck

Answer 8

I heard there is a laser treatment to quit smoking.
Think how much money you are wasting on this cigarettes..
Go to google and type "what are the harm effects of smoking?".Please read the information carefully.
Try this one if you wish. Take a flash card and write "I want to quit smoking. It is injurious to health." Keep this flash card in your wallet. Whenever you have a chance to open the wallet the words remind you should quit smoking.
It is on your hands.
Divert your mind. Read books, make friends, do light exercises.

Answer 9

I have facilitated quit smoking support groups and I have quit smoking myself many years ago. I can tell you that there is no right way to quit smoking.

........ You just have to find the way that works for you. That may be going "cold turkey". it may mean gradually cutting down (a less successful approach). .. It may mean using the new medication that has come out over the past year called; " "CHANTIX" ... I have seen a number of individuals who were unable to quit previously,.. succeed at quitting when they used Chantix. ................ I am not one to recommend anyone take a pharmaceutical drug for any reason,.. but when it comes to quitting smoking, if a drug will help you to accomplish quitting,.. by all means do it. Smoking is a critical life and death issue.

See your doctor about Chantix and follow the instructions on how to use it. .... and find a good support system for you to help you succeed. ................. and whatever you do,.. don't forget a most important thing. ... When engaged in the challenge of quitting smoking,.. there is no such thing as failure. .. There is only giving up or continuing to pursue it until you succeed. ............ Most people who succeed at quitting,.. experienced a number of failures before they finally made it stick. ... You can do it.
