Help to Quit Smoking?

Question

Any Advice would be appreciated.

Answer 1

I'm probably going to get a lot of thumbs down for this but I found the easiest time I had quitting was when I changed everything. I had just graduated college so I was moving out on my own, changing from school to work, moving away, everything basically changed and smoking was just another one of those things I left behind.

It's harder to remove smoking from your routine than to remove smoking from a new routine but changing your entire routine can for some people be stressful and thus lead to smoking. So I don't know if this applies for you but if you can change lots of things, especially those things you do around the time you are used to smoking then you might find it easier to just not include smoking in the new routine.

Answer 5

A lot of people try to quit by cutting back gradually. But it doesn't work most times, because those cigarettes are always there whispering for you to go ahead and have another one.

Quit cold turkey. Then start cleaning your house to get the smell of the cigarette smoke out- and believe me, it is strong!

Get involved in a bunch of things to keep your mind occupied. If you MUST have something to put in your mouth, keep a pack of chewing gum with you.

The first week or two will be very hard because your body will crave the nicotine- and at the same time, it will be starting to clean the toxins out. But hang on: It will pass, and you will feel a whole lot better.

Good luck!

Answer 7

When I quite smoking, it took me three times before I finally stopped for good. My suggestions are to drink lots of water, especially when you are craving a cigarette, as it helps to rid your body of the toxin faster. Getting a perscription from your doctor for medication that helps with the urges is also very helpful, and contacting a stop smoking helpline is another way to get help, as well as getting encourgment from friends and family and staying busy so there is not a lot of time to think about having a cig. When the urges get really strong call a friend or the stop smoking helpline. Decide on a quite date, mentally prepare yourself, and then go for it.
If you relapse, dont give up, just keep trying, and you will make it.

Answer 8

I quit for medical reasons about 2 years ago. my doctor gave me a prescription generic for Zyban AND he suggested that I do the patch at the same time. Where most patients would try one and have it not work, then try another and it wouldn't work. He suggested I do both at the same time as he had reccomended to other patients. It took me about 3 weeks and I have to say, it was a cakewalk. Obviously, everyone is different it might not be that easy for everyone. And talk to your doctor first to make sure it won;t interfere with any other medications.

I actually had the very beginning stages of cervical cancer (HPV) and I quit smoking and it went away. Good luck, hope this helps!

Answer 10

What worked for me was this:

I just waited until I really wanted a smoke before having one. I would think "A cigarette would be good." Then wait a little while, then think "No really, I would like a cigarette." Then when I really really wanted it I would have it. I didn't set any goals for myself beyond just not wanting to smoke so much. I started out smoking first thing in the morning, and gradually got to where I didn't even think of it until lunch, then even later in the day. Then I just stopped altogether.

Also, don't smoke in your car, don't smoke in your house. Paint the walls or something so you won't want to mess it up.

Finally make sure people know you're trying to quit. That way they will be supportive, or at least tease you if you do have one. You may want to get your doctor involved.

Good luck and keep trying! You can do it!
