Do you have any tips for quitting smoking?
when you feel like smoking eat something else but not junk food like healthy stuff and pray to God to help you and God bless you!
I am on day fifteen and have smoked for 17 years, it is a hard process, I am on the patch and that helps immensly, you get crazy dreams on it but you wil be able to breathe so much better. Your mood will be al little harsher so if you are already a complete **** head you might want to find spirituality at the same time. It's not easy but you smell so much better and food tastes so much better. Good luck!
Yeah sure my mother in law just died from it. all of her organs began to fail her than she was on dialysis. She had her legs amputated and her a*s cheeks sewed together. just recently died leaving all her kids and grand kids behind just for a little piece of a white stick
When you are trying to quit, or stop a habit, you have to put something in place of it. at the times that you smoke, after eating, morning, etc. try doing something out of your normal routine. if you have a strong mind, you can do anything!! I did.
The most important thing is an act of will. Choose to do it. Do not wimp out with any "I can't" stuff. of course you can, and you CHOOSE to do so.
Just stop….no chewies…no patches….just stop….After three days when you start seeing the gunk and rubbish your body cough's up(your body clenses itself) and sweats out you'll be glad you did it.
self dicipline.
Think that if you have one more cigarette, you will DIE.
This will stop you from rewarding yourself with a cigarette (for example, after one week, you reward urself saying, I can have one now).
Now, everytime you usually buy a packet of cigarette, instead of buying put the money in a piggy bank and at the end of the month you will see you are rich. Money is the ultimate motivator.
If the TOTAL ban doesn't work… you may try the rewarding method of getting a cig per week abstinence. it is supposed to kill the urge slowly. But a determined person can quit any time I believe.
good luck and thanks for trying to make yourself and us a bit healthier.
well, as you know, there are many products out ther to aid one in quitting. Depending on the years you were a smoker, i think it would be best if you first consulted with your physician. Based on your history, he/she can recommend a product (ex. patch, gum, pills) that would best suit your needs as well as a program that helps people quit. ex. smoking cessation program. these programs are designed in a way that allows a gradual process for quitting as quitting too fast may result in you wanting to take it up again. another part of this program is a support system. you choose who you would call if you felt the urge. they actually help you past the "cravings". one last piece of this program is the rewards that you get for every day that you don't have a cigarette. This program works if you let it. Talk to you physician and good luck!
