Has anyone ever read quot;Allen Carrs Easy Way to Stop Smokingquot; ? Did it work for you? -

yes it did work for me, it is well worth reading, get a copy and give it a go you have nothing to lose, I gave up 2.5 years ago using this system. Well done and good luck with the non smoking xxI have read the book gives you something to do with your hands but dont give up the patches they worked for me in the end took me a few attempts over 2 years staying stopped was difficult but in the end you master it .I hear there will be a new tablet availanle soon thats ment to be good.yesIt did work for me but then i stupidly decided 2 months later to try a ciggie just to prove to myself i didn-t need them anymore and got hooked again. It doesn-t work for everyone but i know 3 other people it worked forI smoked for a year then quit using this system: Two rules.
A) Don-t buy any more cigarettes.
B) Don-t smoke anyone else-s.
I know it sounds stupid, but smoking always comes down to the point where you decide to have a cigarette. If you don-t have any on you, you don-t have to face that decision. Then you just have to beat the times other people offer you one. Say NO. It-s not easy, but if you-re trying to beat an addiction, what makes you think it would be? Haven-t smoked in four years, btw.Yes, and no.

I still have not seen sense, and continue to smoke, but I live in hope that one day I-ll quit.

How to stop smoking????? -

How to stop smoking????? -

so i am 17 i started smoking at 15 and i really want to quit but its so hard, any tips or anything i could read or go, and i want totally confidential cuase i dotn want my mom to know...any number i could call for free cause i got no money:sI used to be addicted to crystal meth in my teen years. actually the same age as you. 17. and crystal meth is the most dangerous and most addicting drug out there. but since your body doesn-t function normally with nicotine. I understand your situatiion because I for one was not normal without something else.

However.. all drugs work the same. The more you take the drug. The more your body mutates with it and works with it. So if your so used to doing a drug. Your body is not gonna have that drug to work with. The result is depression.. depression is caused by chemical imbalances in the brain. so if you don-t have your cigs. Then your not going to feel normal and you will feel sick at the same time.

Now the reason why I stopped doing crystal meth is because I had a heart attack. And it was the most horrible experience of my life man. Just scary and horrible. I felt like I was going to die. That experience is what made me stop for good. However I was still addicted at the same time. The heart attack was just enough to make me not want to do crystal meth again. But the experiences I had without the drug was -extream depression- and clinical depression. The type of depression where you can kill yourself because your brain doesn-t have any happy molecules left. -usually endorphins- cigaretts work the same. Your body has a natural award system. Dopeamine is one oft he biggest. Do you feel good after you get the nicotine in your system? your body releases dopeamine. and the rest of its endorphins. These endorphins are also produced mostly during sex and eating. Ask yourself. Could you live without food? Food itself is an addiction. However its a natural addiction. Our bodies aren-t normal without nutrition and viatamines. What you actually are doing to your body when you smoke nicotine. You are actually tricking your brain. And you enjoy smoking something thats the opposite of good for you.

TO CURE THE ADDICTION
You must accept the fact. That you will be extreamly depressed once you stop. -I WOULD RECOMMEND A DOCTOR TO GIVE YOU ANTIDEPRESSANTS- because the fall will be really hard on you. However you did say that you don-t want your parents to know. So that also leaves the issue that you probably cant go to the doctor without finding out. ... okay with that being said. you need to eat A LOT! once you stop. and make sure you are sleeping enough. This is the hard part for most teenagers and addictions because they need to give there body its natural addictilons. Sex also produces natural endorphins and a lot of them. I don-t care if you have to maturabate even if you think thats funny. It is all within the cure for addiction.

You have to substitute your bodies addiction with something else. But at the same time. You don-t want to be substituting your bodies addiction with another drug. You have to use your bodies natural addictions to get over a drug addiction. otherwise you will just get addicted to something else. remember that if its natural enjoyment. then your need to keep it up. but things that trick your brain are considered drugs. They chemically embalance you. depression and axiety play role then as well as health problems.

Just do as im telling you bro. you really need to take my advice and not all the other dumb azzes on yahoo giving you these zhitty answers that aren-t gonna work. YOU HAVE TO ADDICT YOURSELF TO SOMETHING ELSE! but just don-t make it a drug. Your brain becomes side tracked during the process. And thus if you last without caving. You won-t have that addiction and it will start going away. but the trick is to set your brain on a different addiction.

This is why nicoret and all these things help smokers stop for good. because they replace the addiction. which side tracks your current addiction.replace smoking with some other activity when you have the urge to smoke.

eat
call a friend
lurk facebook
dance
pick your nose
hit yourself
fart
anything

OR

you could get yourself more motivated by making a bet with your friend. say 50$ for each month or something??

OR

everyday or week you successfully dont smoke reward yourself . by jacking off. ******* your gf.. or buying soemthing you wouldnt normally buy... just indulge :D

PLUS

get your close friends and family to support you. encouragement and praise when you dont smoke will help you out alot . and when alot of people know you want to quit your more likely to do so because you dont want to be a failure in their eyes

GOODLUCK

DONT DOUBT YOURSELF ITS VERY POSSIBLE TO QUIT. MY DAD QUIT AFTER 20 YEARS OF SMOKING!!! AND MY BOYFRIEND JUST QUIT AFTER 3 YEARS, HES GOING STRONG WITH ALREADY A MONTH AND A HALF OF NO SMOKING!!!!no no no dude, **** any method, my mother smoked for 17 years and then boom, cold turkey, gone forever, you can easily do it too, just control yourself and end it right away, don-t say ooo this is going to be my last one, NO don-t do it anymore, and whatever you do, do not use the patches, they have way more toxins than the smoke itself.I quit two years ago after smoking a pack a day for 7 years. The key is to be sure that you want to quit 100% and you will strugle with it almost every awake moment for the first 3 months and every awake hour for the next 9 months after that. It takes a serious contentment to quit.Ween yourself off is the best. Cold turkey will just drive you back to smoking, because it will drive you crazy so fast, you-ll want one, and you-re hooked again. Just start off with a number, and work your way down each week until you hit zero.Well my friends mom who had been smoking for over 35 years quit cold turkey but took a dance class to cope with withdrawal symptoms. Id say just do something active if you quit cold turkey.Just stop buying them or always keep something hanging out of your mouth like a toothpick or a penOnly quitters stop smoking. What are you a coward?why do you smoke in the first place???? just stop cold turkey...there is a number to call...just dont know it. sorrycold turkey
