What is the most effective way to stop smoking? -
I want to quit smoking and I-ve used the patch before but it was the Equate brand which did not stick to my arm very well causing me more stress. I need to know where I can get coupons or vouchers for Nicoderm CQ for all the steps. I-m more than ready to quit I just can-t seem to save enough money for the patches. The cigarettes I smoke are the cheapest I can find and it would take two months worth of buying cigarettes to afford the patches. If it were that easy I wouldn-t be asking. Nicoderm is the best way to do it but I don-t know how to make it affordable for my husband and I to quit together. We-ve been smoking for about 3 years which isn-t bad but I-m up to a pack a day and honestly I-ve never been a smoker until I hit 30. I-m getting fed up with ashtrays, smelling gross and having yellow teeth. Can anyone help me?I smoked for 14 years before I quit. I was successful when I slowly lowered the number of cigarettes I smoked per day. Set a date to quit and then each day smoke one less cigarette as your date nears.By the time my quit date came I was only smoking one or two cigarettes a day, and so it wasn-t a big deal to quit then. --The object is to slowly lower the levels of nicotine in your body to reduce cravings.
Try to make the first cigarettes you cut out be the ones you have after dinner, or other trigger times. Basically you have to make a new habit of not smoking.
It took you x amont of years to form this smoking habit, so it will take x amount of days (approx 5 weeks) to form the new habit of not smoking anymore.just stop. . quitting comes from deep within,
patches are just a crutch, they just give you permission to fail. You take charge and you do it
is it easy, NO it is not, good luckIf your actually serious about stopping smoking, first I would cut down one cigarette every week, smoke ten on week one, smoke 9 on week two, and so on and so forth. Its hard but you have to believe in yourself. do that for however many weeks you think you can hold out. this is more of a money saver then a quit-smoking result. next thing you know, instead of spending 120$ a month you-ll be down to 100$ a month. and just keep reducing it! I would save that money for the patch, pill, whatever! your doctor perscribes. its expensive- but wouldnt you rather live another 5-7 years?
