How can I stop smoking cigarettes? -

Any suggections will be appreciated. Thanksi always got really depressed when i quit and i always gave up. this last time, tho, i used the patch and i was prescribed by my doctor a very low dosage antidepressant. not enuf to feel medicated because i am a parent but enuf to take the edge off. i also wanted to do something healthy to replace smoking so i started running, and drank lots of water. also, to help with the oral habit, i chewed on cinnamon sticks. its been 18 months now and i can run 5 miles a day and am in better shape than ever. i am 38 and i smoked for 20 years. good luck!One way that works real well is to purchase the newly created e-cigarettes, and then gradually reduce your consumption instead of quickly quitting (since you know it-s bad for you) but then getting that long awaited craving for another.

There are patches, as well as gums that contain nicotine, and some scientific studies actually say that nicotine is ok for you. The bad thing about regular cigarettes is the smoke that clouds your lungs and is a top contributor to cancer. With the new e-cigarettes, there is no smoke, only water vapor as a byproduct. It looks just like a regular one, but without the terrible effects of tar (which can be found in regular cigarettes.)

Switch while you-re still young! It gets harder as you age.It-s hard, if you are a strong person you can do it. It helps to have something in place of the cigarette, like a toothpick or gum. Just something to keep you busy. People smoke cigarettes a lot of the time because it-s something to do.
I know someone who got acupuncture, it was about $200 but after you do it you have no addiction whatsoever to cigarettes. But as soon as you pick up a cigarette after it, you will become addicted again. If you think you can stay off i-d say do it.The medication -Chantix- was the ONLY thing that worked for me. You should follow the directions exactly. It takes away the top edge of needing a cigarette but the social urges will continue until you get used to doing without. It will not be easy no matter what you do to try to quit but this is the easiest way I have found. I have tried most of the other ways and it just didn-t work for me. Good luck and I hope you will join the non smokers soon. The biggest thing is to never stop quitting. It-s ok to take a break from quitting for a short time but know that you are going to try again and keep at it until you do. (I never thought I would quit... took several years of being a 2 pack a day smoker till I quit for good)My friend tried to stop for years. She started smoking when she was about 14 or 15, and she am 28 now. Last Thursday she had no cigs when she woke up. She decided then and there -I-m done, no more-. She broke down at a party on a Saturday night and had half of one but other then that, she didn-t have one and she felt great.

Pills and patches are all to make you think you don-t need to smoke, they usually don-t work. Cold turkey is the best way to do it. Google -what to expect when quitting smoking- and you will get a ton of info that will help you through the process. Good Luck!

May be your first step is to learn how to stop smoking in a correct way. Most people fail to quit because they quit wrongly. Then, you can start your journey of quitting smoking.

For a start, you can learn from allen carr-s book or Successfully Stop system at http://www.istopsmoking.orgThe addiction is all in your head. I was addicted to Newport for a while because of stress at work right. one day i just stopped and went to the park to play basketball like i used to and it helped me out a lot. You gotta get that out of your mind all those patches and gum and stuff don-t work. Do something that will benefit your heath like running walking the dog ride a bike - even go for a hikeI have been using green smoke for a while now and i can tell u its 100% a healthier alternative than smoking! no carcinogens carbon monoxide or tar, just nicotine and u can use it to ween yourself off if u like....... but the best part is it looks and feels like u are really smoking but its just water vapour!! check out the website and read up on the benefits I-m sure u will be as impressed as i was!!! u can also use this code disc10-7097 to get 10% off the price should u decide to join us green smokers lol hope this helps

???No I never heard of one but what a great idea! You might be onto something.^------- Antabuse is a drug that will make you violently ill if you drink. If you take it it is very effective (no duh, if you get projectile vomit every time you drink a beer you probably won-t be drinking very many beers) but considering it does have mild side effects eventually people stop taking it and then end up drinking again. Naltrexon (developed for people with opiate addictions) has been shown in studies to reduce cravings and make withdraw easier for alcoholics. I am not sure if it is currently FDA approved for that applications or not though (maybe it has, its been a while since I read the study). But its a pill not a patch, and the majority of drugs are not soluble enough (either in h20 or lipids) to be very effective transdermally (through the skin).no, but there is a medication
antabuse is the name

Yes it-s called will power, I have none, I smoke 2 packs a day.get a new obsession, like sunflower seedsstay away from other that smoke chew gun be really dertermaind to do it sorry about the spellingMost people say that it-s hard to quit smoking. But my uncle and grandpa proved otherwise. My uncle was a serious smoker before. He used to buy a lot of cigarettes a day. But when he got married and had children, he promised his wife and kids that he would quit smoking because smoking not only gives harmful effects on your health but it can cause you to suffer financially, and also affect your relationships. At first, my uncle found it hard to quit smoking but eventually after a few months he never smoked anymore. This was what he did: First, he limited the number of cigarettes he consumed in a day,let-s say, from 40-50 cigarettes to 10-20 until he would do only 1 or 2 and finally get rid of it once and for all. I know it is hard because I can see it through my uncle-s experience. But despite of this, he was successful in getting rid of smoking. Now, he is much healthier, stronger, younger-looking and most of all happier than before. And don-t forget, if you have the determination, perseverance and the motivation to live a healthy and longer life, and especially if you gained some encouragement and inspiration from your family, loved ones, friends, or anyone, then smoking wouldn-t be impossible to quit. =) My grandpa was able to quit smoking too and my dad is working on it. =) It-s just a matter of finding the right initiative and inspiration! =)juice fasting and cleansing programs like this one are how i quit.

Does liquorice help you stop smoking? -

No, but it will make you gain weight. Munch on carrots, celery and fruit to keep yourself busy, without the weight gain.Anything you can put in your mouth on a regular basis can help you stop smoking. After putting a cigarette in your mouth so often you form a habit called oral fixation that makes you want to constantly put something in your mouth. This is one of the reasons people gain weight when they quit smoking.

I quit successfully 2 years ago and I used sunflower seeds and cinnamon sticks to fight the oral fixation. You will not gain too much weight and your breath will smell good at the same time.LOL NO . haa . i eat licorice all the time . stillll a smoker.

Now, why? (Smoking)...? -

Now, why? (Smoking)...? -

Think about it, there are many commercials on pills and crap to stop smoking, if everyone is so crazy about wanting everyone to stop, why don-t they just stop selling them all together? people will get over it.They say drinking and driving are bad too. Why don-t they stop selling alcohol and cars?Because prohibition does not work. Prohibition has not worked for alcohol. (see US Constitutional Amendments 18 and 21) Al Capone became a millionaire bootlegging alcohol. And, alcohol related deaths increased dramatically when Prohibition took effect. Good discussion at:
http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Troy/439…


Prohibition doesn-t work for another plant, Marijuana, nor for opium, a poppy. Prohibiting anything makes it just that much more attractive for many.

Besides, tobacco companies pay huge taxes to the government, and tobacco taxes fund a lot of programs. The interests that have a stake in tobacco production and use would not allow prohibition. Besides, if one can grow Marijuana in a forest area, so could one grow tobacco. And a whole new -war on drugs- would be waged, and a lot of money probably made (untaxed, most likely) by criminals.

Bottom line: Banning tobacco is ideally a good thought, but would most likely not work in the real, practical world

Just my thoughts.i know 2 reasons....1) cigarettes will go on to the black market and then many people who had no intentions to get involved will get involved because its meant to be cool (like drugs...) and also 2)people have the freedom to choose...that also means the freedom to choose to smoke...because its all about greed.. people want money and thats all they care about even if it means endangering millions of peoples lives!rufr? the people who sell cigarettes make a lot of money and would never contemplate not selling them.

Now, why? (Smoking)...? -
