Can you stop smoking ? -

Can you stop smoking ? -

if some one wanted to stop smoking like never do it again. im not talking about smoking cigeretts but m/j (weed). do you think if they really wanted to they can stop? or would the craving of wanting to smoke it take over them ?First off, congratulations for WANTING to get off drugs!!

As far as answering, there are a lot of ways, and it also depends on how long you-ve been smoking it. The best ways are slowly lowering your dose (takes a long time sometimes), or going cold turkey (which is faster, but harder). Either way, the last thing is making the decision to quit, so you-ll eventually have to deal with the withdrawal.

For the most part, when you deal with withdrawal, you-ll just have to tough it out, but there are some things that can help cleanse out the toxins and may help to minimize some of the effects of withdrawal...
Drinking water will help to detox, and taking some supplements that work as cleansers may help as well. Specifically, Apple Cider Vinegar, Green Tea (decaffeinated), Chlorophyll (fantastic cleanser), and even good amounts of fiber and water helps some people (although it-s not very comfortable for the lower level of detoxification you get).

All that being said, it-s likely that the symptoms should stop relatively shortly after your last hit (it-s never as long as it feels like it is). Your neurotransmitters don-t take too terribly long to scream for something they are addicted to after you stop. The cravings will eventually subside after withdrawal is done, too... for some people, it takes longer than others.
Another important thing to note is that no matter how bad it gets, taking more of the drug will only make the withdrawal last longer and will be harder on you in the long run. Good luck, and congrats again!

Im 13 how can i stop smoking weed everyday? -

Im 13 how can i stop smoking weed everyday? -

im 13 and i smoke weed at leats 4 times a day i cant sleep withought it.Wow 4 times a day? That-s all in your head, you feel addicted but if you just decide to quit you aren-t going to go into detox.

Weed is meant for occasional enjoyment, not abuse.maybe you shouldn-t have started, go see a dr say you have insomnia get some drugs for it (talk to your parents about the insomnia first (insomnia means u have trouble sleeping at night)) and stop taking the pot or just stop being a big baby and tough it out, i had insomnia all through highschool and i didn-t complainyou should probably throw your weed away
or better, just sell it. it will probably be hard
but hey, you need to atleast minimize to a
lower amount a day. take some drowsy meds
or something and you-ll be fine till morning.

or you could just keep doing it (: haha, no.
good luckk kid

Does the cold laser treatment to stop smoking REALLY work? -

Does the cold laser treatment to stop smoking REALLY work? -

yes it does. I have several friends who did laser treatment and to this day they never went back to smoking. They were cured right after that treatment.I don-t know because i don-t smoke and i never will.I wish i could help you.depends on the motivation alsoUsually, you get what you pay for. But, in the case of quitting smoking, the reverse is true.... You just quit cold turkey. No muss, no fuss, no bucks. You just do it. If you have to pay someone or something else to do what you should do by and for yourself, what good are you?The only thing that is a sure-fire to stop smoking is WANTING to quit. It doesn-t matter how many prescriptions of Nicorette gum you exhaust, or how many patches you wear. If you don-t want to quit, no power on Earth will be strong enough to MAKE you quit. Not hot or cold lasers. Not reduced nicotine cigarettes, nothing.

Try what you want, but be sure you want to quit. Otherwise you are just making the tobacco companies and the -help-you-quit- scams richer.

Whats a good way to get ur parents to stop smoking? -

Whats a good way to get ur parents to stop smoking? -

my parents have smoked for as long as i can remember, and i getting sick of it

ive told them what the effects are and ive told them to stop with meds. but it obviessly(cant spell) isnt working.

i just want to not have to smell like smoke, which is a huge turn off to girls. even when i try to not be around them when they smoke i still smell like it....

i just want them to be healthier. and im worried abput my mom becuase shes always sick from tiny things and she cans taste and smell. i want to be healtheir too...

i also just found out i have Synaesthesia which is kinda annoying, but it has nothing to do with smoking.let your parents stop little by little until they can stoptalk to close family members or close family friends. maybe they can help you.
give them mints, Halls.
give them something to do, so they won-t smoke.I GOT MY PARENTS TO QUIT--this is how you do it. For them to think about quitting you need to shock them. Telling them its unhealthy and getting lung cancer doesnt work...Go to google images and type in lung cancer, and email them or show them pictures of people on oxygen etc. gruesome photos get to your head. If that gets their attention go to the store and my them so nicorette gum and tell them to atleast try it. It will get rid of the urge and hopefully by then they-ll be motivated to quit. Everybody has a switch inside them to quit, you just gotta know how to get to it.Tell them EXCATLY what you just wrote! ALso if they respect youa dn stuff they will alteast try!! :) Good Luck!It-s really hard to convince a person to stop smoking. If they-re not giving in now, they probably wont give in for while either.

Try reverse-phychology. I know it-ll probably sound disgusting to you but smoke a cigarette in front of them. See it they like that. After all, they-re supposed to be your -role models- aren-t they?Although smoking is annoying, unhealthy, and smelly, it can be relief from stress or serious emotion. Nothing you can do will make your parents stop, but next time, ask them why they do it and see if it helps.Your parents ARE the adults-THEY pay the mortgage, the utilities, and for YOUR food and clothing. And you want to tell THEM what to do? It doesn-t work that way. And you have NO idea how very hard it is to quit, even when it is affecting your health. People even smoke when they have to have oxygen cos they ruined their lungs from smoking! As a smoker, I find it relaxes me, helps me unstress from the daily bs of life. You think your clothes smell of smoke? You-re obviously old enuff to like the girls-how about you-re old enuff to do your own laundry when you think it reeks of your parents- cigarette smoke?
Don-t be so -holier than thou-.. So your parents smoke-would you rather they not smoke, but be out robbing banks instead???? Everyone has their faults-when you-re perfect, working, - paying your own bills, THEN you can refuse permission to smoke in YOUR home-but since you live in your parents- home, you-ll just have to deal with it.Try walking around the house with an UNLIT cigarette in your mouth. When asked why?? by a parent. Answer I just want to know what the attraction is. Thought I might try it.pretend like you are smoking a cigarette in front of them, watch them get surprised, then tell them if they don-t want their kid to smoke, then they should stop smoking.My brother and I used to flush our parents smokes down the toilet. With smokes so expensive and them being on a fixed income, they soon quit buying them.

Good luck.

I have recently stopped smoking and have been eatig chewing gum now im suffering from a sore tongue? -

Well, I-m not sure you should be eating it, but maybe try CHEWING a different gum for a whileUse mouthwash to keep the infection out of your tounge.chew sunflower seedsCan you switch to sugar free drops? Halls makes some vitamin C fruity drops and menthol ones. They-re not bad.wow, how much gum do you chew per day? Ever thought of getting those mini-carrots? They keep you busy, don-t have many calories and your tongue won-t get that sore, I guess. I quit smoking, too (35 days ago; still counting *smile*) and know how hard it is to stay away from those devlish sticks without gaining too much weight (chocolate is calling big times). Nevertheless I didn-t fall for the gum-trick and rather stuck to all sorts of veggies being cut into bite-sizes. (Yes, you may dip, but only low calorie-dips or self-made ones from joghurt and fresh herbs, some garlic, NO salt) Good luck and stick with it!!!! Get a stress-relieve-ball, maybe it-s better to have a sore hand then a sore tongue LOLyou could have a yeast infected tongue. I can not understand why people who stop smoking need to cew gum. I just stopped cold turkey half a centruy ago.
