Anyone got a way to stop smoking? -

Anyone got a way to stop smoking? -

I have tried so many different ways to stop smoking none have worked so if there is anyone out there with som good ideas im open for it..There are drugs out there that aid in quitting smoking, but I didn-t take that route. Removing yourself from smoking situations for an extended amount of time helped me. These were social situations i.e. drinking with friends, playing poker, etc. If your most susceptible time for smoking is bedtime, for example, try doing something else in it-s place. Meditation, tea, and reverting back to a child-s perception of smoking is what helps me. A child sees it as an abomination, and something they could never do. Try implanting ideas, even brainwashing yourself. The mind can do amazing things, and becoming addicted to the physical and mental effects of cigarettes is one of those things. In my opinion, you can force yourself to achieve an amazing -positive- addiction equal and greater than that of nicotine and smoking. Remember, it-s ALL about attitude. Cigarettes are a sign of weakness. Can you attack your own psyche? Yep.

Focus on the negative during each inhalation of smoke.

Focus on the positive during each clean breath.

Become addicted to thinking about it while you still smoke.
Just a couple ideas... I still have trouble FWIW, and this is mostly me giving myself the talk.If you find the physical craving and habit is too great, use a celery stick or toothpick to chew on

- Avoid alcohol, as it will increase the desire to smoke

- Eat smaller meals more frequently to keep your blood sugar levels up. This will greatly decrease the craving

- Continually remind yourself that cravings will grow in intensity, but usually decrease almost as quickly as they came if you distract yourself

- Have a visual reminder of why you want to quit smoking handy. A picture of what smoking does to your lungs and body may be just what you need

- Take a shower or bath when you feel you can no longer resist. By the time you are done, the craving will have subsided

- Buy aromatic candles to light and reduce your stress/anxiety

- Have a friend or family member on notice. Choose a few people to serve as your support that you can lean on when you feel as if you-re going to give in. Call them as needed

- Throw away all smoking accessories no matter how insignificant. Seeing something that reminds you of smoking on a daily basis will only make the process more difficult

chew nicotine gum
use a nicotine patch
use hypnosis to stop smoking
use acupuncture to stop smoking
Surround yourself with nonsmokers.
Have a friend or family member ready to call when you need support.

smell someone who smokes how bad they smell they stink!!!!!!!!!
u gottA WANT TO GIVE UP REALLY GIVE UP - its hard i know - but u WILL feel better and ur sense of smell will really improve it took me about 3 weeks fore i coyuld smell a smoker and oh boy yukkkkyyyy - its enuff to keep me off them


also instead of saying that i gave up smokes - i say that i dont smoke anymore then i dont feel like im missing out on something its(smoking)jujjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjust like anything else that u dont do any more -You can try all the stop smoking aids out there, but the key ingredient to quitting is will power. If you are truly ready to quit, you won-t have any problem dealing with the withdrawal effects. Just take it one day at a time. Stay positive, and you-ll be fine.

Best of luck!Hmm... serious issue dude but I think you should try something else that is good besides smoking and try to refrain from touching,going near to it or using it cuz it can kill you, you know
Here are some videos and a promise club that might help.
