Stopped Smoking (not a Q, just advise amp; my story)? -

Stopped Smoking (not a Q, just advise amp; my story)? -

Hey guys, im on my 5th day of not smoking. I have to say already things smell so different - and good. Also my taste. What amazed me the most is the past 2 days I have had so much energy. Where as before I would never want to get up when my alarm went off in the morning, but now I get up automatically 5 mins before it even goes off! Its like my body is so refreshed.

As i-m to conceive, I recommed anyone out there just just give -stop smoking- a go. Once your past that 1st day you have a day to look back on.
All these tobacco companies, and stop smoking companies put it in your head that your so addicted to it - and they make you believe its hard to stop, and that you will need all these products to help you to stop.
Just have a few minutes of each day and actually realise - -its just a stick-, and tell yourself that your not addicted - its just a habbit. That is all it is, a habbit that people want to make so much money out of. ITS ALL IN THE HEAD.
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE XXXI support you!
But the road is not as easy for everybody else though.
My friend said his dad tried stopping it, but after a few days, he became unusually bad tempered--from a soft spoken guy to an a$$-kicking one. Then he started again, because he fears th withdrawal will endanger his son(aka my friend)

On a lighter note, another friend of mine had a dad who stopped--after 20++ years of addiction! He did it--although he said that it is hard--but it is worth it. My uncle stopped after his dad died of smoke-related diseases and he started to felt the effects even though he-s just 35.well its 3 weeks today guys!!! WHOOP!!! I feel i- completely over it!

Congrats, you-ve done really well!

Thanks for the inspiration, I really need to quit smoking but my boyfriend smokes around me all the time and it-s really hard. I tried nicotine replacement but it didn-t work, so now I-m going to give cold turkey a real go.I applaud your success and perserverence and I dont mean to rain on your parade, but......the storm is coming. The days ahead will be the worst. Research and personal accounts pinpoint the time beyond Day 7 as the worst.
I hope that your willpower will see you through.
Good LuckCongratulations, keep it up!!!Well done you!!!thankyou. Im proud of you.well done!. . . i stopped a few years ago and felt much better 4 it within the fist week.habits die hard and i found i had nothing to do with my hands so i went off to the chemist and bought those chubba sugar free lolly pops and hey they actually worked for me and they were inexpensive.within a couple of weeks i left them off and never looked back since .try them and see if they will help you too. . .im sure you wont regret it.and all the best .
