ways to stop smoking

I am on the last few chapters and am still nervous and scared to stop smoking. Wondering if anyone has read this book and successfully quit with his method and if you have any advice on how to turn the withdrawal pangs into a positive thought. I am not known to think positively very often.

No I haven't read that, but have a suggestion that helped me... borrow library books on positive thinking and the sub conscious.

Everyone quits smoking dozens of times every day. But stopping permanently without suffering from withdrawal or weight gain is a trick - and you ...

my mom is trying to stop smoking for at least the 4th time now, and she is having a lot of trouble doing so. she doesnt wasnt to buy anything or use any medication, expencive or not, but she doesnt know what to do. i just want to help her out and want to know how to do so, thanks.

I just quit 30 days ago now... and after smoking for 10 years I know how tough it can be. There is nothing such as cold turkey in quitting. It has to be gradual withdrawal. Check what strenght cigarettes your mom used to smoke and then ask her to smoke half the strenght and half the amount for a few weeks and then half the strenght and amount again for a few weeks do this until she is smoking 2mg cigarettes and no more then 5 a day. After a while, replace the cigarettes with Nicotine gums and finally try going without cigarettes. It took me 6 weeks, but I'm off cigarettes for good. I used to smoke a pack a day and now I don't need cigarettes at all.

I have smoked pot for about 5 years pretty heavily. I am 21 and in college and i REALLY want to stop smoking pot...... but i cant! I've tried and in a week or two i find myself smoking again.

Oh wait i got this one, STOP.


jk, give complete control of your money to someone you trust. everything even small cash and coins.

You also need to take a break from the people in your life that smoke pot. It's not that they're bad people, it's just that they are each a possible enabler. Don't hang around anyone who will enable you.

Also, you're in college? Do you smoke as a way to deal with stress or just as a time waster?

If you smoke to deal with stress you need to find another outlet. I would suggest Racketball.

If you smoke to blow off some extra time, I would suggest making your schedule so busy that literally you don't have time to smoke.

Meaning you have class class class, tutor, tutor, study study type schedule. In which the mass majority of your time is spent in a professional situation with people who won't put up with smoking.
The pressure's of professionalism can be a positive influence. I know many people who have used professional situations to force themselves to quit smoking, or drinking.

Or if that's too strenuous an Idea, you can always blow off some time playing Racketball. I use this example mainly because it is fun, social, and healthy. Exercising will force your body to start craving more exercise. As social activity creates the craving for more social activity.

Take lots of vitamins, to keep up your strength. The B12 vitamin Niacin will especially help to clean your system of the poison creating the high people smoke pot to get.

does anyone know ways to stop smoking other then the nictotine patch that didnt work at all for me and before i call my doctor and have her switch me to something else i want to read about them

Try cutting down one cig at a time every few days. That will help you gradually wind down. Try Nicorette gum and keep stuff to chew on to keep your mouth and hands busy.

I've been smoking cigarettes when drinking for the past year. I will have from one cig to waking up and having no cigs left. I will occasionally smoke a cig when sober to relieve stress or to be social. Whats the best way to limit yourself from any cigarettes when you are drinking? Lately I've been trying to not smoke at all when drinking, but have been getting cravings. No haters please. Thank you in advance.

I am trying to quit smoking too and I found out everytime I have a drink I NEED a cigg. So I am giving up drinking till I can give up smoking.
