Just pick up a new hobby, it'll prolly be cheaper and better for your health no matter what you pick...unless it's other drugs..or cars..or..nevermind.

Good Luck,

Try slowly coming down, and smoking/vaporizing cannabis instead. That's what I'm going to do

Neither. Its alllll up to you. I tried the patch, but they made me sick and I still wanted a cigarette. I realized it was all up to me, but I just didnt have the motivation to quit.

Then I got strep-thoat. I couldnt smoke if I wanted to for a week. Its now been about 2 weeks and I figure I might as well keep on going. The patches never got me this far....

My advise is to get really sick.

Either that maybe try smoking a cigar instead so you still get nicotine but you're not inhaling? I don't know, just trying to help

I gave up smoking four years ago. I was chewing gum for a year or so and then realised I was addicted to the gum.

Cold turkey is the only way - you feel pretty shitty for a few weeks but gradually start to feel the benefits until you wonder why you ever enjoyed smoking in comparison to having clear lungs and more energy.

Most people who do it cold turkey never smoke again - you just don't want to go through the sleepless nights and cravings again.

cold turkey.

completely quitting spontaniously has proved to give the best results (scientific research proved that). So if you want to quit do it right now when you read this post and dump the cigarettes you have left in the trashcan! (no it isn't a waste of ciggies, dump 'em!). Willpower is what you need. be strong and quit RIGHT NOW. I dare you.

ps good luck, you can do it if you really want to  :stoned:

According to everyone I know that has successfully quit.. cold turkey is the only way.

The other ways.. you are still addicted to nicotine. When I worked at CVS years ago, there was this lady that would come in and buy the gum every week.. at $50 a box. I asked when she quit smoking and she said "2 years ago... I'm addicted to the gum"

The actual addiction/withdrawal isn't that bad, rather minor. It's more of a mental thing.

trying eating seeds like sunflower seeds. or oranges. or everytime you crave a cigarette drink a glass of water.

and in response to "The actual addiction/withdrawal isn't that bad, rather minor. It's more of a mental thing."

I hear heroin and nicotine addicts being compared to each other all the time. Then again, i dunno how valid their comparison is in terms of addiction. The addiction/withdrawl is not breezey though. It's no detox but i mean it's definitely hard.

reverse psycholegy... and of course cold turky!
it's getting rid of the habbit not the addiction that's the problame...

you're just so habitually used to lighting up a cig after eating while drinking when in the pub while on a break.........
simply stop and realize when you're used to lighting up and then tell your self "i don't want a cig! i've stopped" untill you won't have to remind your self...

good luck

it's also important to attach a positive feeling to not smoking... feel pride and satisfaction about it! insted of getting bummed about not being able to follow the instinct to smoke...

I hear heroin and nicotine addicts being compared to each other all the time. Then again, i dunno how valid their comparison is in terms of addiction. The addiction/with drawl is not breezey though. It's no detox but i mean it's definitely hard.




Well, I've never been addicted to heroin.. but I hear the withdrawal is nothing short of downright nasty. Nicotine may be as easy to get addicted to as heroin... but the withdrawal sure isn't anything close.

When I went to jail I was forced to quit smoking, had no choice. I went from smoking about a pack and a half a day.. to zero a day. I had been smoking for about 8 years up to that point. The worst part was for the first week, I felt a little irritable. There was no cold sweats, or agony, or puking. I definitely psychologically craved the physical act of smoking moreso than my body craved the actual nicotine. But after a few days of not smoking, the physical addiction was pretty much gone. After a week, I forget all about it. Two or three weeks, and you can consider yourself successfully "clean". My only problem was that I never wanted to quit.. so I started back up as soon as I got out.

I've heard good things about 'wellbutrin'.. being a mild anti-depressant, but also very helpful in curbing nicotine cravings in people who are trying to quit.

i've found chewing on licorice root when you have the urge to smoke can help calm the psychological addiction.

then again, i've never quit successfully :grin:

Yup..you realize cigarettes are pretty much pacifiers for adults. Its not just the physical addiction, but the mental. Its like breaking the biggest habit you've ever had.

Another thing to help is substituting the cigarette...with licorice/similar things. The with drawl isn't that bad if you trick yourself into thinking your smoking.

i just started my 2nd job,
but once my job routines/comfort/confidence becomes norm,

when im working my normal night job,
i dont care for cigs at all.
its the down time that get me.

so yeah, i know i cant quit right now,
but in a month i will take on this challenge.
i absolutely hate cigs now. theyre discusting
8 years of smoking and i can feel the gunk in my lungs getting thicker.
if i knew what i was getting into, i wouldnt of started.
im 4 months sober, & eventually i want to be caffiene (coffee) & cig free.
i want to run on my own chemicals for a change dammit. =)
