I want to quit smoking. I've tried several times before but the longest I've ever lasted was 1 week. My husband has agreed to quit with me but the last time we tried that we nearly killed each other. I know there is no easy way but some tips would be appreciated. How did you manage to quit? I know the nicotine is out of your system in just a few days but does the desire to smoke ever go away?

No patch.
No gum.
No pills.

I just said to myself I am putting them down. I never smoked again. The way I see it - Lie to yourself, and you are nothing anymore. I have not smoked since that day 8 years ago.

Everyone is a bit different as far as discipline goes. Good luck. I hope you quit!

I want to be supportive of my husband while he quits smoking. He's been a heavy smoker for seven years and he's ready to quit. He's been so excited while cutting back, making lists of all of the positive reasons for quitting. Also, he's got a perscirption for the pills that help him to quit smoking.

I hope the prescription is for Chantix. I work in the smoking cessation division of a county health department, and that stuff (on the market for just under a year) is helping hard core smokers who have smoked for as many as 65 years.

Smoking is a habit as well as a physiological, and psychological addiction. You need to be dealing with all three. Here are some of the things that have worked for my clients: positive self-talk, deep breathing, chewing on straws, or tooth picks, eating carrot sticks, celery, and pretzels instead of smoking. Taking a short walk . getting rid of all cigarettes and ashtrays once the quit date is set. Set a quit date and commit to it, taper down on your way to the quit date.

As his wife try to catch him doing something right, and compliment him on that. Be supportive and understanding. The only thing tougher to kick than nicotine is heroine. Understand that once he does quit there may be a few days of irritability. Offer some incentives of your own like a favorite dessert or dinner after X time of no cigarettes. Maybe a back or foot rub. Any relaxation techniques are good for your husband to help take the edge off.

Good luck to you both. He can do it. How do I know? I smoked 1.5 packs a day for 41 years and quit (cold turkey--ewwwwwwww don't recommend that method) 3.5 years ago.

Forget The Quit Smoking Gimmicks, Expensive Systems And Useless Strategies. Find Out How You Can REALLY Quit Smoking Permanently, Guaranteed!

How many times have you thought about quitting smoking? How many times have you tried to kick the habit only to give into your cravings and light up again?

I've been there. While there are many different websites focusing on helping people quit smoking, few have them were created by people who really know what it's like to be heavily addicted to the smokers lifestyle.. and it really is a lifestyle, isn't it?

We smoke to be social, we smoke after a good meal with friends, we smoke to relax, and we even smoke just for the joy of it all.. whether it's a choice or not doesn't matter, we don't all hate smoking, we all just know how incredibly risky it is to keep on doing it.

So, we stick on the patch and try our hardest to resist the temptation of lighting up.. when that doesn't work, we try chewing on nicotine gum, only to burn our throats and gag at the flavour that hardly replaces a cigarette.. and after those things fail us miserably, we become guinea pigs to hypnosis or magnetic jewellery, all claiming to be instant solutions to butting out that last cigarette, permanently.

Yet, how many of those things really work?

Our cravings are stronger than most of the aids, and despite how seriously committed you are to quitting, without a solid system in place, you are likely going to continue to shell out money trying every new gimmick to hit the market, only to continue right back where you started.

But it doesn't have to be that way...

I sort of unconsciously picked up smoking during a stressful point in my life, and I realize now that it's stupid and I've gotten rid of my cigarettes and I'm starting tomorrow to quit. During this past month I've smoked somewhere between 5 and 7 cigarettes a day. I have never felt addicted, necessarily, but I know I could be once I stop. I'm just wondering how hard it's going to be, and how long the crappy feelings are going to last. Basically, I need some motivation and reassurance.

motivation:
your health, your looks, your smell, social exclusion

reassurance:
The longer you wait, the tougher it will be. If you're apprehensive now, it'll only be worse later.

Good Luck!

I have been smoking cigarettes in social situations or when I've been stressed since I was 15 years old, now 21. On average I probably smoke two or three packs of cigarettes every six months. I love to smoke, and it helps me de-stress so much listening to music and having a cigarette in the car on the way home from school. Everybody knows they are terrible for you, and they cause an array of cancers. How do I stop doing this? How did you quit smoking?

If you can just quit, for the love of God, do it! I am you in 22 years if you don't. I was dx'd w/cancer 6 years ago, and even *that* wasn't enough to make me quit! I just finally quit with Chantix 67 days ago, but I'm telling you it is MISERABLE! I still crave a cigarette several times a day - night time being the worst. The chemicals are all out of my body now, so all that is left is the worst of it - the psychological addiction! My mind is a scary, scary place to be left alone!

If you are smoking 60 cigs in 180 days, you can put them down. Do it, if for no other reason than quitting when you smoke 30 a day is REALLY HARD!!!!

Good luck!

I'm not a heavy smoker, I only smoke about 5 a day, but I still feel the addiction and I want and need to quit completely.

What is the most effective/successful way to quit smoking? I've been cutting down little by little. Is that the best way or should I just quit cold turkey and force myself to not smoke through sheer willpower?
I don't use the patch or gum because I don't believe in using crutches like that.

mattyboymma, Smoking addiction can be extremely serious. Many everyday people have lost jobs, homes, family, friends, and loved ones simply because they could not break thier smoking habit. I recommend you seek some help. I found a site that has addiction information and a directory of addiction treatment clinics so you can help. http://www.addictionselfhelp.com

Live strong

To quit smoking is possible only by reducing the acidity of our body. what increases our body acidty :
1)Lack of Faith:If we make a careful research we shall see that people who have faith and perform their prayers in Islamic countries almost do not smoke at all .Praying throws the negative feelings from human brain,keeps you self-confident and prevents nervousness,stress causing the body acidity.
2)Refined foods and too much consumption of meat : increases the acidty of our body.By consuming natural foods and les meat your body will be balanced and will not need to smoke Herebelow are some refined foods:
White flour products(sandwiches,pizzas,cakes, ,etc):have almost no nutritional value and contain various chemical ingredients so as to have a better appearance,mouth-feel..Best way of consuming wheat is buying wholewheat bread,bulgur or making our own bread at home with fresh ground whole wheat flour.
White rice,salt,sugar: polished rice (without bran) also loses all the vitamins, minerals and causes acidity in our metabolism. right alternative is natural,branned rice.
White sugar: and its derivatives like chocolates,ice-creams,puddings,cakes,etc. are subject to many chemical applications till they become refined and granulated and increase acidty.We can obtain sugar from legumes ,cereals, fruits, vegetables and dairy products naturally. Ready made vinegars,tomato pastes,soups,puddings,pickles,tinned vegetables: also cause acidty and we must try to produce them at home as well with simple methods. Margarines,refined edible oils:are also unnatural because of the refining processes(bleaching,deodorising, degumming,etc.).Best alternative is cold pressed olive oil or eating oil seeds like sesame,coconut,groundnut or nuts like hazelnuts,peanuts,walnuts to satisfy our limited amount of daily oil need.Butter is not also good because of its saturated oil content. Avocado or peanut butter are the best alternatives of them. Tea,coffee and all kinds of alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks increases the acidty so we must prefer natural mineral water,herbal teas like linden,rosehip,etc. or fresh fruit juices .
Our protein intake can be obtained from meat,poultry,fish but the best way is to prefer lite dairy products or soybeans which is the only legume that can stand alone as a complete protein because too much consumption of animal products make our body tired because they contain no fiber and cause acidty.
After passing to natural nutrition we must quit smoking very slowly.Firstly you must determine a base amount.E.G.You must smoke everyday 15 cigarettes(or 20) for a week. After that you will decrease the number always one by one.E.G. next week everyday you will smoke 14 cigarettes.Quiting cigarette is also hard psychologically therefore you must be very patient and let your body adapt to the new amount both physically and psychologically and try to avoid yourself being effected from the side effects of quitting smoking .So each week by decreasing you can come to your last cigarette and then you begin to smoke 1 in 2 weeks then,1 cigarette in one month and then you can quit completely.You must not forget that after this period of 3-4 month quiting process you will gain 10 years added to your life .
Best Regards
