I want to quit smoking so bad. But I cant seem to kick the habit.? -
I have idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Can be seen at www.pumonaryfibrosis.org and still smoke. I must be nuts. Can anybody tell me how to quit smoking in a way that really works. I have tried the patches, but they don-t work for me. This lung disease I have is fatal and can only get better with a lung transplant.
start with the patch, in order to assist you psychologically...do not throw your cigs away. Keep your current pack with you, but do not smoke. The patch will soothe your physical addiction, and the comfort of knowing you have cigs with you will alleviate any panic or anxiety.
Good luck and remember you can only succeed if you truly want too.
Ever heard of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)? The way it works is like this.. a person focuses on the physical, emotional or mental problem that needs to be worked on, then the person taps with their fingers on certain acupuncture meridian points a few times, which then unblocks the flow of energy through the body. Once the blockage is removed normal functioning of the the body can resume. It usually works almost instantly and it generally produces permanent results. Sounds too simple to be true? The truth is ALWAYS far simpler than we think it is. Buy the set of DVD-s from the following website. It-ll be the best $60 you ever spent in your life. If you-re as desperate as you sound (no offense intended), it-s worth a shot isn-t it? How much money have you already spent on worthless patches?

Help me to , i am so weak cant give up
I smoked for 3 years and then I could not stand it anymore and I finally quit because it was the taste and the smell that got to me. I got sick when I was smoking and took a drink of water and that was enough to quit. The taste of the water mixed with the cigarette was gross. That was years ago and I-d say that you have the power in your mind to do anything. It will be hard and you will want to go crazy but after a while you will win. It-s either that or die.
This method works for me and is the only money back guaranteed.
I quite smoking 2 years ago
Get the Facts
Easyway, founded by Allen Carr in 1983, has the highest independently verified 12-month success rate (75.8% for a smoker completing the program) of any quit smoking technique and a 90% satisfaction rating.
Compare Easyway to other methods and see for yourself why Easyway is called “The Cadillac of quit smoking methods.”
The Allen Carr Method
HOW THE METHOD WORKS
Using psychotherapy, the method works in the opposite way to the “willpower” method. It does not concentrate on the reasons the smoker should not smoke : the money, the slavery, the health risks and the stigma. Smokers know all that already. Instead it focuses on why smokers continue to smoke in spite of the obvious disadvantages.
It is fear that keeps smokers hooked!
Fear the smoker will have to give up their pleasure or crutch. Fear the smoker will be unable to enjoy life or handle stress. Fear the smoker will have to go through an awful trauma to get free. Fear the smoker will never get completely free from the craving.
The Method removes these fears
Smokers quit with the Allen Carr Method as happy non-smokers, not feeling deprived but with a huge sense of relief and elation that they have finally achieved what they always wanted….
TO BE FREE!
What about the terrible withdrawal pangs from nicotine?
The physical withdrawal from nicotine is so slight that most smokers don’t realise that they are addicts. What smokers suffer when they try and quit using other methods is the misery and depression caused by the belief that they are being deprived of a pleasure or a crutch.
The Allen Carr Method removes this feeling of deprivation.
It removes the need and desire to smoke. Once the smoker is in the right frame of mind and they follow the simple instructions, the physical withdrawal from nicotine is hardly noticeable.
No Gimmicks!
The Method does not use any gimmicks, useless aids or substitutes. No nicotine gum, patches, lozenges, tabs, inhilators or nasal sprays! No needles! No lasers! No drugs! No herbs! No shock treatment!
The Allen Carr Method is successful because:
It removes the smokers’ conflict of will.
There are no bad withdrawal pangs.
It is instantaneous and easy.
It is equally effective for long-term heavy smokers and light smokers.
You need not gain weight.
You will not miss smoking.
Medical Endorsements
A personal view from Professor Judith Mackay MBE, JP, FRCO (Edin), FRCP (Lon), World Health Organisation Advisory Panel on Tobacco and Health
“I have no hesitation in supporting Allen Carr’s work. Many clinics use some of his techniques but it would appear that few do it in quite such a successful package.”
Carole Johnson, Coronary Heart Disease Prevention Unit, Tyne Tees
“his success rate was such that, when budgets allow, we continue to use Easyway for work with specific groups and individuals.”
Dr Anil Visa BSc, MBBch., FRCA, Consultant – Royal Hospitals NHS Trust – Royal London Hospital
“I have observed the Allen Carr method at first hand and have found it to be very successful and I wholeheartedly support it as an effective way to quit smoking.”
Dr William Green, Head of Psychiatric Dept, Matilda Hospital, Hong Kong
“It is a remarkable fact that Allen Carr, on his own admission a non-professional in behaviour modification, should have succeeded where countless psychologists and psychiatrists holding postgraduate qualifications have failed, in formulating a simple and effective way to stop smoking.”
Dr Martin Jarvis, Principle Scientist, Imperial Cancer Research
Fund and Reader in Health Psychology, University College London
”...I am more than happy to testify to Allen Carr’s enduring involvement and to recognise the value of the kind of behavioural and cognitive support he provides.”
Dr PM Bray MB CH.b., MRCGP
“I was really impressed by the method. In spite of the Allen Carr organisation’s success and fame, there were no gimmicks and the professional approach was something a GP could readily respect. I would be happy to give a medical endorsement of the method to anyone.”
Celebrity Endorsements
-His method is absolutely unique, removing the dependence on cigarettes, while you are actually smoking. I’m pleased to say it has worked for many of my friends and staff.”
Sir Richard Branson
“Some friends of mine who had stopped using Allen Carr’s method suggested I tried it. I did. It was such a revelation that instantly I was freed from my addiction. Like those friends of mine, I found it not only easy but unbelievably enjoyable to stay stopped.”
Sir Anthony Hopkins
GOOD LUCK!
don-t quit cold turkey. just slowly eliminate the number of times you smoke. for example you smoke after every meal and you eat 3 times a day. stop smoking after lunch. after you get comfortable with that, stop smoking after dinner, and then after breakfast. and TA-DA you quit smoking!
don-t expect it to just happen, it will be frustrating and hard, but you must be strong. there are many programs out there to help you be strong and quit.
good luck!
i smoked 30-40 aday until doctor told me i had chronic lung disease. i was going on holiday the next day to Italy so i didn-t take any cigarettes with me! I spent the entire holiday having so much fun that I didn-t give smoking a thought. when i came home i had been smoke free for 2 whole weeks and it was easier to cope with. it worked for me so why not give it a try. good excuse for getting away for a while. keep busy is the secret. Take one day at a time. only think about not smoking today and see what happens tomorrow when it comes. Good luck.
Quitting smoking is extremely difficult. The withdrawl makes us not want to, but we know the risks and we know that they are not worth it. For anyone who wants to end their nicotine addiction, check out www.stopsmokingcleveland.com. This is the MOST effective method on the market. It is 86% effective and the details of the program are on the website (no signing up or submitting your information).
I tried this program and it changed my life.
Believe it or not, I used hypnotherapy. I haven-t smoked in 5 years.
me either I feel your pain
i cant stop.you CANT STOP so stop trying.
dont buy cigarrettes.
I quit 2 months ago. It took me several tries and I am still getting nic fits. I have tried patches and the gum before, but this time it was cold turkey. The fits were so bad I had to take sleeping pills at night to get some sleep. Will power and self discipline is what it-s going to take. Constantly remind yourself why you are quitting.
Even try light meditation, visualize how much better it would be if you quit, and visualize what would happen if you got cancer and died slowly and painfully.
Just throw all them away and get over it *****- jk, just talk to a phycologist
if you dont put them in your mouth you want smoke them.If that dont work get the patch.
GOOD LUCK
i quit smoking last year cold turkey. haven-t had one since.
