How to quit smoking.Please help me.i wanna quit it at all? -

only one way to quit smoking
just quit
in Case u have a cigarette in ur hand while reading this then just throw it and say i quit and don-t lite any more
that-s it, how simple
but it-s not so simple if u have been smoking for a long time
long term smokers need a strong determination to quit, stop with another friend together, take some medical help, have alternate work to do when u get craving for the smoke
do exercise since u will put on weight
eat balanced diet
wish u smoke related disease free life in future
all the best to quit smoking and help others to do so
I quit smoking two weeks ago, but i must admit i had help from my doctor, he gave me a course of tablets called Zyban, and they work, it also takes will power but its better than all those Nicotine replacement therapies out there, But one thing i didn-t do is go to any therapy, groups etc, because in my opinion they wouldn-t of worked for me because i know i am giving up so i don-t need to talk about it and remind myself about smoking, i found distraction worked better. Good luck as i know how difficult it can be.
see a therapist or a doctor. if you are a longtime user, you may need a bit of medical help. cold turkey works but is for the truly determined. you will also have to get over all the things that go along with smoking like the hand position and the social aspect. don-t be afraid to ask a friend, family member or doc for help. understand that you may very well relapse but that that-s ok, you are just getting better and better at dealing with whatever cravings you do have. good luck
i was a chain smoker when i was in teens. I had a wrong notion that smoking helps to think better, it is manly to smoke.This habit continued even after my marriage.. but my wife did not like it. so to cover it, i used some sort of supari , but even then my wife used to find it, and we had some unpleasant quarrels over it. Then we had our first child. one of my neighbor was an elderly man, he advised me not to smoke as i am now a father of a child; this he told me, will create wrong impression on him, and when he grows up , he will also start the same habit. I thought about my son smoking in future and that made me to stop smoking.. i just stopped.. my appetite improved, my relationship with my wife also improved; if you have that WILL TO LEAVE SMOKING HABIT- YOU CAN SURELY DO IT..
Resolve it to day.. that you will never smoke.. and keep it that way.. i am sure you can...
First believe that you have lot of responsibility in this world and you have many things to think do not waste your time on how to stop its not a big deal you do not require it that-s it.
FOR QUITING SMOKING THE ONLY THING YOU REQUIRE IS YOUR FIRM DECISION NOT TO SMOKE. tHERE IS NO MEDICINES FOR THE SAME AND IT CAN BE STOPPED ONLY WITH YOUR FIRM DECISION

don-t quit
take a stand against political correctness
First, practice deep breathing every time you feel that urge to smoke a cigarette. Make sure to inhale a lung-full of air that you can muster in one breath. Then, let the air escape through your lips slowly. This simple act is a basic form of yoga and can be useful when you are placed in stressful situations that may urge you to light up a cigarette.
Second, it is always advisable to take in a lot of fluid. There-s nothing water can-t heal, goes one famous saying, and it stands true because drinking large amounts of water will aid your body to wash out the nicotine and other toxins that corrupt your body.

Third, write down all the positive things of being a non-smoker. Jotting down these advantages will open your eyes and enlighten your frame of thinking which was primarily clouded with the addiction to smoking. Be sure to read aloud all the good things that you-ve written down. In this way, you get to condition yourself to avoid thinking of going back to your addiction.
Fourth, indulge in simple pleasures. You can try pampering yourself by enjoying a day at a spa to release all the bad vibes and stressful tensions that may serve as impetus to your smoking spree.

How to help a person to quit smoking? -

If they really want to quit smoking and are serious, I would urge them to go to (or call) their family doctor and get a prescription for CHANTIX.
It works by tying up the nicotine receptors in the brain, so you don-t have the cravings. It works really well. The person would have to work on behavioral issues, such as habitually wanting a cigarette when getting up, after a meal, while on the phone or in the car, etc.

I had tried to quit about ten times, once for 6 months, but never could keep away from the cigarettes. With Chantix, I quit despite some really stressful events in my life, and while I occasionally want a cigarette, it-s a mild craving. I haven-t smoked in 21 months.

As for some quitting tips, tell the person to take a shower when possible when they have a craving, or: brush their teeth, exercise strenuously to cause deep breathing, take up swimming, distract themselves by going to a movie, walking, staying away from those situations where the person previously smoked (bars), telling everyone they know that they-re quitting, eating celery or carrots, chewing gum.

I wish the both of you very good luck!!
People often smoke when they are nervous about sth because it comforts them for a short moment and once they are done they get nervous again and pull out another cigar.

I wouln-t let these people alone, i would invite them to go out with me, to go to a movie and have fun. when they are happy and having fun they would not want to touch a cigar. bear in mind, the idea of having fun doesn-t mean to make them addicted to sth else like beer.
You tell them every thing it dose. then you tell them what it is doing to them right now then you tell them it affects them long term and if they dont quit now it might be fatal. they also need to wana quit as well.
Throw them in a closet, lock the ******* door and don-t let them out for about a week. That should do it.

How to quit smoking without taking any medicines or hypsosis? -

there are many ways to do that. but lets- say one thing that works for me may not work for you. every one is different and you need to find out what works best for you.
1.the first thing is that your will power .
2. decide that you want to quit and why do you want to do that.
3. ask yourself that why you cannot quit.
4. one thing that worked for me is that I (and most people) usually link smoking to something else. like, I used to smoke after a meal, when I wake up in the morning, after my lecture...etc......try to break that link, don-t smoke at the usual time you always do. this helps a lot..................hope I was any help.
i quit smoking just like that and it is now almost 6 years without a cigarrette
just stop smoking- no patches, no gums, no drugs nothing
Cold turkey
Don-t buy anymore. Quit hanging around other smokers.
Just stop it. Use celery and carrot sticks to keep your hands and mouth occupied until all of the cravings pass. It-s tough but you can do it.
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!
cold turkey and will power
You just need your own strenght and will. Eat some mint buble gum everytime you feel need for smoke.
i would think non-possitive thouts think about it. you dont quit think about all that gun kand crap that will go into your lungs and heart down load some pictures from the internet that will sort you out!
I used a Q-Ray to stop smoking...I have heard that it helps with biting nails too. About 5 of my friends have them, and they say it works like magic. It-s a bit unclear how they work, but I just went by a friends word, and BAM it worked for me....

hope this helps

Obama Smokes?
Apparently he stopped during his campaign, but he still smokes now. He-s chewing gum and ****, so he-s trying hard to quit. So what though? smoking isn-t going to impair his ability to run this country! I smoke about half a pack to a pack a day and I get straight A-s. it-s not like it hurts your ability to think or anything.

Plus, with all the **** he-s faced with now? I-d need a cigarette every now and then too.

Once you quit smoking, how long does nicotine stay in your system ? -

Once you quit smoking, how long does nicotine stay in your system ? -

the first three days of quitting -cold turkey- are the hardest, i assume because that-s the normal time it takes to clear the nicotine out of your system (but i-ve read it can take 14 days). drink plenty of water and GOOD LUCK !!!
nicotine is a short acting short lasting drug, this is why smokers have to keep smoking to get their fix. Generally, once your quit, all nicotine is out of your system in 24 hours, it can take up to a year for the body to get rid of all the other toxins you get with cigarettes, like the tar that builds up in your lungs and the cyanide that builds up in your bones and hair.
It takes quite a few months I believe. I have emphysema and COPD so I-m doomed. I-m here on borrowed time. If you smoke, quit now! Believe me! Its NOT worth the cost and suffering you will encounter over the years.

I have decided to try to quit smoking for sake of getting pregnant, and in the past have tried almost all the -gigs- smokeaway, niccorette, all of em and none have worked for me? any tips for quitting that wont put me in withdrawls. also if anyone knows after i quit, how long will it take to become pg?
It may take many tries. You will almost always have withdrawals. The physical addition should be gone in 2 weeks. The rest is phycological. Do you always smoke when you drive, or talk on the phone, or with a cup of coffee? Then you will get the urge. Ask your doctor if there are smoking cessation programs in your area. They have the resources and knowledge to help you quit and deal with the situations that will tempt you to start again. They can also prescribe Chantix or Zyban. Smokers get pregnant all the time. So there is no time after you quit that it will take for you to get pregnant. Should be good motivation for you!
No telling how long it will take to get pregnant. Keep track of you ovulation cycle. See a fertility specialist.
I-m trying to quit smoking as well, what surprised me was that when my friends quit, they said going cold turkey was better than trying the nicorette stuff and all those gums.
There is a drug that is supposed to be proved to help people quit smoking. State insurance covers it. I guess you can still smoke for the first week you are on it then after a week I guess you shoudn-t have any cravings. The medicine is called Bupropion. I am getting my prescription next month.
please remember the time when your first time start to smoke. What did you feel? Make sure that the cigarrete is not deliciouse. Think about it five minutes before you take a ciggarette to smoke. I-m sure, you will stop your smoke.
A FRIEND OF MINE SUGGESTED TO ASK A DR.ABOUT A PILL,SUPPOSED TO REALLY HELP W NO SIDE AFFECTS.MYSELF IM GOING TO TRY THIS.THEN ULL BE ALRIGHT TO GET PG,BUT PLZ TALK W UR DR.OKAY
I tried all the gimmicks, finally quit for good cold turkey 6 and 1/2 years ago. A friend did the laser and has been successful for 8 months so far. Both times my wife got pregnant she got sick when she smoked, that-s how we knew for sure she was pg the second time. She could not have smoked if she wanted to.
