What do i do to quit smoking? -
will power....
nothing to it.....
Try ur level best and mail me after u quit.Even i want to try....
-smoke until your last day of work or school, and then begin quitting on the weekend (or whatever days you have off).
-indulge in other things you like, to the point of foolishness if you feel like it, during the first few days.
-sleep a lot and watch a lot of TV.
-avoid situations that frustrate you – you won-t deal with frustration very well.
-avoid any place where people will be smoking.
-call people whom you know well enough to impose upon and complain to them about how lousy you feel.
-keep a lot of your favorite non-alcoholic drinks on hand. --You will probably feel very thirsty, you-ll want to replace the oral gratification of cigarettes with something, and drinking fluids helps to flush the nicotine out of your system faster.
-have something to do with your hands and/or your mouth. If you like chewing gum, chew it, if you like ripping apart action figures, do so.
-remember that you-re one cigarette away from failure.
the way i quit smoking was i started using snuf. its a very fine form of tobacco that you snort
The truth that really works is to do it slowly,
each day use less and less until you can go a day with out them, then try two days and so on. Cold turkey is the hardest to do. Good luck...
catch my flu or wait till you get it - you will never want to smoke again. The amount of phlegm and mucus I am producing AND it hurts to cough so much so that i am kind of stuck. try that.
Use the patch. It works. Find a non-tobacco replacement for putting something in your mouth when you get the craving: gum, pretzel, cookie, whatever.
Be prepared to suffer a little withdrawal so you-re not frustrated by it when it happens. Your entire body is going to hurt and your brain is going to insist that the only way to feel better is to smoke. This is where your will power comes into play. Think of all the reasons to quit: Your health, your friends, your family, how embarrassing it is to be a smoker these days, how good you-re going to feel once you-ve quit. It-s very, very hard but so worth it.
I-ve never smoked, but I had other addictions to quit and it was the hardest, most painful experience. All I can say is congratulation on making the decision. Now be prepared to see it through.
Chop off your hands
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!
Do what you can...chew gum instead of smoke, find a stress reliever (throw a tennis ball at a wall, etc.), do what you want when you get a craving.
I think the only way to quit is to do it -Cold Turkey- Because I believe no matter what you take to try to quit you have to truely want to quit or nothing will work. I quit for 8 mo.
stay off it as long as you can and if you do give in look at it objectively and ask yourself whether it is really worth all the trouble
call the QUIT help line..if in Australia
Bill Hicks said It best when he said
-I-m planning on quitting gradually. First I-ll lose one lung, then a few years later I-ll lose the other-
In all seriousness though, if you dont already, take up excercising, quit puffing, and then feel how much easier it is when you dont smoke. The difference is massive.
Stop doing it. Think about all the negative effects of it.
Yellow teeth, bad breath, yellow nails, and dry and unhealthy looks... and of course there-s the Lung Cancer.
get the patch on, throw away all your smoking materials, and take a half hour walk each and every time you really want a smoke, that way you will quit and not gain weight.
Don;t forget to reward yourself for each week, for the 1st 2 months. manicures, cd-s, car detailing, stuff like that.
but lots of gum and patches. Give all your remaining cigarettes and your cash to a close friend. Work on something all consumng (like a brady bunch marathon) for a week. After a week the cravings should be tollerable.
stop buying them a s s h o l e!!
