Why do ppl claim they cant quit smoking? -
smokers have been around me my whole life. every single one of them say they cant quit. all they have to do is just stop buying the cigerets and fight the craving. i quiit real easy when i smoked and it wasnt hard at all.
This is best answered in terms of motivation.
If someones motivation to quit is less than their desire to smoke, then they will find it impossible to quit.
They could also be more chemically addicted than you were - of perhaps giving up smoking just isn-t all that important to them compared to the benefits they reap from being high on nicotine. It-s not really considered socially acceptable these days to say they don-t really want to quit smoking, given the health risks, so they say that they can-t quit. In a way, that statement could be true.
i think they dont have strong determination...my father is one of them..
Try this website for quit smoking help and information. Quit smoking can be a very stressful experience so you-ll need as much help as you can get.

This is what you-re exactly looking for.
Don-t give up and good luck!
For those predisposed to addiction to nicotine, it can be harder to quit than heroin. For those who aren-t, it is relatively easy. Be thankful that you weren-t addicted like they are.
How long did you smoke? I have tried: hypnosis, lozenges, gum, patch (I did quit for 6 months on this one), Wellbutrin, and guess what? I still smoke. Even after you beat the cravings, you still have the urge. I had a doctor that quit for 10 years and started back. You NEVER lose the urge. Many of these -stop smoking- things have people working for them that have never taken a puff in their life telling me that I will be able to quit on this or that. Bull!
its a drug...we are all different have different variances to tobacco
It is the nicotine addiction that makes it difficult for them to give up. They will feel like cold turkey if they stop. Need to have strong will power to quit. Otherwise, it will not be easy to quit.
everybody is different. just try to be supportive when those around you are trying to change. maybe being helpful or human is your problem.
because smoking is sexy and is wanted as sex so they dont stop wanting it
Maybe because they actually don-t want to quit.
Okay, but how long did you smoke? It-s a whole lot different when you-ve been smoking for 40-odd years (like my dad). He-s tried countless times to quit, and can-t do it. So many people try, but it-s far more difficult than you could ever understand.
Are you aware that a nicotine addiction is stronger than a heroin addiction?
its tough but i agree...i just keep buyin
dThey don-t really want.
They are weak and feel like they need something to -lean- on. I also have been around smokers my whole life, I decided to -experiment- and I smoked for 3 straight months and quit with no problem. All I had to do was want to do it.
That-s you. Some people can quit easily, others have a harder time. People are different. Haven-t you ever known anyone who could do something easily that was hard for you?
ummm...because maybe they-re addicted to the nicotine? Are you slow?
Its called nicotine. Some people-s bodies are more reactive than yours and have a weaker immune system. They would fall for anything. But most of them are pure idiots to begin smoking in the first place. Which (no offense) includes you. But you are so lucky to be hard bodied. You must be healthy. You-re brave to go near dat, cuz I aint goin near dat sh..
People can-t just stop smoking when they want to stop. Smoking is a bad habit developed by people who have problems, who want to feel cool and etc. People can-t also stop smoking right away for it will make them more unhealthy. To be able to stop smoking in a more healthier way, one must reduce smoking cigarettes everyday. This will only work if you really want to stop smoking other than that you will just continue to smoke.
