Try the gum. Worked for a friend of mine.
Otherwise, see a doctor (general practitioner) and they-ll give you a professional opinion of what works for their patients.
When you know these facts, quitting is not that hard any more.
Smoking and the Skin
The skin is affected by tobacco smoke in at least two ways. Firstly, tobacco smoke released into the environment has a drying effect on the skin’s surface. Secondly, because smoking restricts blood vessels, it reduces the amount of blood flowing to the skin, thus depleting the skin of oxygen and essential nutrients. Some research suggests that smoking may reduce the body’s store of Vitamin A, which provides protection against some skin-damaging agents produced by smoking. [1] Another likely explanation is that squinting in response to the irritating nature of the smoke, and the puckering of the mouth when drawing on a cigarette, cause wrinkling around the eyes and mouth. [2]
Skin damaged by smoke has a greyish, wasted appearance. Recent research has shown that the skin ageing effects of smoking may be due to increased production of an enzyme that breaks down collagen in the skin. [3] Collagen is the main structural protein of the skin which maintains skin elasticity. The more a person smokes, the greater the risk of premature wrinkling. Smokers in their 40s often have as many facial wrinkles as non-smokers in their 60s. In addition to facial wrinkling, smokers’ may develop hollow cheeks through repeated sucking on cigarettes: this is particularly noticeable in under-weight smokers and can cause smokers to look gaunt. 2 A South Korean study of smokers, non-smokers and ex-smokers aged 20 to 69 found that the current smokers had a higher degree of facial wrinkling than non-smokers and ex-smokers. Past smokers who smoked heavily at a younger age revealed less facial wrinkling than current smokers. [4]
The Chief Medical Officer highlighted the link between smoking and wrinkled, damaged skin, in his 2003 annual report. The report noted that smokers’ skin can be prematurely aged by between 10 and 20 years and, although the damaging effects of cigarette smoke on the skin are irreversible, further deterioration can be avoided by stopping smoking. [5]
Wow, it-s going to be tough. I don-t think that there is an -easy- way, but there are some nice tricks that can help you take some control your habit. It seems that for you, smoking is very automatic, so it has control over your life. Here-s what I would try. Every time you decide you want a cigarette, make yourself drink a whole glass or bottle of water. You-ll have to become more aware of when you smoke. You won-t just light up automatically, you-ll have to think, hey ok, I wanna smoke, but I need to get some water and drink it first. It will also help you reduce, since you-re stomach can only hold so much water. It-s also really good for your body to drink alot of water, so you can offset the negative aspect of smoking with something that-s positive. Also, exercise will help. The natural adrenaline that you produce during exercise will stop cravings. If you run, Nordic-walk or power-walk for example, the adrenaline will subdue cravings for the period of the exercise and for a period of time, usually a few hours, after the exercise. Some additional tips: Try smoking less of your cigarette. Instead of smoking the whole thing, try smoking just 3/4ths of it. Eating smaller meals can also help reduce cravings. These alone will probably not be enough to make you quit, but it gives you more control over your habit. You-ll be aware of when you smoke and ways to replace you-re nicotine cravings. Then it-s up to you to make conscious moves toward reducing your nicotine intake. Hope this helps and good luck!
