I am a chain smoker. I wanted to stop by now but don't know how?

Stop buying cigarettes


zelocokitty
I smoked for 25 years and quitting was the hardest thing I ever did. Wellbuterin worked wonders for me along with the COMMIT longenzes (sp?). Also have heard that Chantix works too.

Whatever method you choose, good luck!

If you cannot stop cold turkey, the best thing to do is go to your doctor. There's a new pill out.Chantax or something like that. I cannot remember the exact spelling but it WORKS! I have heard so many great stories and have personally taken it myself. I had smoked regularly for 6 years and tried that pill a few months ago, it helped. I never thought I'd be able to quit smoking and that pill really helped me. Although I quit taking the pill and am now back to smoking, but if you're dedicated to it enough, the pill will help you out greatly.

I've also heard chewing cinnamon gum can aid in quitting smoking aswell.

For me, I had my own schedule of when I would smoke. I got up, smoked my first cigarette of the day. Would go to work and at 8:30am every morning would smoke another one, then again at 10:30am, then at 12pm, and 2pm during my work day. What I did at first was cut out one of my cigarettes. I wouldn't smoke at 10:30. Then I'd end up cutting more out too. It's just like my body knew my smoking schedule and I weaned myself off of it.

I smoked 2 packs a day for 27 years and quit almost 3 years ago. I used the nicotine patches and recommend them very highly. Save yourself some money by not buying the expensive brand. The generics are the same thing. Good luck!

There are now sticker like things that you can stick to your back. They can help you get off smoking in about one and a half months! Hope you can stop! Good Luck!


Magee A
Just don't do it no matter how bad the temptation is. Or get the patch.

Being a smoker myself, I know that there is no easy way to do this. All I can off is hints and tips.
You need will power, and lots of it.
The first 10 days are the worst.
Sleep is the best therapy and if you are able to sleep as much as possible, do something physical to take your mind off the cravings. Dig in the garden, knit, walk the dog, drink heaps of water. Remind yourself that you will be irrational and angry and try to calm yourself down with this knowledge.
At the end of each week of NOT smoking, buy yourself something equal to the value of what you would have spent on cigarette. You deserve it.
After 3 weeks you think your doing good, but this is when you're prone to weaken the most.
Don't take any cash money with you to the shops. You'll find any excuse to buy smokes. Don't go to the pub or parties or visit friends who smoke.
You're going very well after 3 months and should be pretty well cured of the habit after 6 months.
All the best with it, it's the best possible thing you can do for yourself.

if you "really" want to then do it cold turkey. but if you're not able to, then there is counseling, counseling combined with a patch or some medication form have the best # 1 effect.


Shorty
Chantix. Worked wonders for me.

Go to your doctor, get this prescription pill... and make sure you've got a full stomach when you take it cause it made me a little queasy otherwise, but within 3 weeks I was pretty much off the habit, and I was a 2 pack a day smoker.
