Stop now while you are young.  My mother killed herself by smoking. She was only 43 years old. It is a hard way to die. I just stopped myself. Do what ever works for you. Don't give up. The mind is very powerful. Maybe telling yourself that " i am a nonsmoker" will help. Keep your goal in mind and keep pushing for it

Set a goal each day to make it through without smoking. The key is to take one day at a time. \n\nStay away from your triggers: Coffee, tea and alcohol are well-known triggers for smokers.\n\nReward yourself!\n\nThere are plenty of websites that offer tips and support for those trying to quit.

I've taken a course to learn how to hold smoking cessation classes. You've got the best thing already....WANTING TO QUIT.\nIf you can hold off the first 3 days, you've got the hard part over with, according to most who quit. ALL symptoms should be gone in a couple weeks.\nJust keep trying. I personally recommend the "cold turkey" method because if you use a product to help you stop smoking that contains nicotine it will continue supplying your cravings for nicotine, prolonging the process. If you can find a stop-smoking product that does NOT supply nicotine in any way, it's probably safe.\n\nTry to distract your urge-most of them won't last more than a few minutes. Try:\n\nChewing some gum\nGo for a walk\nTake a shower (one place it's difficult to smoke!)\nAnd anything else that will distract you!\n\nYou can make it!\n\nP.S.  I'll email you with more info if you're interested. Add to your post saying so, if you want.

I smoked for 11 years at it wasn't easy to quit.  What I found worked best was to make a list of all the time throughout the day when you usually have a smoke.  Take a good look at the list and decide which one you don't 'need'.  Cut that one out and do it for a week.  Then take another look at the list and cut another one.  Keep going as long as you have to to get down to none.  By the time you get to one, you usually have enough confidence in yourself to look at it and think "I don't need this - it's not worth it."  It took me 11 weeks to quit that way because my average intake was 11 cigarettes (just over half a pack) a day.  By doing it this way, I didn't feel deprived because I knew my next smoke was just a few hours away.  I hadn't quit cold turkey and I made the decision as to which one to cut out and when.  It gave me a great feeling of empowerment.  I know it sounds like it would take forever this way, but slow and steady really does win the race.\n\nBest of luck!

First and foremost, you have to really want to quit for good; and you have to actually quit—not just cut back.  Set a date a couple of weeks in advance and mentally prepare yourself for it. \n\nMake a list of reasons why you want to stop smoking and keep it with you.\n\nIt helps to realize that most cravings last for less than four minutes.  If you can fight through the first few days, then the first few weeks (using toothpicks, peppermints, etc), you'll begin to notice days and even whole weeks without a craving.\n\nI would advise AGAINST the patch and the gum.  The long term success rate of those is extremely low.\n\nI've found Wellbutrin (Zyban is the same thing) to be the most effective craving control method.  After 6-12 weeks on that, I didn't need it anymore.\n\n16 months smoke free.\n\n//

Talk with your physician.  It may be that you need to go "cold turkey"  or more slowly with lesser dosages.  Your physician knows you best and could recommend the healthiest way to quit.

Hi, I quit smoking six months ago.  It was tough.  As for the Jack A** who says to just quit because it's bad for you, we both know it's not that easy or everyone would quit. DUH!!!  Anyway, I ran across a sight that I found helpful called quitsmokingonline.com   it's free and it covers a lot of the myths about quitting smoking.  It sort of gave me a fresh outlook on the whole thing.  As far as the constipation thing, I never had that problem, I would definately try to drink more water and eat prunes or raisins.  Also, more fruit and vegetables in your diet would be good.  I wouldn't use a laxative because those are so harsh, but a stool softener could be helpful.  If the problem persist, you might contact your physician for a prescription of some reglan just to get things moving again.  Good luck with your program of quitting, and don't be afraid to use the tools available to you like patches, gum etc.  I used them and had really good luck.  Don't let anyone pressure you.  You can do this, just take it one day at a time or one hour at time, or one cigarette at time.  I promise you will be glad that you made the choice to quit.  Good Luck!

Do you mean quit smoking?  If so, you can quit cold turkey by just stopping smoking.  Or you can try nicotine gum or the patch for your cravings.  Good luck and stay strong!

Don't take tips don't slow down don't cut back just throw them a way and get a inexpensive hobbies like weight lifting or running and if you don't have the will power to just quit this may sound weird but only smoke when it is humid outside and rid all smoke smell from your home and possessions but it would be much better if you just quit after a week you will find the smell of smoke repulsive

The most helpful thing I did was to reprogram my brain.... Instead of saying you are giving up smoking, say "I don't smoke". What you tell your brain, becomes the truth. Sounds funny, but it worked for me. You can also change some of your habits. If you always smoke after a meal then do something else to take it's place. Keep in mind that you are adding years to your life by achieving your goal.

Don't think about it too much. You need a bit of determination & you obviously have that to ask about it.\nQuit on the spur of the moment - try & frighten yourself & until you cope without one, steer clear of the pub & people who smoke. I gave up in June like that & have stuck to it where previous attempts failed. I did at first allow myself to have one with a drink but then went so long without going out that I sickened myself & haven't touched one since. Be careful of that though because it can become an excuse for a cigarette. If you've been smoking 20/30 a day you may want to have patches to help you & as well as giving you nicotine it can also act as a deterrent because it is dangerous to smoke with one on. But like I said once you've quit, forget about it. The more you say to yourself I've given up the more you'll be thinking about smoking. Keep busy with a hobby. Good Luck x
