Get this surefire method for ending smoking once and for all easily Ending Smoking now. Thank-You for visiting!

I need to stop smoking, is there any easy way, or what is the best way, I’ve tried for over a year, I’ve cut down from 4 packs to 2 packs a day, I ‘ve had some minnie strokes, and my doctor says I have to stop, I’ve tried the patches, but it still did not work, on somedays I would wear 2 of them, I soon found myself steeling my hubbys smokes, and was sneaking in the bathroom to smoke, I really need to stop, but I just don’t know how, and I also have taken little pills the doctor gave me but it still did not help, so if anyone has any ideal of a easy way, it would be great.

Where there’s a will there’s a way
If you have STRONG WILL POWER & little bit of "SELF RESPECT" you can just kick it like a soccer.
don’t depend on any chewing gums and medicines it is not Brown sugar dear it is just tabbaco -)

POLL: Should I stop drinking alcohol for my acne at a music festival?

Friday, September 25th, 2009

Im starting some Strong acne meds (roaccutane) a day before i got ot a music festival. Naturally, music festivals consist of smoking large amounts of pot and getting wasted – awesome huh?

The only thing is, the pills im on affect the liver and if i drink aswell it could really cause some damage, but i really want my acne sorted out and wanted to start them right away.

The thing is, do you think i should wait until i come back from the festival and THEN start my antibiotics, or should i take them before the festival and carry them on whilst at the festival but refraining from drinking (which will be hard and ultimately spoil it for me)?

Its so frustrating cos i really want to sort out my acne ASAP but i don’t want to ruin the festival!

Wait until you get back…..otherwise the money spent on the acne medicine will just be wasted. Besides, the acne isn’t going to go away in one night so it can wait.

I have been trying to quit smoking for the last three months. But whenever I’m not very busy doing something I have the erge to smoke. Also, when I at work, some of my co worker know that I am trying to quit and they make things worse because that start asking whether I have had a cigarrette. The fact that they even mentioned it makes me want a cigarette, so I end of lapsing. I don’t want to use the patch or any drugs that help to stop smoking. And I really don’t crave the nicotine. It’s really a habit. For instance, when I get in the car, I am use to lighting a cigarrette. So, I do. I’ve tried chewing gum and that works only a short while. To add on, I am trying to loose weight as well. One day, I did ok, but I craved chocolate and sugar all day long. I ate all day long, too. What else can I do? Not to mention, I have asthma, as well.

Good for you! I’m glad you’ve made that decision. I’ve been through the same thing and have been smoke-free for 14 years now.

Drink loads of water. That will help the urges when you’re not busy. Yeah, that will put you in the bathroom a lot, of course, but that’s better than smoking.

It’s obvious that your coworkers are not supportive of your efforts to stop, so don’t pay attention to their questions and comments about smoking or just ask them to not talk about it when they are around you. If they have any respect for you then they will comply. If it’s possible, walk away from them.

I’ve found that sucking on cinnamon sticks helps for that oral fixation. That would also be a good idea to have on hand in your car.

For some people it’s best to work on just one thing at a time. Maybe you need to work on stopping smoking first and then concentrate on weight loss second. Do you know of somebody who is supportive of this decision? If you do, then ask that person if he/she would be available to talk to if you get the urge again.

One more thing, walking is the best way to stop that urge. Plus it is also in your attitude. You want it bad enough, then you need to be willing to do what’s necessary.

Good luck! I’ll be praying that you will be successful in this.

Chantix

Addiction vs. habit?

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

I smoked for more years than I can count. (Well, not really, I can count them just fine.) I never really had a desire to stop, so any method I tried was unsuccessful.

My doctor discouraged hypnotism and suggested I try a new drug, Chantix.

I used it for a month and it worked like a charm, but there was one place where I really had to fight my urge, because it is where I had always smoked the heaviest.

It dawned on me that, since I was having no problems anywhere else, I was tempted to give in to a habit, not a craving or an addiction.

That’s been seven months, and when I told my doctor I’d quit taking the medication, he asked, "When did you start smoking again?" And I told him I hadn’t. I’m not going to go through this again.
Landston P — been there, done that. I had quit once before for seven months and thought "just one." Not smart. That won’t happen again.

It does sound more like it’s habit…like typical social smoking.
I also took the Chantix, which worked beautifully. The Chantix is designed to target the areas of your brain that trigger the nicotine cravings. Being that you’ve overcome that and the only time you desire to smoke is only when you are at this place indicates habit rather than a craving or addiction.
If possible, stay away from this place. I have found it necessary to avoid situations at times that may put me in a position to want to smoke. For that reason, I have been smoke free for 10 months. Congrats!

My sister smokes… she has been smoking since she was sixteen and tried many many times to stop the addiction. Unfortunately she now has lung cancer, and she is in a very bad condition. I have a younger brother that is about 13 and he is thinking of smoking!!! so if he does start i want to help him as soon as possible in the best way so he too, will not get lung cancer.

Have him talk to your sister.

Matbe y’all can help me oue just a little on this one!!!!!?

OK. So I started taking CHANTIX 6 days ago. It’s new pill out to help you stop smoking. And by the way is working greatly. I am only smoking half, no less then half of what I normally smoke. Too, you’re SUPPOSED to keep smoking the first week on it then stop. So tommorow I stop completly. ( yeah)
The thing is is that my boyfriend isn’t being very supportive towards me. he is stressed out with work( he’s a contractor) and snaps at me like he’s the one trying to quit, so naturally I snap back and what does he say when I tell him just to stop and breath not to take his bad day out on me? He’ll say SMOKE A CIGGARETTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My god. I know, it’s like thanks alot honey. I don’t want one but that isn’t the point.I don’t know how tricky it’ll be after tomorrow for me seeing how I am not to smoke at all.
So I’m curious how any of you dealt with quitting.Thanks in advance to all :)
Ok ok, So I typed too fast above it’s because I am a little irritated and just need a little feedback. Too I though maybe I’d get a little encouragement from the yahoo crowd!!! No love for me on this one I guess :(
Y’all should know he has never smoked!!!

I havnt managed to stop smoking (i wish) but i think i am smoking the ones you have cut out. lol. Im sorry he is not supporting you in this, he should not try to get you to smoke but praise you for trying to quit.
When things go a little smoother for me then i will quit i guess, until then i will be surrounded by a cloud of smoke, most likely trying to hide behind it. haha.

When is it a good time to stop smoking weed?

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

How old is too old too smoke weed? And to stop trying other drugs and such.

When you feel like it’s impacting your health, respiration, etc.

I’m over 50 and I don’t want to do anything "harder" than weed anymore, because I’d get scared I’d have a heart attack or something.

Ah, for the good old days, when we were young and stupid and drugs were pure and predictable.

new stop smoking pill. Chiantis?

it does not work as effectively claimed,

I need help finding a hypnotherapist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

Alright so I have decided I want to try hypnotherapy. I am a little nervous because people say you either can or can’t be hypnotized and I’m pretty sure I can be hypnotized because I want to be hypnotized. See if you don’t want to then you can’t right? But if you want to then you will because you are open to the experience.

Also the other reason I am nervous is because I don’t want to, well, get a quack, for lack of better term. And I really have no idea what to expect. I’ve read up on hypnotism and you wont end up barking like a dog just be in this relaxed state, almost like sleep but not, I think.

My Uncles wife once attended a hypnotherapy seminar to quit smoking and she says she’s never had a cigarette since, and it was a group of like 300 people.

I live in San Jose California and if anyone knows of a licensed hypnotherapist that works well or have personal experience that would be great if you shared!!

Thanks for any help!!

A lot of psychiatrists are trained in hypnotherapy, I would start there in order to be sure you don’t get someone who is wacky! Good luck, it’s definitely a good thing if you are able to respond well to it.
