784382 tn?1376931040 s anything wrong with smoking pot, but you still have the act of inhaling something in your lungs everyday which makes it hard to stay quit with cigs. I was a pot smoker too. Quit almost 3mos ago. Smoking pot led me to fail my quit each and every time.
897990 tn?1248268956 I don't know how long you smoked. I smoked for about 9 years, but very heavily, around 3 packs a day. It was easy for me to stop, because here I was, lying in bed gasping for breath. I was sick of being sick. I do smoke a little here and there, I just bum off my hubby. I smoke when I'm upset. Better than picking up pills, I say. My husband is having a very hard time with the cigs, even with today's crazy prices, so I understand how you feel because I see his struggle.
Avatar f tn Smoking is very expensive. I heard in some states it is $8 a pack? I could be wrong, but that would be an insane price for a pack of smokes. I use to smoke before I met my husband. I was smoking just over a pack a day. I did not tell my husband at the time that I smoked and I quit cold turkey. I didn't tell my husband I smoked until after we were married. It wasn't easy quitting, but I did it and I did not cheat. I quit 11 years ago and it was the best thing I've done.

Avatar n tn For me quitting smoking was hardwr to quit than my drug addiction 3 years ago. Addictions are hard to kick but you can do it.

Going on walks....im here fer u if u need someone to talk to. Thatll help.
Avatar n tn I smoked for 2 years. I know not a long time but this is how I quit. Ok I started just smoking half then I'd go down to a half of a half. I also chewed gum everytime id get an urge. And I wouldn't smoke that first one in the mornings. Id wait as long as I could then smoke. You could try eating sunflower seeds too. Hope that helps. Good luck! Princess.
Avatar f tn 10 a day is kind of allot, either way it's good you cut down if you were smoking more!! Ugh i quit during my 5th month I'm not proud if how long it took me to quit, I'm pretty sure only way to do it us to quit cold turkey...
Avatar f tn m not a smoker but, When my mom quit smoking she did what my grandpa always said to do If you have a sore throat. It sounds nasty but my mom says works! And I know it works for a sore throat. You drink a tablespoon of vinegar and then right after a tablespoon of honey then drink plenty of water. The vinegar kills bacteria in your throat while the honey soothes it. Hope this helps!!
Avatar n tn my sister quit while pregnant by imaging her baby smoking. I dont know how helpful that will be for you, I would say ask your doctor, they will usually have info on how to quit or get help quitting.
Avatar f tn I quit smoking 5 days ago and I am feeling like my breathing is somewhat shallow. Also, my lungs feel like they are being squeezed, I dont really know any other way to describe it. Also, in my upper back area, pretty much opposite my lungs, hurts as well. Is all of these symptoms normal for quitting smoking? I havent started the horrible coughing stage yet but my lungs do feel like stuff is loosening in them. Sort of like bronchitis. Does anyone know when that will start as well?
1262435 tn?1270311859 Persons with diagnosed CHD experience as much as a 50% reduction in risk of reinfarction, sudden cardiac death, and total mortality if they quit smoking after the initial infarction. Furthermore, the patient who has recently developed a clinical illness is very motivated to change, and several studies have shown that intervention in this "teachable moment" can be very effective.
Avatar f tn I started smoking when I was about 10, quit when I was 50. Got a carton for my 13th birthday. One of the 50 times I quit smoking I was sitting there wearing a patch on each arm, chewing a piece of Nicorette, puffing on a Marlboro all at the same time. It's rough!! It finally took. What bothered me the most at first was people smoking, but I made an oath that I would never be a reformed smoker that looks down their nose at smokers. One of the times I failed we went to the Casino.
Avatar m tn Hi Nirban I smoked when I was younger too. Here in the USA, we have a patch. That helps. Dr can prescribe zyban & that's supposed to help too. When I quit, I did not use that stuff though. This is what I did. I bought some straws. Then I cut them to the length of a cigarette. I took them with me, so when I felt like smoking I'd hold a straw like a cigarette. I'd even puff or draw a breath on the straw. Helped to relax me. I'd have something to do with my hand too.
Avatar f tn I quit smoking the day after i found out too. I was a smoker for 5 years until september when i found out i having a baby. To me its all in the mind, and you have to be strong and know that you dont need it , its bad for you and your baby. My husband helped me get thru it , my baby my family is too important to me than a cigarette. Just remind yourself that your strong , you dont need it, its all in the mind. Whats in the heart is what matters.
1425559 tn?1282786607 I also found I had enough wind to start a running program, and within a year I was running 10k races and breaking 50 minutes. These are the wonderful promises of stopping smoking. One of the last things we were told in our smoking cessation class was "we're all one puff away from a pack a day". Keep on keeping on bama!!!
Avatar m tn I quit smoking in February and had a litany of health problems just couple of weeks after. I hung with it for a couple of months though, despite all the issues with my sinuses being ridiculously painful and ears throbbing. Finally, in April I started smoking again and quit in two months after when I started to have an awful upper respiratory infection. Again, I started feeling terrible with multiple sinus infections. Forward to now, I have had serious sinus pain and blinding headaches.
Avatar m tn then she started smoking again in 2001, needless to say after not wanting any, being around her for a couple yrs smoking it reawoke my smoking disease. So, smoked on and off in 2003, quit for 2004. Then she died in 2005 not from smoking at 41. So I felt justified to bury my grief in cigs. since then i have struggled on and off. even stopped for 2.5 months after surgeries and started again each time. Now back to one or 5 a day or none for a few days, but it keeps coming back.
Avatar f tn Well i smoke now but just in the last couple of months, but... when i did quit, i found that walking or running was the best way to quit plus keep the weight down. when i quit, i did for 7 months and why i started again, i have no idea, i dint even desire one but its was my bday and well you know..
5887938 tn?1376115720 Get the book " the easyway to quit smoking" by Allen Carr! Its a great book! I'm about 100 pages in& just know I'll be done smoking by the time I finish the book!
Avatar n tn I love to walk, last time I quit I walked everyday and it felt great, I even started running once and a while, which I love to do. I'd like to do that again. So as soon as I can get in to see my doctor and get the prescription I will defenitly try again. I'm not going to give up.
