Avatar n tn I know this is going to sound trite, but you CAN stop smoking if you truly WANT to. I used to feel just like you, do a Rip Van Winkle and sleep through the cravings and withdrawals. I can't tell you how many times I gave into that crave just 15 minutes after I said that this was my last one! That's because I really didn't want to quit. After smoking for 40 years and using an inhaler for the last 5 of my smoking years, I decided that it was time.

7773990 tn?1400728625 I want to say there is more nicotine in an e cgis but not certain. Just try to wien yourself off. When my mother in law attemoed to stop smoking I always saw her with an unlit cigarette in her mouth that she would puff on. It seemed to work for her. I'm sure it's still not good for you but better than actually inhaling the smoke. Hope this help, good luck. You can do it!!

3106038 tn?1346813169 I'm not being funny but I like this forum too, but when you get questions like " I'm smoking weed all the time to help get rid of my morning sickness" do you think that people aren't going to judge, I'm not being rude, but like you I like reading people's stories and if they have a serious question I like to help if I can, but questions like that make me so angry to know that you would put your babies health at risk just to make yourself feel better ya know, congra
Avatar m tn You should stop taking spicy food, vinegar, alcohol, cigarette smoking if present. A 24hrs gastric pH and urease breath test with upper GI endoscopy will help to substantiate diagnosis. Antacids and proton pump inhibitors will reduce the acidity for which consult a physician. The other possibilities are hyperplastic tonsil, abnormal upper esophageal sphincter function, stress or psychological abnormality causes this sensation due to altered upper esophageal pressure.
Avatar f tn I started getting ready to stop smoking about 5yrs ago. I decided not to smoke in my car anymore. I suffer from anxiety, so I'm never away from the house for more than 2hrs max and I figured I could at LEAST go without a cigarette that long. At the time, I felt like this alone was an enormous accomplishment and it helped me to start thinking like a non-smoker, I had been a smoker for 33yrs before I quit last July.

Avatar f tn I have been diagnosed with many mental health disorders and I know for me to even have a chance at dealing with them I have to stop smoking weed but I just cant. Ive tried everything, treatment centres, everything and I just want so badly to stop. Im also scared if I stop smoking weed then I will start drinking again and that would be really bad because I go crazy when I drink so I just dont know what to do.

595141 tn?1239971814 Hi I quit smoking 6 weeks ago. I had smoked for 9 years (yes i was a young starter) When I tried to quit before I found it really difficult coz it felt like I was missing out on something (if that makes sense?) then a friend told me about this book called Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking: Be a Happy Non-smoker for the Rest of Your Life. I read it and that really helped me. Its hard to explian but if you read it with an open mind it will work.
Avatar f tn I know how hard it is to stop smoking. I smoked since i was 11 and quit for my kids when i was 24 and i swore i would never touch one again..hated the smell..couldnt stand been around anyone who smoked..hated seeing ppl in the street smoking. Then one night whilst on holiday with family i got very drunk and had a cigarette and from that moment i slipped back into it so easily..i smoked every day for another cpl of month and then i found out i was pregnant with baby no4.

303706 tn?1296876149 I don't know if it's just me but it seems like lately we've been getting these "prank" posts or posts that are just made to stir up an argument. Posts that are posted with the stories all mixed up and the poster never responds back(it's like whoever is posting these is sitting back and having a laugh), and here alot of us are voicing our opinions on it, even sometimes stirring up drama between women. I just feel like "where is the respect".
