Avatar m tn stopping an addiction is the most difficult so dont get down on urself if u try but fail continue to try, wear a rubber band and whenever u think abut snus flick it on ur wrist and do another adtivity, it seems painful but eventully ur brain will put two and two together meaning snus is pain
Avatar f tn the odds of getting oral cancer is much higher with dip than smoking. it also can cause gum disease. this can be painful and cause his teeth to fall out. cosmetically his tooth enamel can turn brown and dip promotes bad breath. so first he will be unattractive and smelly then he could become toothless and cancer ridden.
Avatar n tn Have you ever considered using Snus instead of smoking, I know its still tobacco but its not as harmful. That might help you out in the long run... Its called General Snus and mint and mini mint are excellent.
Avatar f tn Now i just need to quiet Smoking.
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 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 Hey everybody..I was wondering if anyone have successfully quit smoking using e-cigs and if so how do they work and what do you think of them? I have done a lot of research on them and read pretty good stuff. I realized that for me I am more addicted to the oral fixation than the nicotine. I need to be able to put something in my mouth and blow out smoke as I quit. The patch and gum just dont work for me. Thanks ahead of time for your advice.
Avatar f tn we are only human so take it slow ok? I found the patch really helped me. I quit during both my pregnancies using the patch. I wish I hadn't started again after giving birth but I feel good knowing my babies grew inside me without nicotine and all the other **** going into their systems. Now I'm going to get off oxys and once I've been clean for at least a few months I'll quit smoking. i wouldn't dream of doing both at the same time.
Avatar f tn it is hard for me to quit smoking cigartee it is easy for me to stop drinking alchol and using drug becuase i attend to na and aa meeting i really want to quit smoking i am scare to get liver cancer is there any way i can quit smoking ?? should i buy niction patch ??
Avatar n tn My mother in law also quit smoking using hypnosis. (It didn't work for my bother in law though) I know several other people who have used e cigarettes to quit because they could control the nicotine and slowly decreased their dose until it was 0.
Avatar m tn I personally believe that all those aids are another way of transferring an addiction. I know people still chewing nicorette after years of using it to quit. I heard on the news that the patches are worthless in the longterm but beneficial in the short term. I was always allergic to those, the gum was nasty, being one with depression the chantex was way off limits for me, the e-cig just compounded my WANT for a real cigarette altho they were kind of fun for awhile.
1327604 tn?1281866607 I have heard many stories like mine and some worse. In the end, I quit smoking using Chantix and it worked for me but there are so many that have suffered from side effects that they have linked to the drug. Those who quit cold turkey will advocate it. The whyquit website supports a CT quit but you don't have to in order to read the articles. In the end, whatever method you choose, you have to commit to it and stay strong.
Avatar f tn Same here I've been using a vape with out nicotine but if the craving is really bad I'll smoke a half. It helps I'm down to 5 a day rather than half a pack. It is really hard though.
Avatar f tn I quit smoking June 2012 after smoking for many years. Congrats on your decision to quit. I wouldn't necessarily call smoking a "crutch" since you were doing it while using. I would face it independently from your opioid use. Having said that...maybe waiting a tad bit longer to where you have some more clean time under your belt so its easier to handle. Just an idea...I waited until I had been clean for 2 years 4 months before I quit smoking. You dont want to overwhelm yourself....
Avatar f tn s more harm to the baby. I quit smoking when I found out, but my doctor did tell me that if you want to quit you should slowly get yourself off of them.
692600 tn?1228005228 I have not smoked for 1 year and 4 months now. I quit by using nicorette. My problem is I have gained 20 lbs and I am just so depressed about it. I belong to a gym and go regularly, I am a lifetime member of Weight Watchers, which I was at my goal for 2 years until I stopped smoking. Now all I want to do is eat! I love to cook, bake and create new recipes and my mother owns a german bakery/restaurant.
Avatar f tn i quit the day i found out i was pregnant, if u really care for the health of ur child theres no excuse to not quit smoking. just do it.
Avatar n tn What if one is TRYING to quit smoking, has told the dr they have quit...and the dr does a blood test and finds nicotine in the test...??? and they are actually trying - but using nicotine gum to try to ward off the cravings??? does the gum count against that person as well??? and what if a blood test was also required for insurance purposes??? would the gum affect anything??? if i'm not making much sense, i will clarify if someone wants / needs it...thanks for any assistance...
Avatar f tn i was smoking vapor cigs before i got pregnant and when sickness kicked in i couldn't stand the smell of the vapor, now my husband smokes vapor and it kills me.but to quit cigarettes im not sure :/ try using vapor so it's a little safer and try a flavor you don't like, you'll eventually stop.
Avatar f tn I have cut my smoking down to only about 2 a day and my doctor is very pleased about that since I was smoking about a pack a day when I found out I was pregnant. I was using an ecig at first to try to quit, but my doctor said that those can actually be a lot more harmful.
Avatar f tn I quit smoking ASA I fell pregnant too I'm 30 weeks now and still every now and then when I've done everything and before I sit down to relax I really feel like one...
Avatar f tn I quit cold turkey and I use to chain smoke I'm 11 weeks now and feel better ^^^
Avatar f tn I tried everything to quit smoking and finally did at 22 weeks. im now 26w3d and its so nice to say i quit.

Going on walks....im here fer u if u need someone to talk to. Thatll help.
