Smoked for 10 years. Started to get the old phlem and coughing a little more than I would like. Go to the docs and he perscribes me some shit. Can't remember what it was but I had to smoke with it like normal for 2 weeks and then go cold turkey. I don't know if they actually worked or if it was really just a placebo affect but I managed to quit completely. Have not touched a smoke in about 4 years now.

However I will admit that every now and then I will still get an odd craving for one. Especially during fucking anti smoking adds.

Quit for like a year but then my dog pissed on my wifi router so I had no internet for a while and started smoking again because was too stressed out, just sorted the wifi out though so gonna quit again.

I quit two weeks ago, it feels amazing. Breathing quality and sense of taste improved after roughly a week. It feels a lot easier to perform everyday tasks and doing sports. It's definitely worth quitting and an improvement for your life.

As silly as it sounds the only way to quit cigs is to not smoke the next one. As soon as you light up again you will be re-hooked.

Quit in 1986 after being a heavy smoker for around 12 years. Haven't had one since.

I quit smoking in less than a week after I started vaping and I smoked for over 10 years.

I can smoke one after another all day, I'd probably be at 3.5 packs a day if I could afford it

Vape or snus helps.

Easier to quit slowly than cold turkey.

Allowing to smoke when drinking is better too.

Vape is shit and equally as harmful. Also hipster fags love it. They use that like a pacifier and look like dependent little pussies sucking on it all day.

>>684854523
This as a last resort. I heard it fucks with your dreams. Try a succession like this:

>cold turkey
>counseling
>nicotine lozenges / gum
>chantix

That's the tried and true method of quitting. A lot of jobs offer free counseling sessions to quit smoking. Most people quit permanently at least the second go around.

I genuinely think that only fucking retards can't quit smoking.
If you can't realise how much damage it does to you physically, mentally, socially and financially then you should just keep smoking yourself into an early grave.
Smoke the odd one when you're drunk and out with friends if you have to. You gain absolutely fuck all from them. They do nothing for you and will kill you. I smoked for around 8 years before I had someone spell it out for me. I might have one if I'm out with the boys and have been drinking, but that's like once a month.

Name one intelligent human being who smokes everyday.

>>684855761

Get youself something with high nicotine content first, otherwise it will not be satifactory and you will go back to smoking.

To start off don't think of it as quitting, it puts way too much pressure on you and if you do have a smoke you feel like you've failed and you naturally smoke more to cope with the stress. Just think of it as cutting down. The less you smoke the more your general health will improve and this will make you want to smoke less. Soon enough you won't want to smoke at all. Plus you'll have more money to blow on whatever.

Get nicotine gum, take that for a month or two. Replace with similar looking and tasting normal gum.

That's how I quit.

Just tell yourself, "hey, at least I'm not withdrawing from heroin.

I quit with nicotine chewing gum. Theyre good when youre at work, really helps with cravings.
>>
>>684856489
Yeah, that happens to some people. Also, if you put them too close to a bone, like your shoulder blades, that shit will fucking ACHE.

Switch to a cob pipe and supplement with dip, you'll probably have success. I got down to 2 pipe packs a day in 6 months, followed by a three month quit, followed by a drunk retarded redneck nearly stabbing me to death, followed by me immediately needing to smoke again.
>>
Just have one more cigarette, you know you want to.
>>
>>684854089
I know a guy who was like 60 something who quite cold turkey after smoke 3 packs a day since he was 14. You can't do it though, because you're a weak willed fagatron
>>
>>684854523
Yeah do this. It's only 6 to 7 weeks of nightmares.
>>
>>684856716

If you get addicted to chewing fucking nicotine gum then you're a weak loser who will never be able to quit smoking anyway. So you might as well just give the gum a try.

>>684854089

I quit cold turkey. That's the best way to do it.

While in the early days I just stayed away from my normal habits which would typically make me WANT to smoke more than I normally did.

1) Drinking. I stopped drinking beer for a bit.
2) Partying. I stopped going to parties for a bit.
3) Taking breaks at work. I stopped taking breaks with the people I would normally sit out back and smoke cigarettes with.

The first two things I stopped doing for at least a few weeks. The third, I just stopped taking those short breaks with those people, because generally that was the only reason they took short breaks was to smoke.

I'd say it was pretty easy to quit. You just have to have something to look forward to, maybe adjust your outlooks to perceive how they will inevitably affect you a dozen years down the line... want to exercise for more than 5 minutes at a time? Be able to run over half a block at a decent pace without sounding like you're about to die? Want to reduce the chance of not having lung disease?

Those all sounded like good reasons for me. I haven't had a cigarette in about 4 years now. The only reason I'm not saying 6 years is because I had a break up around that time those years ago and holy fuck those cigarettes felt so great.

Still love the smell, crave the taste and generally would smoke in an instant if it weren't for the health side affects and generally smelling like a piece of shit to everyone else who doesn't smoke.

I'm like this guy >>684854306 and my trick is to keep self control, and i always bear in mind that smoking is just a tic, something you really need to do in a certain moment. So first of all avid those moments (like long pauses from studying/work or idk yours) so when i have a physical need i just try something new to fill up old cigs moment: like cracking my fingers, drinking a lot of coffee, eating etc

I quit in the sense what most people consider quiting

it was relatively easy, dont buy next carton
not buying is trivial, and so goes the smoking

what is exceptionally hard and tortorous is attempt to lower your smoking intake, that was hell to me, but cold turkey was fairly easy
when craving comes, take 5 deep breathes and move on...

smoked for 10+ years, last 6 years pack a day
quit because expensive

but heres kicker, after like 2 years of completely no smoking I decided I will have yearly smoking hollydays, I smoke 2 months in the year, costs me around 250-300€
but its something I can look forward to and I actually equally enjoy quiting afterwards, after those 6-8 weeks the smoking gets in to that old habit where you smoke without enjoying it...

Anyway, cold turkey is the best
>>
I quit. Just remind yourself what Youre doing is worth it. You gotta love yourself and want it or youll go back. Also maybe try patches or vape nation

>>
I know a lot of people say it's a bad thing to do, but I like to gradually go down and smoke fewer and fewer cigarettes per day decreasing the number when you feel you are ready.
If you have rituals quit those one at a time.

For example: I used to smoke up to 20 smokes a day until i quit my morning cigarette, then my "going to bed"-smoke and so on.

Down to 3 a day now.
>>
I am on week 5 of no ciggs. Hardest parts were days 2, 3, 5, 7 and 14. Day 2-3 the physical cravings were the worst. Day 5 and 7 my mental cravings were bad. Wondered a lot if I could have fun and cope without them. Day 14 was bad cause I was reconsidering my new lifestyle and whether or not the change was really worth it. Now I have no real cravings mental or physical.

they do taste better and for good reason.

when you smoke constantly, your sense of smell is diminished greatly and that goes hand in hand with your sense of taste being dimmed. when you stop smoking, like two weeks later you start noticing your sense of smell starting to "be more sensitive" and nuanced, when in reality it was just hampered the entire time you were smoking.

its absolutely the worst recommendation ever

at least for me it was
I tried to lower my smoking from 20 a day to 10 a day
it was fucking horrible
you count, you try to spread
you dont even enjoy cigarette you light right now because you feel the upcoming hours of restriction looming over you

then I tried to go 10 a day, smoked as I please and then thats it for the rest of the day... but that lasted only few days before I started to sneak in cigarttes from the next day..

heavy smokers will feel incredibly restricted by lowering
for light smokers it matters little, there be no difference between any methods

anyway, best and prooved is cold turkey, done and done
its on absolutely different level to just not buy smokes and thats it, rather than buy some smoke and not smoke them when cravings come

Been addicted for four years. A cigarette an hour / two hours pretty much constantly that whole time. Bought a box mod (thick ass vape pen basically) three days ago... Had three cigarettes since then. Gave away a pack. It's made smoking a lot more fun. I'm a lot more addicted to nicotine and look like an asshole, but the I can feel the difference already. A cigarette now feels harsh and weak (like I said, it's only been a few days).
>>
Just step it down mate. Once you've gone from 2,5 packs to about half a pack a day, you've basically done it. After that you just have to completely cut it off. That's how i stopped for good. Fuck nicotine patches. Do it like a man and quit the fuckers if you don't want to smoke anymore.
>>
I smoke a pack a day and even that's too much

It would be easy if i were smoking packs but since i started handrolling 1 year ago the tobacco and its taste so amazing that it feels almost impossible to quit smoking. I feel bad about it but ill try smoking pipe to quit.
