[i]I thought of this topic bec.I have an office mate who tries really hard to quit but she couldn't.She is really having a hard quitting the habit.
I too personally is having a hard time.So to mylotters out there could you give us suggestions how you quit.I sometimes eat candies instead of getting a stick of cigarette.Esp. at the office it's really hard if you see people smoking.I know the disadvantages,it's a given fact already and that's already an obvious reason for us in order to quit but do you have different ways of stopping the habit?
Response highly appreciated.Thanks.[/i]

to quit smoking, you should be disciplined. i smoke too, but i can make it in a day or even a week without smoking. i just want to smoke when i all my friends are smoking, and they usually do when we are on break. well, guess there are just a lot of smokers in the office!hehehe you should have a reason why you should stop. like you dont want to compromise you health because of you smoking habit, or because you dont want your children to do the same, and things like that. do it for yourself and for the people you love, then it will be a whole lot easier!

I think the better way to stop smoking is by reducing it slowly. I am a chain smoker and if I try to give it up suddenly now, I am having health problems.

Its hard of course however if you have determination and motivation, as well as support from people: nothing is impossible.

I think one way would be what you just said, candies or I would suggest bubble gums or lollipops. Also I think it would really be hard to stop smoking right away. A good thing would be try to lessen the smoke you make each day and try to have some other things to do. Hope this helps. :)

As i m a non smoker person i dont ans this so perfectly. but i know it is difficult for a smoker to quit smoking instance. They need time to quit smoking. One of my frnd named mamun is a chain smoker. He always promise me to quit smoking but he dont. once he is without smoking about 15 days. But he failed to quit. Do u know that his girlfrnd will leave him for smoking. i think u imagine how difficult it is to quit smoking

I quit smoking the middle of July with the help of Chantix. I had tried to stop before using different methods, but none were as effective for me as Chantix. It really helps with the nicotine cravings. Your friend may want to discuss it with her doctor and see if Chantix is the right method for her.
