I have tried quitting smoking a few times now and a couple of weeks into it, i get stressed out because i am eating so much, get upset with myself and end up smoking !!! Has anyone got any ideas on something i can get to distract myself from smoking and pigging out??

Edwardo

Janyce

Giuseppe

Im just wondering cuz i used to drink alot and smoke, and I havent for 7 weeks now cuz Im preg, and its so hard. I was just wondering who else had to quit drinking/smoking?

Dwight

I really need to do both. The thing is my kids do not know I smoke, and they have never seen me smoke, and I have never ever smoked anywhere near them… It’s a big secret my husband has been helping me keep. He smokes and is stick thin. I’m not so lucky, and can’t afford to gain weight. I do eat when I’m bored.. and I’m afraid I’ll blimp out if I try to quit all together all at once. Need answers!

My younger brother is sixteen, and has been smoking for over eight years. I never knew about it until just last summer. Now, he is trying to quit, thank heavens. He’s just not sure how to go about it. Our uncle went cold turkey, my mother underwent hypnotism. He’s asked me for advice, but I’ve never smoked before, so I have no idea how to help him. I was just wondering your opinions on what works best.

I’m 22 and have smoked ever since i was 18. I am a socially sensitive person (self-counscious, no self-confidence, easlily hurt, **** uncomfortable eyecontacts, always dont know what to say….you name it!) so i get really stressed out when i have to face all the people in school and smoking has always been my only way of relaxing. Like all smokers i know smoking is very bad for me, and like most smokers i have wanted to quit for a long time but havent been able to. More than my other smoking friends, tobacco has effected my health in a really obvious way already. I get constant heart aches, my voice is always dry, i get head aches, throat pains and lately i got bronchitis. Even though, i still cant quit. I have tried exercising but if i move too much i cant breathe. I feel like i really need thoses freaking ciggs to make it through each day. So what should i do? I cant quit or take a yr off from school it is really not an option. More confidence? Dont think that i havnt tried.

Bessie

I know that I need to quit and I have tried many times. What have you tried and found to be the most successful solution?

Darwin

I have tried several times and each time go a little longer than the previous, but I don’t want to mess around for a couple of days, or a week. I want to be done with it.

PLEASE! I will entertain any and all tips and tricks from anyone who has fought this monkey and gotten rid of the habit.

Lenny

I been smoking for about 8 years now. Im 23. Im in great physical shape i work out 5 days a week and i eat healthy. I been trying to quit smoking for a year now. Patches and gum simply dont work and i cant go cold turkey because i get very irritable and crancky ( i work in hospitality industry, so i cant really afford to be that way). Someone please help!!
