6 months and counting!
Hey peeps how is everyone? I do hope your all still smoke free! :-) I thought you would like to know I'm six months smoke free today! Yay for me. I still would like a ciggy to be honest although I know how much damage this will cause me. I'm also still coughing up tar, not as much as I have been

A while ago I put the following post on. It may help some of you who have just started to quit. :_ Dealing with Cravings Even though you’ve officially quit smoking, the urge to smoke may come and go. Many times, cravings can result from being hungry, angry, lonely, tired, or bored. Think back to

Stopped the Patches now!! Whoop WHoop!!
I'm on day 58 today of Not smoking, and I have been a week without the NRT patches. I didn't cut them down from the high dose to the low dose, I just forgot to put one on one day, and the next day I thought to myself, that I didn't need them anymore, so hence NO MORE patches!! I still chew the 4mg gum

A few facts on quitting etc.
How would you feel if I told you that with every cigarette comes a dose of insecticide, car exhaust, gas chamber poison, ant poison, floor cleaner, mothballs, and nuclear weapons? Probably not great. The following have been found to help make-up cigarettes: Insecticide – nicotine Car exhaust – carbon

Trying to quit number 500 (okay, not literally but feels like it)
So I know cold turkey won't work, always fails quickly. The nicotine gum just tastes horrible. I had a decent 3 week attempt with patches, but made the mistake to quit early and ended up back on the cigarettes. When I tried the patches again, found that my reaction to them was severe (my arm literally

Saw this interesting article in the paper this week, which I thought might interest people.
"Smokers who believe that their habit relieves stress and depression are mistaken, according to research. A study found that the effect of quitting smoking was the same, if not better, in tackling mental health problems such as depression and anxiety as taking antidepressants. The team of researchers

My Quit September 2013 My name is Ian. I have been smoking since I was around 17 years old. I’m now 39 which makes it around 22 years I’ve smoked. I have smoked many things in those 22 years, but it was mainly tobacco, around 20-30 roll-ups per day. I’ve had always enjoyed smoking. I actually liked
