Quit smoking
Do you think it’s better to quit smoking cold turkey or using nicotine patches? Thank you.

Is Parkinson's disease a lifestyle disease? 1. Parkinsonian lifestyle (higher risk).
(Excerpt from the book I am writing now. I hope you find it useful). Is Parkinson's disease a lifestyle disease? 1. Parkinsonian style (increased risk of developing the disease) I have less and less doubts about the existence of a "Parkinsonian" way of life, which predisposes and increases the risk

Advice please
I have smoked since I was 13. I'm 35 now. I stopped once for 5 years then started again a year ago. I smoke more than ever now and can really feel the effects. I so desperately want to stop but I can't use nicotine patches I've had bad reactions to them. I can't go cold turkey because I become a monster

Stopping smoking
I’m on day 18, I am all over the place. I feel forgetful at times and just have moments I feel so awful in myself. My skin is worse, I’ve put weight on. I don’t know how to handle the cravings. I’ve got a vape and nicotine patches, can anyone advise anything more that could work please?

Vitamin D the sunshine vitamin
A study was done on breast cancer patients and found that most were lacking in vitamin D. I am a breast cancer survivor I take 8000 vitamin D daily. It is not too far-fetched to feel that most autoimmune problems also are related to a lack of vitamin D as many people with this problem live in the Pacific

Recent ex-smoker, first time poster
Hello! I have been meaning to find a community since I started so I stop boring my roommates with details. I also work in a creative tech industry where people get defensive and shamed when anyone talks about trying to get healthier. :p This is my third time trying, but the first time it’s stuck for

DO YOU FIND SMOKING RELAXING? HERE ARE 5 REASONS WHY.
Feeding the
nicotine
addiction
will obviously reverse these effects and make you feel calmer and so because of this, you begin to associate smoking with feeling relaxed.

Hi I'm new to posting! Looking for advice on nicotine patches 😊
Hi everyone! I'm just finishing day 10 of being smoke free using nicotine patches and hoping for some advice from those who have quit using this method before 😊. Originally I started using step 1 of niquitin clear strips which I found a nightmare. The strips fell off almost constantly and they were

I'm also not sure if this makes my quitting experience different from those who had
nicotine
addiction
prior to using QM.

Truthfully, creating a lasting change in life is tough enough (for me at least) without the added burden of
nicotine
addiction
making it even harder. That said, it is NEVER too late to quit and it IS absolutely worth the effort.

Quit smoking
Does anyone find nicotine patches useful? If so to what extent? And do they compensate for the desire of the harshness of the cigarette.

Ongoing struggle
I keep giving up and starting up again. I get stressed out by something and the urge to smoke overwhelms me. I've have success with the nicotine patches and currently on the quick mist spray. I had been smoke free for two weeks, I find it really hard to control morning cravings especially when I make

Never expected it to be easy and it ain't
I am new to this forum and quit smoking on the 27th October having smoked 30 a day for pretty much all my adult life...I am 62 years old. This was prompted by a heart failure scare following a high blood pressure reading and visit to cardiologist. I feel very determined, and will certainly make full

Giving up the NRT
After the bad experience with the nicotine patches, feeling jittery and sick, I removed it half way through day one and decided to use only the inhalator. I only used that yesterday in the morning and after my evening meal. But it was the worst night sleep ever. I normally sleep through every night.

Read about

and do the work to change the way you perceive cigarettes. They are instruments of death. They deserve nothing more than your disdain. Seek support and above all, be patient with yourself. Allow as much time as you need to heal from

The Safety of Being a Social Smoker
As an occasional smoker, you run the risk of
nicotine
addiction
forcing you into an ever-increasing need for more. Tobacco in any amount is bad for you, so cut your risk while you're not heavily addicted and quit now.
