I previously tried to
quit
before using Chantix and
quit
smoking
for 1 month , b it I was unable to tolerate the increased dose of the medication and failed as everyone in my life seems to smoke and I caved into again as a matter of routine.

Quit Smoking Attitude
I was a chain smoker. one fine day I quit and today is 7th day. It's not impossible, justa matter of realising that you rule your mind. People aeound me rather than encouraging me, mock my decision calling it temporary and all. But my body is under my control. I must congratulate folks out there who

16 months !!
Hi everyone, it's been ages since I have been on this site but I wanted you all to know that I am a non smoker!!! 16 months now since I gave up and it's not been easy. I put on weight, developed borderline diabetes etc but I can honestly ask myself why I didn't give up sooner. there are no smelly clothes

quit smoking gained weight
Hi Guys, I have
quit
smoking
2 and a half months ago and seemed to gain 2and a half stone :( I desperately need to loose weight as I have a long term back problem and carrying this extra weight is really not helping.

Running away from Smoking
But the facts are simple - it's just over one year since I
quit
smoking
and started running and even though I've bought rather a lot of running shoes, a gps watch, shorts, t-shirts, etc.

Is changing your behaviour really that important?
Evidence shows that if a smoker uses a service such as
Quit
Support, their local stop
smoking
service or NRT (or both), then they are more likely to still be stopped at 4 weeks. If they stop for at least 28 days, then they are more likely to stay stopped longer.

Is it primary of secondary or do I have polycythemia at all , no doctor is able to confirm ?
I have been
smoking
for last 8 years, but have
quit
smoking
for last two months. The levels still does not seem to have reduced. My oxygen saturation level is however at 99 , but doctor says it will take 15 , 20 years for a person with secondary polycythemia to show lower oxygen levels.

Smoking and thyroid - Thyroid and smoking.
Understanding the mechanisms that contribute to the addictive properties of nicotine makes it possible to target them to prevent the initiation of
smoking
behavior and/or increase the chance of successful
quit
attempts.

Hi everyone, I gave up smoking 2 weeks and 4 days ago. I was really poorly with a chest infection and I was really scared with the wheezing in my chest, that I thought "why the hell " am I still trying to inhale nicotine, so I've gone cold turkey since then. I feel so much better, no wheezing at all

PBC and smoking
I have
quit
smoking
since my AMA has come back positive. My question is, does anyone know if a HISTORY of smoking has a huge effect on PBC?? I'm so scared that my history of smoking will cause the the PBC progress faster than usual or something.

Anxiety 101
I'm 35,recently had my gallbladder removed and have suffered for almost if not more than a year with anxiety, to a point that I
quit
smoking
. I have my bad days depending on what stress I have had to endure during the day as well as what I eat. Anyone else like me or similar?

4 Months without Mr. Nic!
Part of me does miss being able to vent my frustration by
smoking
(vaping) at my desk in the office. I
quit
the e-cig March 19th (at about 10:00pm). The first month was very difficult (with about weeks 2 & 3 being the hardest for me). I haven't had Mr. Nic since then!

Smoke smell on others after quitting
I have
quit
smoking
by using a e cig and going to a hypnotherapy session. I was a heavy smoker of 40 a day and have now not touched a cigarette for 3 months. However, I have the most huge cravings sometimes but I bash them away and power through!

Still going strong! (Cold and flu feelings :( )
So I quit cold turkey halfway through Monday, It's friday now and I'm still going great! I'm not longer getting quite so emotional or fidgety, and in fact things feel great! I took a cd out of the cd player and realised I could smell the heat of the cd and the player, and I was like "Woah!", then I ran

Quitting can be easy, ish..lol
Allen carr's easy way to
quit
smoking
explains it very well. Also I realised that the withdawral is nothing more than a very mild version of a hangover. And if you can cope with a hangover for a couple of days without having a drink to delay the hangover then you can
quit
smoking
for good.

I start the 14mg patches tomorrow! Will it be easier for me to quit since I've only been smoking for 4 months...
I started out smoking once a day for about a month, then 2-3 the next month, eventually I got up to 6-8 a day. Will it be easier for me to quit?
