Reviews Of Stop Smoking Products

My parents have been smoking for years. I have asthma and I have a 3 year old little brother. My parents try not to smoke around us and used to smoke out of our chimney in the winter. But now we just moved into a new house, and there is no fireplace so they just smoke in the house. They Can’t afford to use those quit smoking programs and buying cigarettes 3 times a day doesn’t help. They are truly amazing people, but smoking isn’t really making a good influence on others esapecially my brother and I. How can I get them to stop smoking?

When I was kid I used to throw my parents cigarettes down the toilet. They both ended up quitting. True story.

i am trying to quite smoking, its been 3 days but i failed misrably when i found cigs in my draw which i didnt know about but i also have 2 left and i keep thinking if i finish those 2 i wont buy any more and ill stop properly.. but just thinking about it makes me feel guilty.. ive always smoked outside beause i have 2 young children.. my daughter boasted to her teacher yesterday saying "mummy stopped smoking am so proud of her" .. i felt soo happy.. please tips am getting very snappy and annoyed with myself. thanks in advance!

Don’t let the smoke beat you. Enjoy your life

I have been smoking cigarettes for 10 years now, i have cut down to the light ones 1mg and i smoke around 20 per day. I am TTC now and am finding it so difficult to quit. My partner is a smoker also and this makes it even harder, he says he will quit when i do. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

You need to be firm with your partner. You want to quit – and seeing other people smoke is even worse for you.

If you haven’t already, ban smoking inside the house. From now on, make yourself and your partner smoke outside. This kind of "breaks" some habits (smoking first thing in the morning, smoking after a meal) and makes breaking more easier.

After a meal and first thing in the morning, try to force yourself to go an extra 30 min to an hour without allowing yourself a cigarette. The more "habits" you break, the easier it will become to cut back dramatically. When you are down to say… five cigarettes a day – imagine how much easier it will be to cut down to 2.. then 1… . then … poof! No more.

The key is to break habits. Yes there is nicotine addiction – but I found that the urge to light up in the car, during coffee, after meals, etc was stronger just because i would associate those things with cigarettes. Forcing myself NOT to light up immediately really helped with phasing it out all together.

Is it an actual side effect of nicotine leaving your body? I have quit smoking a million times and usually find myself lighting back up cause I can’t stand the misery.

But this time i’ve lasted over a month. I feel great. I’m not depressed anymore. Tho i’ve had heaps of bad shit happen to me while trying to quit, i’m pretty happy.

But my poor husband gave up smoking 4 days ago. And he’s miserable. Everything to him is negative. I hate to see him this way. I was that way too!

Is there anything to help him not be depressed. Or do you just have to get through those evil 2 weeks without smoking and it will go away. Is there a magic vitiman?

When you are a regular smoker your brain gets used to the nicotine. Once you quit it creates a chemical imbalance in your brain because you took away a chemical that has become part of the regular system. This most likely causes headaches, depression, and cravings. It is also why using gum and other methods that have some nicotine in them help people quit. It reduces the amount of nicotine slowly over time to help the brain functions learn to balance and operate without the nicotine. I would recommend just using one of those systems offered in drug stores or use your own such as going from say a pack a day to half a pack for a week then a quarter of a pack for the next week to 2 a day for a week to one a day for a week then one every other day for a week to none. This way the brain should balance out and he should be much healthier and happier! Good Luck!

I really want to quit smoking, does anybody have any advice or can tell me what to expect?

It wasnt hard for me, I’m an alcoholic though, and it’s horribly difficult to stop. I imagine smoking and alcoholism is about the same difficulty level to stop.
