Tips for quiting smoking

well I've been smoking for about 4 and a half years...and I think it's about time I quit but everytime I try I fail. I was just wondering how other people quit and what trick's n shit worked for them.

im the same way im trying to quit smoking as well

and i think a good way not the best way but a good way is to limit urself where if u smoke when ur only bored then go do something like a walk or something else...that's when i smoke the most is when im bored and there is nothing else to do...I also switched brands where i use to smoke du marier and now i smoke du marier light....

its corney to say but if u really want to stop you can...

some people say its also the physcological part of saying "quitting" smoking insted of "stopping"

it all depends on u i guess...but i wish u luck and hope that u succeed! :)

Don't have a cigarette. Stupid but simple, until you utterly convince yourself that you are not going to, you'll always be able to talk yourself into 'one last smoke'.

Maybe tape some pictures of cancer autopsies up on your bathroom mirror to help motivate you.

Hang out with your non smoking friends more.
Carry some carrot sticks with you and if you get the urge to smoke nibble on those instead.
Find something else to keep your hands busy (a friend of mine seriously took up knitting, and it worked!).

I switched to a brand of smokes I didnt particularly like, after a few weeks I got sick of em and I just sorta stopped smoking alltogether, cant say it'll work for you, but I know it worked for me, I havent touched a cigarette since I quit, and it was my first attempt at quitting. Will power above all else is what you really need, good luck and godspeed.

well all i did was went cold turkey.. but it was random.. one of those days where i was like ok im not gonna smoke today.. and now i just smoke when i drink (i still haven't conquered the drunkness state of wanting to smoke) but i dont smoke when im sober.. even if i have a full pack now.. if u try to ease off of it.. i noticed its hard cuz your still getting that fix.. so imo i think cold turkey works best

just fuckin stop all together... dont associate with anyone that smokes until you can be around cigs without needing to smoke.

have some gum or a toothpic to put in your mouth when you want a smoke.. As soon as you have your craving make sure you got something to occupy your mouth and mind.

good luck.. its not the easiest thing to do..

but sit and think.. do you want cancer.. do you want poeple to know how much you stink after you have a smoke. After i quit i never realized how much smokers stink..

i think the number one tip is you have to WANT to quit.

i've known quite a few people who quit cold turkey, and while im not saying its easy, hell i still smoke.. it seemed like all they needed was to REALLY WANT to quit.
