How Can I Quit Smoking?

cold turkey. I quit after smoking for about 15 yrs. Ang pinakamahirap is the first two weeks. Sa akin ang effect, nagigising ako sa gabi. After the two weeks, medyo nag-normalize na tulog ko. Things to avoid when you're quitting are - pag-inom ng alak, beer and umiwas ka muna sa mga kaibigan mong nag-yo-yosi.

I'm off and on. I quit one time, I told my girlfriend that I had a gift for her. I took her to the cliffs of Tagaytay going to Peoples park after the Rotonda. I stopped the car at the cliff. It was at night, a little windy, stars were out, and the lights at the town below were twinkling. She asked why I stopped, I told her to get out of the car, I had something to show her. I pulled out my cigarettes and one by one I threw them off the cliff. I told her to give me a hand, and she took a few and threw them off the cliff as well. I yelled as I threw each one.."I don't need you anymore!" ..."I'm finished with you!"

 

3 months later, she was at my house in the room. I decided to take a shower and decided to light up 1 cigarette. I washed my mouth after smoking and even put soap in my mouth to erase the stench of the cigarette. I came back into the room and she kissed me. She had a weird look on her face, and she kissed me again. I was caught! She got angry at me and even threatened that she didn't want me anymore. After a long night of fighting and apologizing and crying, she gave me another chance. Even til now, I can't stop smoking. It's easy to quit for a month, but the thing is, 3, 4, 5, 6 months later.. you're still craving for a cigarette. Some times the craving is minimal, other times you just want to light up. I think it's a life long process. Once a smoker, you're always a smoker..you have that smoker's mentality still..even if you haven't smoked for years. It's tough, but I'm really trying to stop.

try the nicotine patch which is available at the mercury drugstore...nicotine will be absorbed into your blood from the patch thus lessening the nicotine craving, do it everyday for 3 months...you'll be cigarette free after that, of course with discipline and determination.
