How Can I Quit Smoking?


Recommended Posts

there is no easy way to quit, it needs to be gradual so the body's dependency of nicotine won't get shocked by the sudden removal of nicotine

 

you could follow this simple method:

 

3 sticks a day for 1 week, then 2 sticks a day for 1 week, then 1 stick a day for 1 week, then lastly 3-1 stick per week, eventually within 2 months your body would stop depending on nicotine and you can quit without any side effects

 

also try eating fresh fruits daily, an apple, banana or orange a day.

also try getting more fibre in your diet to help the cleanse

it is actually very easy.....in fact i did it several times already! laugh.gif. seriously, i don't smoke but my friend who use to be a smoker, quit cold turkey.....he endured the cravings and... will power lang talaga!....ngayon 10 years na siyang hindi nagsmoke...maybe it will help if you know somebody close to you who died of heart attack...many times they are smokers!

Hope you don't mind if I share to you some of my pointers:

 

1) RATIONALIZE: You will have to quit anyway, and why not now.

 

This means you will eventually be forced to quit since you willbe too sick to smoke.

 

2) PRAY, realize you cannot do it alone. (Pray to St. Maximillian KOLBE)

 

3) FEWadditional POINTERS:

 

a. You muststop Cold Turkey. This is the only way (tried nicotine and e-cigarrete,did not work for me).

 

b.Rationalized: It's not difficult at all. It will only take a few months foryour to get rid of smoking. Take it 1 day at a time.

 

c. Set a quitdate, choose an important date for you and your family.

 

d. Prepareyourself and your environment (this means preparing your family, friends,stocking and taking alternative remedies candies, avoid stress, etc..)

 

e. If you feelthe urge, do a "deep breathing" exercise or take a stroll or walk.What has been effective for me is to Pray the novena to st. Maximillian Kolbeevery time I feel the urge.

 

f. Once you stop never try again,not even a single stick or even a Puff

 

g. Lastly, please pass the prayerif it works for you
