I quit using patches 3 weeks ago. I had no idea I could have used gum as well. Instead, I pushed through the urge. I’m very moody, it’s so comforting to know that should end in about a week for me.Very encouraging - thank you.
I quit using nicotine patches only for 3 days then I ran out and didn't replace them but survived the day without trauma, and since that day in April 1995 and today (26.02.2023), *I HAVE NEVER SMOKED SINCE* and although I get _occasional_ cravings they rapidly pass - weird 👽
Thank you for your professional guidelines. I'm nearing 30 days without a single cigarette while on NRT. Although strong cravings happen sporadically I know that I'll push through.
In my experience and also that of family members, using Nicotine gum simply changed the addiction from cigarettes to the gum. Same thing with vaping nicotine instead of smoking. IMO, in order to truly stop the addiction, all nicotine must be stopped in all forms.
has a 3% chance and unless you have an easy mode life, which so many of us don't (the exact opposite in fact) then you'll fail because of the added stress. Stress management is the most important part, people literally only smoke to feel good and if they feel good without it they will quit.
Very nice. I'll tell you, it is killing me. A 64 yo male I've become too much of a regular with the vascular surgery team. Stents, pop-bypass, another angioplasty next week. Toes all screwed up. And then yesterday my cardiologist informed me a recent echo had shown some possible blockage in my heart so they want to go in and explore. I had some success a few years ago with a simple hypnosis tape that I repeated 2x daily for 21 days and then I was free of the BS for about 3 months. I slipped just once and WHAM! It had me again. This time I am trying a similar strategy by finding presentations like this to watch on a daily basis for reinforcement. My doc pushes the patches & gum which she has given me before but I didn't use. I'm afraid I'll cheat with the patches and the gum could never stick with though the lozenges sound like a possibility. I'll keep at it though. Wonderful presentation, I'll make this my primary hypnosis tool. Lol. Thanks
The first step is telling your doctor you want to quit. Smoking tobacco isn't a moral statement about you, its a statement of fact that you have an unhealthy habit.
tried several times to quit but now on day 6 with help from patches downsides have some gum pain on day 2 3 ect but read up thats the Gums returning to normal plan is to use the pack of patches i have for 28 days then im done with nicoteen have eaten alot more gained weight but wish me well sometimes feel grumpy and tired but once this month is done i be non smoker
Thank you for the video. It is one of the most useful videos on quitting smoking out there. I am writing this 4 weeks after quitting smoking. In my case, there were 2 acute withdrawal days followed by another 5 anxiety dominated days and that is about it. I quit cold turkey... I am so happy I managed to see a video that talked about quitting smoking and anxiety beforehand so that I could rationalize my fears and make them go away. Had I not been informed I would have probably started smoking again. I was watching this movie hoping to get some tips about how to keep away from relapsing. Yesterday was my first extremely stressful day at work, and that got me really close to smoking again... Only the nice words of my wife kept me away from smoking a cigarette.
Congratulations on quitting! That takes a lot of strength and willpower! We're so happy to hear your wife helped push you through! Keep up the good work!
I am increasing my endurance these days to prepare for cold turkey jump... i have dropped from 13-15 smokes a day to 4-5 smokes a day. The issue i'm facing is that these 4 smokes are hardest to leave. Can you please tell me the qty of cigarettes you were smoking before going cold turkey? I will go cold turkey as soon as im smoking 3 cigarettes per day for 4 consecutive days, 5th day will be cold turkey.
@@Nordia16 I'm currently smoking 1 cigarette in 24 hours, I'm finding it hard to completely quit it but I'm glad that I'm down to only 1 cigarette a day. Its probably much easier to quit now and will soon take an action.
This has been so helpful in helping me understand what all the available items do, so far almost 1 month smoke free, with 2mg of gum and lozenges. Good to hear about the "parking " of the two nrt items. Thank you so much!! This is indeed the toughest time... 😳
@@providenceswedish thank you so much for your feedback, it really made my day💕💕 I'm in our Canadian bush surrounded by cheerful chickadees as I feed them seeds, my natural dopamine high! 😍🐥

Biggest mistake I ever made, was to quit smoking. I gained 140 pounds. I struggled with diet and exercise but I could not stop the weight from coming on. I went from a slim 135 pounds all the way up to a pot belly 275. That's right, I more than doubled my former body weight. My waist went from a 32 to a 50. I got kicked out of the navy for being obese and I lost my valuable retirement benefits, if I could have stayed in. I developed severe sleep apnea and I'm a borderline diabetic. Had I known I was going to get fat like this, you best believe, I'd have never quit smoking. I'd take the health hazards anytime, compared to the rest of my life, being big and fat
I'm a pack a day but the 21mg patch gets me sick. so I'm doing the 14. it worked so far for a week. bad cravings but only triggered when I normally would smoke. previous times to this I lived with my parents who smoked and always cheated then just smoked fully shortly after. this time I live with my girlfriend so no cigs in the hows. took a week off of work and work is usually pretty stress free. wish me luck
@@providenceswedish off the patch now. Havnt smoked sense I quit about 5 weeks ago no nicotine for now 3 days I'm doing well. 13 years of smoking and this is longest by far I've been without one
I quit smoking, using electricity stick non nicotine for 35 days. Then no smoking and go though mental withdraw... Now is 55 days, I drink alchoho will become so angry. So don't drink for 3 month, now 55 days no carving
I started smoking when I was 9. I quit when I was 47. I know how hard it is. It took an ugly act of god to force me to quit. I had tobacco induced bronchitis. It was so bad I could not breathe and it nearly killed me. I started to chew the gum and the doctor gave me some antibiotics. The doctor told me that in about three days something disgusting was about to happen to me. I started coughing up this ugly black tar. The tar would come out of my lungs and then seep down into my stomach. This mixed with the acid in my stomach and I absolutely exploded with a mixture of infectious tar and stomach bile. I puked my guts out for three days! It was really easy to quit after that. That taste is indescribable. You can do it. Do it any way you can. Don't be an idiot like me and quit the "easy" way. Good luck!

I QUIT SMOKING COLD TURKEY AFTER 30 YRS OF SMOKING IN FEB 2017 BUT I AM STILL HAVING ANXIETY & A HUNG BRAIN. I DON'T WISH TO GO BACK TO SMOKING. CAN YOU PLEASE SUGGEST A HERB OR A ROOT THAT I CAN HAVE TO STIMULATE MY BRAIN, LIKE NICOTINE USED TO,. I WILL NOT HAVE ANY ALLOPATHIC MEDICINES FOR THIS AS THEY ARE PURE POISON. PL HELP ME IF YOU CAN. THANKS
Try and adaptogen for anxiety like ashwagandha. For mental focus try lions mane, corsyceps, chaga, and reishi. Those are all natural herbs and mushrooms you can get in supplement form online.
3g tyrosine and 1g NAC in the morning gave me a little pep for a few days when quitting. NAC is good for rewiring reward pathways and clearing the lungs and removing inflammation. Tyrosine is a precurser to dopamine which is the reward chemical.
why did they take away the shorter Winstons, They never gave me chest pains like 305 blues do. I would smoke 5-6 a day after work or in the garage- . Now there/they are water tobacco that makes me cough. Did they do that on purpose just to get people to stop smoking.
23:30 the argument against vaping versus prescription inhalers didn't sound very convincing. Sounded more like someone protecting their financial gains.
I got A's in organic chemistry because I was a druggie. Premeds in ochem caused runescape cop to switch to mechanical engineering because he knew as a jock mechanics and electric circuits are the basis of our God given rights, not chemicals.
a. The Swedish Cancer Institute? Why does that sound and the logo look like like an Infomercial claim? b. Why does someone purporting to be Swedish speak with no accent when speaking English? And, wear a belt that looks like something an outlaw biker would wear? c. Is this a woman, man with long hair acting like a woman, or a lesbian--not that there's anything wrong with that. d. So as a "scientist," you dismiss how e-cigarettes administer nicotine but have no problem with nicotine patches and gum. Yeah, right!
Only about 20% of the nicotine from cigarettes is actually introduced through your lungs into your blood system. NRT s are close to 100% of what's there , maybe that's why, anyways let's quit ;)

How is the quitting going?
Did you ?
For some reason I really believe you 😊
Excellent video the first time I watched it I reduced 70 per cent of my cigarrettes consumes thank you
I lied to my Dr and said I don't smoke because I did quite but then started again and didn't tell the doctor. Now I'm afraid to come clean.
They already knew because you smelled like it. Hope you quit again
