    I smoked for nearly 20 years....a pack a day...sometimes more.....i started at age 15....I tried to quit many times before finally quitting for good 3 years ago...I never thought I could but I DID! I don't crave cigarettes and really dislike the smell of them now....I can't believe I walked around smelling like that for so long.....It was pretty difficult the first couple weeks but got easier and easier......Trust me ....YOU CAN DO IT!

      hey congrats first if all. i do habe a question. since you stopped smoking do you feel any different mentally, ether better or worse? is there perhaps more vitality and energy or has anything changed, like sleep habits, appetite, mood, sex drive etc.?

    I was a chain smoker and gave up overnight aged 36, in 1991. It was obviously uncomfortable giving up, as I had smoked for 22 years, but on a "pain" scale it was practically zero. I have come to the conclusion that the reason people think it is hard to give up is because it has been in the tobacco companies' interest to perpetuate that myth, to hypnotise people into the belief that it's too hard, so they continue smoking. I have to say I bought into the "it's too hard" story and tried several times to quit. The Allan Carr book "The Easy Way To Quit" was a great help, I read it through three times before giving up.

      Ho Lee Sheet you can say that about a lot of things parents do. For example climbing a mountain, going to a party and drinking too much.
      Just because someone becomes a parent doesn’t mean they automatically become this ultimate selfless perfection of a human being.
      You could become a parent and then drive 5 miles over the speed limit and there you are...you’re a selfish horrible parent who doesn’t care about safety.
      If you’re addicted to cigarettes, then becoming a parent with all it’s stresses and strains and it with being the hardest most exhausting job in the world..Then quitting can be 1000% harder then it would have been prior to parenting, especially when that quick 5 minute break outdoors with a ciggy might be your one and only vice and means of escapism in life.

    I’m 33 I’ve been smoking for 18 years from 1 pack a day to two packs a day, last year I was blessed with a baby girl and by looking at her cute smile one thought came to my mind that until now i was living for myself but now I’ve to live for my daughter. So finally in one go I QUIT and i never looked back. It’s been almost 3 months smoke free.
    I had terrible nicotine withdrawals like shortness of breath, tingling in legs and hands, dizziness, fatigue, nausea, digestive issues (indigestion, gas, bloating and acid reflux). But then something amazing happened i was able to breathe properly first time in last 18 years. My sense is taste and smell got heightened, enjoying activity in general. So quitting was the best decision that I’ve made in my life. Anyone can quit. All you need is a reason to believe and a WILL to quit. 🙏🏻🤟🏼🤞🏼

    I am 29 and i have smoked the last 5 years, it was in my final year of college that i had this terrible idea to try it, in the starting i used to smoke 4-5 cig. a day but later until recently it went till a pack a day.
    Right now i have not touched a cig for 40 hours, and i feel good. yesterday was very hard but today it feels good.
    I read Allen Carrs easy way to quit smoking and now think i want to get rid of this pathetic crutch we call smoking, so i quit cold turkey 40 hours ago, i am keeping myself on track by watching every video possible about quitting smoking in these initial days and it is helping me greatly
    I hope anyone reading this gets the motivation to quit.

    I smoked for about 18 years on and off and I quit 2 years ago and I feel amazing today!! I watch videos and read articles to remind myself why I quit, and honestly, it's easy when I go for a walk or hike up and down stairs - or when I swim now. I feel healthier, stronger and younger! The freedom from nicotine is the best feeling in the world, I am stronger mentally as well. Once you quit and get through the first few days, I promise you it will get easier! I power walked to keep my mind on why I was quitting, then I got a cheap treadmill a friend had, literally cheap like $100.00 and it became my best friend and still is today! Now walking is my fix, when I am feeling down or depressed I walk and it's been my saving grace!

  • @richardvaughan9994
    @richardvaughan9994 5 років тому +6

    I am 30... I’ve smoked since I was about 12.....I think about quitting every single day..... I’ve been an addicted drinker since I was about 16, I drank every single day till I was about 21, I quit drinking, havent drank a drop since the age of 21, I got caught up on Percocet for about a year then got on the methadone to try to get off the pills.... I got at a stable dose of 95MG where I could function without withdrawals..... I’m now at 12MG and have been tapering down weekly. I have the drive to quit all the drugs I was doing, coke, extacy, mushrooms, drinking, pills, All of it, I haven’t done any drugs or drank in years....
    I think about my health everyday I have anxiety that I’m going to die, I think about how poorly I’ve treated my body all those years and it saddens me to think I was un appreciative of being blessed with a healthy working body’ knowing I’ve been destroying it. Out of all of this stuff smoking has been the hardest to quit. I get motivated everyday, I even rip cigarettes in half to try and lesson the nicotine intake. I’m just depressed probably cause I’m tapering off the methadone which makes my emotions go all over the place. I really want to quit smoking and have my body be free of all the pollution and finally see what it’s like to feel like the real me for once in my fucking life... just to have a clean body and mind where I can think and do things for myself without it being altered by whatever poison is in my body. I’m going to fight and punch back every damn day I don’t care what it takes I’ll lock myself in a room if I have to, just hope I can make it guys,
    I hope I can do this. Please say a prayer for me, I’m sorry I was so uncaring and reckless with the treatment of my health!

    I started smoking at age 15. When I was about 26 years old I had just bought my first house and after a few months of living there I decided to install a hardwood floor. I got to work one morning and was on a roll. Ran out of cigarettes at about 5pm but didn't want to stop to go to the store for another pack. Worked on the floor till bed time. Went to sleep, woke up and got right back to it. By the end of the day I realized that I had gone for a day and a half without a cigarette, and I was probably at the worst of it so I decided to keep going to see if I could stop. Over the next couple of weeks I started chewing gum and smoking little cigars called "Backwoods Smokes" without inhaling. A few weeks later I stopped that and have been smoke free for over 40 years. I am so glad that I quit when I did. If not, I may have been dealing with lung cancer or heart problems these days. Quit that stinkin habit!

  • @MrMetalclay
    @MrMetalclay 5 років тому +4

    I'm preparing myself to quit smoking again. Last time was in 2014, I quit for a year. I've been really focused on how much I don't like the resin taste. I think it would be best to start quiting as of going to bed. When you get up in the morning, don't have a smoke when you usually do, push it a half hour later. I found that when I had pushed a smoke away two hours, I'd get dizzy spells, so I imagine that the body has worked alot more in those two hours awake detoxing than in the eight hours of sleep in order to get that effect. Just keeping little mental notes on the effects, tastes, smells and overall feelings can help make logical decisions when you decide to quit. I like watching videos like this and reading the comments it really helps

Ive struggled with depression most of my adult life and i am a firm believer that my lifestyle, smoking has alot to do with it.. You have to realize that you are taking in harmal deadly chemicals that are killing you slowly.. Its had a major impact on me physically , emotionally and mentally over the years.. Im thankful for my health today and thank God i don't have cancer.. Im praying that i never have to experience it being that it runs in my family.. This is one of the hardest things ive had to do . It's been a way to cope with everyday life struggles and stress. Its not going to be easy but it will sure be worth it.. Praying for anyone who is having a hard time quitting especially with everything thats taken place over the last couple of years.. Pray for me.. God Bless !

    Today I decided after 11 years smoking, to quit.
    I have quit in my first pregnancy. The day I was told that I was pregnant, I quit it. I am very passionate smoker. My daughter was my motivation. I didn't smoke for 2 years. After that I started again. Today I am thinking about my addiction, why I need to smoke, and I came to conclusion, that my daily life is boring. The mentality that, cigarrettes as ritual, with coffee or after lunch, or with alcohol are bringing me happiness, is just a delusional.

Hearing this guys say that I will have almost the same risk as a non smoker gives me so much hope and courage to never pick it up again.

    Ive been an on and off smoker since college. Not proud of it. The one thing that helped me the most the times that I’ve quit is actually a CBD vapor pen.

    34 years old. I quit 2 days ago. I hear the first 72 hrs are the hardest. I’m determined. Had my last cigarette Tuesday night about 9pm. It’s now 4am Friday morning. I’m doing it cold turkey. No medical nicotine replacements. I just stopped.

    I quit for four years.. Had a few drinks one night and took a few drags off a cigarette. One year later been trying to quit on and off ever since. It's a tough thing to break. Wish you all the best of luck with quitting. I am going to continue to try as well.

    I'm 27 started smoking an year ago. Now I will set a mark to stop this destructive habit. I will do so by not spending a single dime on smoking to motivate me. I had a run with it and I don't want to feel the consequences so I believe its time to stop and be responsible. I was a casual smoker not a chain smoker and I have the will to stop myself from going down that spiral. Wish me luck.
