I quit 5 years ago, I used patches, it was very difficult though, I smoked almost 3 packs a day. I can't tell you how much better I feel now though 5 years later! It was so worth the hard times!

theres a homeopathic called stop smoking that decreases your desire in time

Do you think using the patch is cold turkey...I think you could try the patch, or just try reducing your intake bit by bit daily.

[rpse1927]

yes you can quit smoking by seeing a professional. they can help.

I quit smoking four days ago thanks to vaping. I only use the VG based liquid as the PG is very bad for you. The smell of cigarettes are now foul to me and I used to be a two pack a day smoker. I am slowly cutting back on vaping and will eventually quit. The tax on cigarettes in Nevada is going up a dollar a pack so I'm glad I Vape now. I'm in Las Vegas BTW.

My mom died from cancer caused by cigrettes the day before her 53rd b'day.

That was before there were warnings and the cool Marlboro Man was in the ads (who also died from smoking).

It also killed my 42 Year old son two years ago, who had four teen-age daughters who to this day are emotionally affected deeply to this day.  We all miss him tons.

It ain't worth it, but the quitting is a blessing to everyone who loves you.

I wish you the best.

Congratulations! I smoked for about five years before I started my journey to quiting. So far two years without a single stinky. It was harder then I thought it would be, I tried cold turkey, Itried gum and patchs. None worked, I did get a e cigarette. Im down to the lowest nocotine and plan to go off nicotine next month. After that It will be weening my self from never picking up the vapor pen again. So fair its worked slowly but surely. I dont even use it as much as I used to.

Cold Turkey is the way, even if you have to try over and over. I did and finally on July 4, 1964 I did it, cold turkey. Both my younger siblings didn't and they are both dead from smoking.

Amen to this. I never smoked seriously. I kind of puffed on them when I was a teenager and wanted to look cool.  However, I always dropped them and didn't look cool at all so I stopped. I think that was a definite blessing. 

Most of the people I know that have quit just made up their minds to do it. I think if you REALLY want to quit, you can.  Maybe avoid the situations where you always smoked before. I've heard that is effective.

oldbuddy, I'm sure sorry about your younger siblings.
