chew the gum and every time you want a smoke have an image of black rotting lungs

I did it after many failed attempts. If you want to email me I’ll give you some help.

You have to really WANT to give up!
I used to try because others kept telling me to and my sister even showed me pictures of diseased lungs but it didn’t stop me! Like you I tried various methods but I didn’t really try hard enough!
Even though I’m a care-worker I don’t see much point now at nearly 60 I don’t smoke a great deal and expect I’ll smoke even less when the ban comes in but if I was younger I’d use Money as an incentive!
Most of my friends have and it worked for them. You have to be strong though and put the money you’d spend every day in a jar or tin. If you don’t you won’t notice the benefits. After so long you will have money to buy something special so set a target!
Good luck, I’m sure you CAN DO IT!

it;s a nightmare isn’t it?! I tried loads of things… Hypnotism worked pretty well – I think it was a combination of the fact that I committed to paying someone money to help me stop and the actual hypnotism but it was the first time in 10 years when I got through a day without a cigarette and it was an amazing feeling the realise I could actually do that. Sadly I tested the hypnotism too much by having a fag a month later but I finally did give up from a change in attitude – I was so sick of myself for not wanting to be a smoker anymore that the next time I got hammered and smoked too much in a night feeling dog rough the next day, I didn’t have that gross hung over ciggy first thing, then I didn’t have the lunchtime one, then I didn’t have one when I got in from work etc then I went to bed, then the next morning again, I didn’t have that ciggy etc etc. It’s just taking it one step at a time and appreciating how long it’s been since you smoked is a good motivator for why you don’t want to break the success. Good luck.

Its all about motivation. Find the motivation that works for you. Write a list of 10 reasons why you want to quit. Not why you should quit or why other people say you should, but personal reasons and read it every time you want a cigarette

Cold turkey

its been 36 days now at first i was on the nicotine gum but i have been8 days without them now i still fancy a fag after a meal or a drink but its nowhere near as bad and doesn’t last as long all i can say is if i can give up after 26 years anyone can just keep at it best of luck
