@jwolf if I only smoke 5 per day why am I pretty much done? because I actually do not smoke more than that, so that's great news for me I guess...

You have provided a really workable plan to quit smoking. By following your kind advice one can get benefit for his precious health by quiting this dangerous thing.

Your will power and resolution to quit smoking play an important part to help you get out of this quagmire. For this one should have strong commitment to do this to provide healthy air to lungs and purify his blood from toxic elements like nicotine.

First couple of months are really important as one thinks that now he has control to quit smoking at any time, one starts again. One should keep an eye on this tempting moments. Stay healthy.

i have seen people destroy their lives and do harm to themselves, and they realize they are addicted when it's too late. And most of the time they are ashamed of accepting the fact they need help. Smoking i a curse and i hv seen very close relatives of mine hurting themselves through it, and yeah these steps can be useful but @jwolf Accepting that you have the problem is the first step and the most hard one. I WISH ALL THE STEEMERS AND HUMANS OUT THERE HEALTH

It is important to remember that tobacco use is a chronic relapsing condition- not a bad habit.  People start using tobacco for a variety of reasons.  I do not know what tobacco cessation education is like within healthcare provider curriculum in the UK, but in Canada it is sorely lacking.  Healthy public policy is key to denormalize tobacco and create safe spaces for people who want to quit, smokers themselves, and for people who don't use tobacco.  Really enjoyed!

Never ever smoked but great post for those who are not able to quit it !!

Really damn good post man .it has to be stopped everyone should try their best to quit smoking .never give up in your early stage it quiting .

Everybody knows that smoking is injurious to health,even than smokes.Nice things given.One has to leave slowly.Thanks.

My official Quit Day is tomorrow.  I'm prepared with a vape in hand. And I told it to the world with a post on this platform and a few others. 
I figure if I tell everyone then I will be less likely to chicken out.

nice tips for quit smoking! great topic! I support this! thank you @jwolf

It is definitely hard. Just have to stay strong .

Wow this post found its way to me at the right time. I've been smoking for like 11 years and just last week I decided to start working on quitting.

I bought an e-cig thing which works okay. So far I've cut down from a pack a day to around 5-6. It's a start - I don't like the idea of going cold turkey so I'm taking it slow.

The number one way to quit smoking is to want it, in my opinion. If you're quitting just for the hell of it, it's not going to work. Once you really want to work on getting some health back, and start feeling some of the long term effects, that's when you really start to *want* clean lungs lol. That drive has helped me cut down more than any other method. You have to *want* it.

I think vaping also helps,those who are super addictive to smoking can give a try,where you can reduced the nicotine level step by step.
I had came across two devices that's 12g of nicotine with double battery for heavy smokers
Second one is 6g of nicotine with single battery.
This device seems helpful in keeping the number of times one smoke.
Quite helpful in reducing the habit of smoke.

Most people try to quit smoking but are just too addicted to stop. They know its killing them but dunno how to go about it.
I have a friend who cant go a day without atleast 3 sticks of cigar . 
Thanks for sharing this information hope it will help all the smokers out there who are trying to quit or cut down.

I personally used a self help method.  I think that ultimately you have to do it yourself though assists are said to be quite helpful for some.
My method was using a book that helped me with my thought processes about myself and the temptation to smoke.
I also had to separated myself from many of my friends and routines that had become intertwined with my smoking routine.
I had to replace my smoking routine with a new routine which involved a mantra focused upon breathing fresh air and reading.
this may sound weird but after about 2 months I was pretty well on my way to freedom and 6 months later it was pretty much a done deal.
The first three to four weeks were the toughest.  Then the next month was crucial that I didn't slip up.

thank you for your knowledge and advice, I will try this science because I am a heavy smoker

Really good point about switching brands. You have to ween yourself off by first just kicking your favorites to the curb. The tipping point for me was switching from menthol cigarettes to just regular ones!

Smoking kills and majority of the smokers out there are ignorant of this.
i once over heard a man say  *"my father smoked for over 20 years and he didn't die as a result of it so he also wouldn't die".*

I just shook my head and continued walking.

i want to give up but i cant do  this... thanks for sharing your tips about smoking .... best of luck...

Thanks for tips

I feel electronic cigarettes too can be of great help since smoking wouldn't really have been tagged be if it weren't for the danger the smoke poses to the smoker and those around who get to be secondary smokers. So while you are trying to quit, you may want to try an electronic cigarette. By the way, this is another nice post @jwolf.

Personally i hate smoking, but i want to help someone if they trying to quit smoking. it's really a bad habit and it can make a bad result for family member specially kids....
