does any1 know how i can quit smoking??

Are you serious?? Do you mean quit smoking cigarettes? Because if you mean anything else then I am not waisting my time. I don't do drugs nor do I tolerate those who do. However, I have been close to people that have smoked cigarettes for years and have tried to quit. I will tell you from their experience that it is not easy. As with any addiction you have to teach the brian all over again to say no and understand why it's bad for you. That is a difficult task. But I suggest you start by determining why you want to quit and set some short term goeals like perhaps, smoking 8 cigaretts per day instead of 10 for example and see how yo cope with that feeling. Occupy your mind with things that are fun for you so that you have less time to ponder about smoking. The less you learn to need it the better it will go. It's a long process but you can get there if you are determined. I personally do not recommend the patches because the best way to get rid of nicotine addiction is to not ingest it at all. So, even though its in less quantities you are still getting it with those patches. Best to break free completely. I hope this helps if only a wee bit. Good luck

some people say that it helps to hold a pen or something instead of a ciggarette coz fills in the physical gap or something. like when u associate having a fag while youre reading, hold a pen instead.
and every time u want one tell yourself youre better than that. "take pride in being able to say no" and keep remembering that you are better than ciggerettes. you can do it!
Good Luck! x

i think i'm going to quit smoking when I'm 27... I don't know why I think that, but the advice given so far sounds pretty good.

you might as well start now

u might die before ur 27.
not that i wanna scare ya

Dont just suddenly quit.

Try smoking less and less amount of cigarettes each day u smoke.

I agree with the other people that have said start having less ciggis and maybe try the nicotine patches - I personally don't smoke but i've certainly got some friends who are bad addicts and if they don't stop soon the ciggis will. (Not wishing that upon my friends or yourself). Good luck Becki7

I smoked for 15 years and then quit cold turkey. Never smoked again, that was 13 years ago. I still crave a smoke from time to time, but I refuse to go back to it.
I had to asscociate more pain with smoking than the pleasure I got from smnoking.
Like this:
Smoking=wrinkles and premature aging
Smoking=gross smelling me!
Smoking=my fathers enlarged heart
Smoking=diminished lung capacity (imagine not being able to take a full deep breath of air)
Smoking=yellow ugly teeth
And so on...

start another drug instead is my advise...mayb cocaine,extasy,speed etc
