Motivation to stop smoking for good

[ramasus]

People,

Please give me motivation to quit smoking, I am going to stop on Sunday and have tried many times but failed.

Help

Good motivation, plus your food will taste much better.

Here is how to go about it. Get some nicotine chewing gum (I used 4mg Nicotinell fruit) and disappear into the countryside, taking neither fags nor matches. Spend the whole day doing nothing except not smoking and enjoying the peace and quiet. As of Monday morning, you have achieved one whole day, and that is a huge sense of achievement. Get that first day under your belt, and the rest are so much easier.

Go dogging in local parks or turn gay. This should soon take the attention away from your habits

Think of all the risks of cancers and diseases etc.
Giving up is hard - not giving up is even harder.

buy alan carrs the easy way to give up smoking. mr moo successfully gave up after reading this, and he did not believe that he could. its been approx 16 months since his last.

Here's a totally different way of looking at it:-

Who is in charge ? You or the fags ? If you don't give up, then the fags are in charge and you will be a slave to nicotine. Do you really want the fags to be in control of you ?

The so called *pleasure* one gets from smoking a fag is simply putting your body back into its *normal*state - ie without a craving, so inhaling toxic substances in order to feel normal is just sheer bonkers - and they are seriously toxic !

Wouldn't it be lovely not to have to think all the time about when can I next have a fag or to have the nicotine rule your life, because that is what it's doing right now.

On Sunday you will take control back !!!
