Best way to stop smoking?

Limit the triggers ( friends that smoke, smoke breaks, movies with smoking etc) for start...

Hey frostyyy,

same thing as with too much eating. Just stop. If you really want it, then
it shouldn't be an issue to stop. The first days are the hardest. After that,
it's getting easier and easier. You'll have to do it by yourself. No one is able
to help you out with that.

Best regards,
Flogisch

These pieces of information are not dynamic. They are at the current state of the post.

There are a few different ways you could go about doing this, but I'm only going to recommend the ways that I use.

The first is to ween yourself off of it. If you smoke several times a day, limit yourself to once a day for about a week. After that, start alternating and going every other day. Keep increasing the space between smoking until you only do it on Fridays/Weekends, and you'll be able to stop altogether pretty easily.

The way I typically favor is just stop entirely. It's incredibly difficult but once you get past that third/fourth day it gets way easier. Smoking will eventually become an afterthought and it won't be that difficult.

Lastly, as mikewill said, you really need to limit your triggers. If you do not have the strength to resist the peer pressure of people around you smoking, you're going to have to limit your time around those particular people.

Do NOT replace one habit with another. Don't pick up cigarrettes (if you haven't already), vaping (again, if you haven't already), and so on.

Remember that it's just a plant and it cannot control you. Whether or not you use is ultimately up to you, and there is not a doubt in my mind just about everyone is strong enough mentally to prevent themselves from smoking.

If none of this is working for you and you feel as though you have a serious issue/addiction that needs to be addressed, I would advise you to seek professional help. Addiction is not a subject to be taken lightly and your mental health is unbelievably important.

Sending good vibes your way, best of luck man

Buy yourself a Vape, which isnt that bad as cigarettes!
From vape your inhale jus vapor, which contains:
VG (vegatable glycerine), which makes clouds bigger, if your intrested
PG (Propylene Glycol), which makes flavour taste better.
Nicotine -knowing that in cigarettes are a lot of nicotine, I suggest you starting at 18mg nicotine and than shortly decreasing it!
PG and VG are used in normal products, which we eat every day so I dont see anything bad switching to vape!
In america 60-70% vape has helped to quit smoking, those who have tried it!

if i could leave a one word answer i would.

Vape.

that's how i quit the nasty smelling ciggs. Cant stand them now. took a year to finally get to not have a cigg for a month or so and then i tried one and almost got sick. DONE.

that's ma' story.

best way to stop smoking is once you dont have lungs to feed . it will stop. trust me

just keep smoking until you can't smoke anymore lol worked for me lol

Try nicotine patches/gum or if you really could try and call a help line they might offer good solutions than a forum.
