早知今日 ， 何必当初 ？ if he know today he's in difficulty to quit , he wouldn't start right ? who would want to suffer the torture ?

just bear the mindset to quit , one of those days you'll not touch it anymore .
there's a chinese saying " 天下无难事 ， 只怕有心人 。"

who say smoke liao cannot quit ?
i also got smoke before . now also quit liao .
as if he knows what will happen in the future .

u must have the determination to quit lah .
dun always be tempted when u see others smoke .

my friend teach mi before ,
rub the tobacco on ur hand , so that ur hand got the smell
den when u are tempted jus go smell ur hand .
sounds abit dumb , but i think its better to smell den smoke .

you tell urself the wonderful thing u will get after u quit smoking, and not jsur that, please take paper and pen to write it down and keep inside your wallet or something. remind urself that everyday.

this is the same scenario when an oversize person wanting to slim down,however nothing changes.

i don't understand smoking at all...

why would you want to roll up dollar notes and burn them, and put bad materials in your body?

funny... in NTU, they are having a quit smoking campaign...

there are booklets (it's like a workbook for you to use to help yourself quit smoking) and leaftlets that explains a lot of things bout smoking..

if you have friends there, can get him/her to get a copy for you... =)

Think I'll type out a page from the booklet that I have

Quit methods to choose from
1) At Once
Most smokers successfully quit smoking by going 'Cold Turkey'. This means you pick a date and stop smoking completely on that day. This is the best method, so give it a try.

2) Gradually
You can reduce the number of cigarettes each day util you don't smoke at all. Use a record sheet to monitor the cigarettes you smoke

3) Delaying
Delay lighting up each time you feel like smoking, or postpone having your first cigarette for the the day. After a while you'll be able to go through the whole day without smoking

determination.

Well it's hard at first but do you have the HEART & Determination to do it (juz like other sg mem said)
1 way u could try... instead of cigarette replaced it with gums (chewing gums will do) ...
Or get ur wife to nag at you once u smoke ....
My boyfriend tried it & now he's cured! :biggrin4:

burgerboi

heh
ex smoker here
not as heavy as u are
but this is my method
whether work or not really depends on urself alrdy

whenever i smoke, i look at the package of the cigarette
with all the tumors and cancers and etc...
but i imagine it not to be on myself, but on the ones i loved
that will be wad i am doing to them if i smoke

hence i will divert away and drink something like 100 plus or milk or any other drinks
if my frens smoke
i will tell them i am trying to smoke, and walk away for a bit
returning after they finish their stick

一生的友情。。。
一世的等待。。。

a friendship for life 。。。
a boundless awaitment 。。。
a promise harnessed eternally 。。。

I'm a smoker for 10 over years. Can't remember the 1st stick when. But I used to smoke min 2 big pack a day. Think I'm the graduall type of people. Now 2 day 1 pack. But sometimes trying to delay my timing of urge as well. Anyway for all those who don't smoke at all, it's not good for someone who's been smoking for so long to just quit immediately. I went through the "cold turkey". For a couple of weeks last time, I went w/o any sticks. It's really very bad period. It's due to the kind of heavy smoking I was before and I found myself very tired most of the time. I can't concentarte and tends to be very lethargic. Even just walking from bus stop to home is like walking a mile to me. And the running nose and those sickness really getting the nerves out of me. After that 2 weeks, I picked up my sticks again and to my surpise, all those things stops. As for my advice which I don't know whether I should, don't stop smoking. But you may want to cut down gradually like me. When people ask you to go smoke, you can chose not to go with them if you don't have the urge. I do that myself.

my father has been smoking since forever, then later when he got married to my mom, later when they have kids, my father decided to quit,due to us + my mother complainin like mad, and the fact he's diabetic, plus we all have g6pd deficiency.

it was very difficult at first, i remember my dad hiding in the toilet to smoke,
or go out of the house to smoke, slowly cut down,
after a while he stopped completely,

my bf told me his bro, also a heavy smoker, quited also because the wife was pregnant with the 1st child, now the 2nd child already born abt a year plus, but he never touched cigs at all.


i never expect my bf to quit smokin, but he keep sayin he will quit, so i told him, say quit den MUST quit, he is now cutting down, from 1-2 packs a day to 1 pack for 3-4 days.


its a matter of choice, if the motivation comes from your love ones, it'll be easier, ur doin it for you, and everyone beside you.
i mean i myself is very sick of being a 2nd hand smoker and think i'll probably die sooner or later la[my friends ALL smokin]

if really cannot curb the urge, you can try nicotine tablets from pharmacy.


Smokin is a habit. can overcome wan, but need time, and determination.

SG FTW!
