1. Interact with and join a group of smokers who want to quit also
Go down to your local community centre, and there is sure to be a ‘quit smoking’ group where you can discuss your troubles and experiences. Here, you will see people who have the same problem in quitting as you do, if not worse. Here, you should speak your mind with your peers and listen to their methods of how they are quitting. If you see someone there with a good method, why not ask them whether you can join them in quitting as it is giving you great motivation to perverse with your problem. Asking questions will further your chances of being successful in giving up smoking.
2. Patches or even chewing gum!
You are able to purchase patches from your pharmacy, or you can get prescribed from your doctor. This will only work effectively if you reduce the amount you smoke cigarettes otherwise you’re using patches as well as cigarettes which is more nicotine. Thus, try to cut down to start with, to just patches, where you will see huge benefits. Once you are comfortable with patches, try to move onto chewing hard candy or chewing gum as you are still effectively stopping your craving.
3. Keep your body moving and dispose of everything to do with Smoking!
In order to continue on what looks like a long quest to quitting smoking, you should always keep yourself both physically and mentally active. If you don’t and sit on your sofa all day thinking about cigarettes, you will get up just to get a cigarette and sit back down and carry on this method until you’re on the verge of death. Instead, be active, physically and mentally whether it be studying, working or playing sports. It is very good for cleansing your brain from the bad habit of smoking. Thus, when you are actively doing something you will not even remember what a cigarette was.
Additionally, many of the previous smokers I know have been following the saying ‘out of sight, out of mind.’ This means you should dispose of all your cigarette packs and ashtrays because you could get a craving at any time and if it’s not there and you know it’s not there, you won’t even bother to think about it!
4. Beat your physical side with Laser Therapy Treatment
Laser Therapy Treatment is a expensive treatment, especially in these hard economic times, but it will be worthwhile since you are probably saving in the long term because of the amount of money you spend on cigarettes anyway! Though expensive, this is probably the fastest way of getting rid of your craving. My personal friend took this treatment and it has saved him $5000 in the last 2 years and the treatment only cost him $800. Great investment in the long term and instant results are shown!
5. Keep going… keep motivated
Staying motivated is key. To stay motivated, watch these programs on both TV and Youtube, showing the effects of smoking. In addition, think that it has made you uglier and has now set a date for your death. To change this, you MUST stop, if you want to see your kids grow up, you MUST keep going, if you want to keep living, you MUST quit smoking!
