I wanted to quit smoking even though I had always been a light smoker. Smoking is an unhealthy habit irregardless of how often or what type of cigarette you indulge in. So I tried cold turkey and that approach did not work for me. I then asked the advise of a doctor and she wrote me a prescription for a drug called "Chantix" which has about a 46% success rate for helping people quit. I used that and for me it has worked. I am on 8 months now without a smoke.

This did not necessitate god, or my belief or trust in any higher powers, nor salvation, nor a lot of proselytizing. It in fact only required me setting my mind to quitting with the additional assistance of modern medicine.

No Im off it. You first get what is called a "starter kit". Try that and see how you react to it. There can be some side effects but I had no major problems. I am no longer on it and have not smoked since. It only takes about 2-3 days for all of the nicotine to vacate your system. A little longer if you are a heavy smoker. Once the nicotine clears, then it is merely a psychological addiction but to be sure, don't underestimate that. I had to stay away from smokers for a period of time to not smell it. But the Chantix helps and you simply feel satiated, almost as if you just had a cigarette. It does not work for everyone as the studies indicate (46% or so success rate) but seeing as nicotine addiction parallels that of opium, those are significant numbers. You might need to stay on the Chantix longer as everyone is different in that respect. Ask your GP if you have one.

I'm not alone. I have two cats and a dog, my sister, my mom and dad, my aunt.. and all my multiple personalities, and my higher self. Oh and of course the voices in my head.

My sister and both my husbands were/are heavy smokers. I have never smoked myself. I asked them what it is that they enjoy about smoking that they can't quit, and it seems that the drug relaxes you, and allows you to focus mentally a little better.

When my second husband stopped cold turkey he was mentally scattered and confused (space case) for about two weeks, but he got over that. It was really noticeable because he was always extremely focused and clear headed, suddenly it seemed he was getting Alzheimer's.

My sister is very a wiry and nervous type. She is trying to quit now because she has discovered some nodules on her lungs and a few other places. When she goes cold turkey she is twice as nervous, almost like she is on speed.

So cigarettes are a depressant that relax and allow you to slow down and focus. Like very mild pot.

The ability to focus is improved by consuming blue green algae and other very green vegetation, plankton, see weed, broccoli etc. If you are trying to quit, you might want to try some of that kind of food supplement.

cigs are a very strong drug. very addictive, nasty, and not good for you, and yes, i smoke a pack a day

Thank you {{{{{{{IAM}}}}}}...... sincerely..... for being an Earth Angel for me today. I needed the reminder

soon as i find another general prac doc i'm gonna check it out, mine just went to jail for income taxes and the good old VA chit care system wont even prescribe it even if you are willing to pay for it

Oh god....

Just out of curiosity, why isnt this posted in the religious section?

The last thing I want to read when I come to this poetry board is someone prosletyzing his religious dogma to me.

And FYI, it takes alot more than a belief in an unseen entity to take back control from your addictions. If you doubt that, go talk to anybody who's been an addict.

This WAS and "IS" MY CREATIVE WRITING!!!

HOW DO YOU or ANY MODERATORS FEEL? THINK? or BELIEVE YOU CAN SEPERATE my thoughts in WORDS as NEEDNG TO BE SOMEWHERE ELSE?????

This was as much a write about addiction as it was the THOUGHT of another having the Entidy of GOD with them????????

I want to know who was the MODERATOR who joined one PERSON'S VOICE and MOVED THIS FROM POEMS AND CREATIVE WRITINGS.????????????

POEMS can BE and HAVE BEEN about """NY"""SUBJECT MATTER!!!!!!!!!

Where's all MY AMEN'S and HOORA'S on THIS???

This makes me feel like if the word GOD iseven uttered, WE NEED TO POST IT ""ONLY"" IN HERE!!!
