Do you all know that there is a 1-800 number in EVERY state if you are ready to quit and need help? They are DOH program funded by the tobacco lawsuit settlements (yeah, I know...seems contrary, but that's our legal system!) These hotlines usually offer free NRT and counseling and they can often refer you to a local agency for assistance with your quit.
IF you are ready (cuz you won't be successful if you aren't ready) then give them a call... |

Started smoking in the Air Force...thought I'd die anyway, so pretty much did everything...But when I left Vietnam on April 29, 1972...I quit cold turkey.

I am using the electronic cigarette, it really works. I do not want a real cig. It is a nicotine inhaler, no smoke, no tar, no burning paper.

Started smoking around 17 and quit many times. At times I went as long as 2 years but seem to never fail I would pick another one back up an was right back at it.
It will be 7 years this coming January that I finally put them down for the last time cold turkey and have never thought about picking them back up. ![]() It is one of the hardest things to do and unless it is something one really wants to do it is not going to happen.... ![]() |

I've quit over and over again. The most effective time was on a $20 dollar bet. I quit for six months with zero motivation to smoke and as soon as he paid me, I started up again! I find that bribing myself with something more valuable is a great motivator. I have quit now for 2 months and love every minute of it!
