I've thought about trying hypnosis. I'm hearing a lot of good stories about it. Winxtp.com has a review about a self hypnosis program. I like it because it has a 60 day money back guarantee and the creator actually seems to be credible for a change. Does anyone have experience with stuff like this?

I had tried in the past with the "less cigarettes a day" trick, but in my personal experience it's bullshit. One day at work I was talking with a colleague of mine about my desire to quit smoking... while having a cg in hand. He is a heavy smoker who had failed to stop in the past, so he looked in my eyes and told me: "You know that if you smoke that one you will never stop?" Don't know why, but it worked. I trashed that cig and the packet right after, and since then I never touched anything. The first two weeks had been hell, but I kept remembering myself that if I ever surrendered for a little I would have never quit. I guess the real difficulty comes not only because of the habit, but because of some "habit locations", like the spot when you smoke right after having the car parked and so on. The trick is to recognise these places so that you can avoid them/strenghten your resolve before going there. At the current moment I don't feel the need anymore, so I think it worked. My previous tentatives did last only for about a week and at the current moment I don't feel the need anymore despite living in the same environment, so I think it worked. Good luck to everyone, guys! | ||

But if I decide one day that I'm going to try and not smoke that day, I end up wanting one more. It's really killing me | ||

I'm also running like a madman, I think to compensate for the nicotine by releasing happy exercise hormones, but I'm no doctor. Smoked pack a day for 5-6 years before this. I am a little afraid of 'losing' cigarettes as a social tool. It had become kind of my go-to move to chat people up while going out, any tips on that? And how long does the coughing from quitting continue for? | ||

Using workouts and chewing gum to counter the craving, and it works pretty well so far. I don't get much sleep though, as I'm hyperactive as fuck | ||

That said I've been itching to get high, but I don't want to smoke. Anyone with a solution that isn't 200 euros? (as in a vaporizer) | ||

What finally did it for me: Going full retard health obsessive mode! -First made a pact with a friend to have a sixpack ready by next summer (9 months to work with) -Cardio 30min a day (no excuse, ever) -Hit the gym every other day (no excuse, ever) -Eat right - 6 times a day minimum, double body weight in protein, mass fibre/vitamins/etc. From being almost underweight (185cm, 64,5kg, 17%bf) I've gained 5kg's in weight and lowered my bf by 4-5%. Most important of all though, I have still not smoked. Last was the 27 september, so I have passed my 3 month mark and hardly ever think about it anymore. Being complete health nazi was the motivation i needed. Just one cigaret, and all the fucking jogging and eating nothing but boring shit would be wasted. | ||

(as in a vaporizer) Now, I don't think smoking bud is nearly as bad as cigarettes, but if you don't want the cough, a vaporizer is a great investment. I got a V-Tower extreme which has the bag like a volcano and a hose and it was 180 american ~ 140 eur. It might be a big initial investment but if you want to get high with no cough it's the way to go. | ||

I don't want to let myself smoke even that single joint with tobacco mixed in, at least not for the next couple of weeks. Any other solutions that won't cost me that kind of money or is it vaporizer only? (Today was hell for me. I woke up after the most extreme smoking dream, which felt real to a point where I could swear I smoked. Shitty mood for the rest of the day. Also the first day back in my normal routine after the holidays which hurt even more.) | ||
