QUITTING STORIES...
Why I Stopped
Smoking...
I've been around smokers all my life. I have smoked for
Half of my life. Usually from morning till night there was a cigarette smoking
in my mouth. The main reason I finally got my act together and stopped smoking
was because it was beginning to become difficult for me to breath. I found that
under even minimal physical activity, I was unusually tired and out of breath.
I could feel my lung capacity diminishing over time. It's not easy quitting, but
it must be done. Smoking WILL kill you! It's just a matter of time. Will it kill
you young? Or will it kill you old? That is the only uncertenty. So your probably
beginning to wonder how I quit. Well, have no fear, I'm going to tell you all
about it... What tricks, tips, or pills did I use? NONE! I did have to muster
up some good 'ole will power though. Didn't cost me next months rent like most
these other bologna programs out there on the internet. I used nothing to aid
me. I quit cold turket... I said to myself. Self - your definetly going to die
from these cigarettes. Do I want to live or die? That was it - I stopped immediatly...
Some things I changed:
1 - Stopped Drinking Coffee
- Switched to Tea
2 - Asked Smoking Wife to Smoke Outside.

How do
I get through the depression and bad moods? I quit 6 days ago and I am using the
patch. Two days ago I got St.Johns Wart, but I hate when I feel like I could just
snap. I do the deep breaths but sometimes I cant just go for a walk. Is there
medication or do you have any other suggestions? Thanks for the help. I need it!!!
Hello,
Thanks for your website!
Could you explain this
to me further.
Did you know that some foods contain L-tyrosine, an enzyme that
relaxes neurotransmitters in the brain?
I need to stop smoking really, really
bad. I have a thyroid problem and need to know how L-tyrosine plays in all this.
Any help appreciated.
Im quitting marijuana for many reasons but Im tired
of reading lies such as pot smoke is twice as deadly than ciggarettes its funny
how often I hear that yet go into any hospital in American and show me one case
where someone is dying from Lung Cancer induced by pot smoke with 11 million people
smoking it regulary if it was as bad as cigs wouldnt there be at least one person
dying from it?
I was reading the information on this website about effects
of marijuana because my friend is pregnant and wants to know what the effects
might be. I do smoke pot and I wanted to let you know that when you described
the meaning of “burnout”, it seemed incorrect for this day in age. Me
and every other pot head in the world would know that “burnout” means
that you are coming down from your high and feel like going to sleep or need to
smoke more (that makes you fall asleep faster). You don’t have to be smoking
pot for an extended period of time to be a burnout, you can smoke weed for your
very first time and then when the high is over, you are “burnt out”.
Thought I would share my opinion! Thanks!
