I'm finally gonna quit smoking! I've been sayin I will for the longest, but my daughter has "guilted" me into quitting tomorrow! She said Friday that "smoking is bad for your bones" and that I needed to quit. I told her I will, but it's very hard. So yesterday, as I was smoking a cigarette outside, she came next to me and said "cough cough, it hurts my throat" so of course I felt bad. I know I NEED to quit, but dayum, is it tough! Any former smokers who can give me any tips? I am quitting cold turkey, and have been chewing cinnamon gum like mad, but it's not helping! I had to bum 2 smokes at work today cuz I couldn't take it anymore! Any tips or suggestions would be great!!

I wish I had tips for you but I've never had to quit something like that, just try to stay focused and keep your goals in mind (your health, your daughter). I wish my bf would quit

I wish you luck!

I never smoked, but my dad who started smoking at age 12 and quit COLD turkey at age 34 I believe (which was 5 years ago), he quit because my little brother got really sick and my dad was scared for him cause he is always sick. I think he was 8 years old at the time and my dad prayed to God that if my brother turned out ok, that he would quit smoking. He hasn't since and I think it's pretty cool he did it just like that.

in australia there is a hotline you can call for tips and stuff. I'm guessing there must be a website with lots of ideas to help you stop smoking.

Best of luck chicken!

Good luck!! I quit several months ago. I stopped cold turkey and it was hell for the 1st 2 weeks, but if you can make it through that, it's ok. I still want one but find other things to do..............like posting here. You can do it!!!!!!!!!

I smoked for years and quit a little while back. I still crave it but I am hangin in there. It's a terrible habit--wish I had never picked up the first one. Check my posts, I wrote about it in here--once even sereaming that I wanted a cig. Think of the make-up you could buy if you didn't spend that money on cigs. Too expensive girl!!! Can't buy make-up, gas, and smoke too????
