12 Reasons to Really Quit Smoking

To the "10 Reasons" guy

if you think that smoking won't kill you fast, have you thought about all the diseases and illnesses that smoking causes? My grandmother had a stroke in February, she was a smoker, she had been for as long as I can remember and I'm only 16. My grandfather found her face down in the snow; she had been there for almost three hours. Now she is in a nursing home having to learn how to walk again and with no use of her right arm, how would you feel in that situation? I think you better choose your cold words wisely when critisizing what people write to try and help those in need.

Re "The 10 reasons arent very convincing"

To Dano of CA

Aside from the fact that you certainly have the right to your opinion, let me say that your logic ( or actually, lack of) is just plain stupid. You employ all of the same mindless excuses as any other kind of addict. Also, sis you forget about the part about all of that second hand smoke harming other innocent bystanders, or don't you really care about others? Oh, and regarding your other dumb comoment that 20 less years on earth is a small proce to pay for a more pleasurable life for you, how about the effects of your habit on all of the people who will have to take care of you for all of the years you suffer through COPD, and/or lung cancer?

The 10 reasons aren't very convincing to me

I could come up with 10 better reasons to quit than those listed in this article. There are so many other things that can kill you ( and faster ) than cigarettes. Cars are more dangerous than cigarettes and have ruined more lives than puffers. One should quit for their own reasons but this line in reason 10 in particular I completely disagree with...

"an early death is a small price to pay for a lifetime of pleasure"

I would venture to say it is exactly the opposite. I believe that 10 years is a small price to pay for a more pleasurable life.

dont smoke

I have been a regular smoker for almost 15 years and i quit recently , i am quite proud of my accomplishment, my main motivating factor had been the recent increase in prices with taxes going up, and it was then i decided not to end up feeding expensive poison to kill myself, i enjoy food better; i have begun to jog (although not much lungs need to recover) overall feels good ..pls quit this habit for your OWNSAKE !!

SERIOUSLY. You HAVE to read this

Or if you can't read it all, just read the numbered sentences. But you should read this...it's worse than we thought.

Smoking Hypnosis

I started smoking when I was 16, I thought it looked cool like so many other kids. I also thought I could stop whenever I wanted. Similar story for everyone no doubt. After 10 years of heavy smoking (20 to 30 home rolled cigarettes with no filter) I used to wake up with that horrible cough that wouldn't settle until I had my first cigarrette, and how great that first one of the day was.

I tried giving up but the cravings always got to me. I would go for a week but would be very edgey, quite angry and stressed until some trigger would make me smoke again. I tried patches and gum (yuk!), cold turkey and then came across hypnosis. This has truly changed my life.

I did a program which I downloaded off the internet http://www.stopsmoking7day.com/ and within a week I had quit, but the most amazing thing was I had no cravings what so ever. It is about retraining your subconsious mind (I think!)

And the best thing about giving up is how I have managed to change other areas of my life, my diet is better, I drink less and I enjoy going for a run! I no longer have my son saying I smell bad and hopefully I will live to see some grandchildren.

To the person who is trying to give up or gone a short while, take a look at hypnosis it really helps out, I couldn't recommend it more.

tip to quit

i am a smoker myself,

but someone told me on thing that helps.

"avoid the trigers"

e.g dont go out with people that smoke if they might tempt you.

good luck.
