How can I stop/cut down on smoking?

It’s starting to become a big problem, even though I have been able to cut down a little (3 cigs a day) it’s become a terrible problem with financial issues and all that :/

I wanted to stop smoking this year as a new year resolution and I think I really need help, could anyone suggest some advices on how to quit?
Please don’t advice niquitin patches or gums, they just don’t work.

What is the most effective way you've used to stop smoking?

I’ve been smoking for over 25 years. I smoke maybe 4 or 5 cigs a day, and I’ve stopped for 3-4 months at a time. But when the nicotine fit hits me, I can’t deal and start smoking again. What can I do?

Stop Smoking HELP!!!!!?

Ok I am 24 years old I started smoking weed at 10 and cigs at 12 about 2 packs a day. My father and his family has been smoking cigs around me since I came into this world so no one really ever caught on till I was about 20 when I started smoking in front of them. I have my marijuana license for anxiety (I was in a very abusive relationship for 4 years and was raped last year and I have Bi-Polarizm other medications have not been able to help me function as well as marijuana has). I have no plans in stopping that so please no lectures. However I want to be done with smoking cigs for good. I stopped about 2 years ago for 6 months when I got a horrible lung infection without any cravings or anything. I started again actually be shear accident. A friend of mine (who I actually got started smoking) came to visit me from my hometown we were in the car on our way to a bar and just handed me a cig and not thinking I smoked it. It was completely by accident we just were having a good time and got back into old habits. So i smoked another one and another and well you get the picture. I know it was stupid but really I thought that it didn’t matter at first. I have gone days and a few times weeks without smoking (no money does that to you) no cravings no agitation. I just don’t think and buy a pack when I had money go without when I don’t. Now I just got back from the doctor and he told me my lungs are of a 80 year old and my heart has been affected by smoking (I had no clue that smoking causes heart problems I thought it just screwed with your lungs). I have asthma and with family history of cancer, heart problems, and emphysema (i hope i spelled that correct) on both sides I want to be done with them for good. I really do enjoy smoking. My favorite thing to do is kick it with my friends in my garage smoking and talking and just relaxing. It is just a very mellow thing for us to do. I know this sounds stupid but I am not sure what to do if I don’t smoke. I actually get lost if I drive without cigs (I measure everything by how many cigs it takes to get to places). I am not like most smokers I can go to the movies without having to step outside for one, when I am around non smokers I usually go without (unless I am around to many people then it is my security "blanket"). I don’t want to takes any patches or drugs cause all they do is help with the cravings. I don’t get cravings, it is just the action of smoking I need to quit. Does anyone have any ideas on what i can "replace" smoking with. I am on day 2 of no smoking and really am doing good but I was good before and without thinking I bought a pack. I don’t need lectures or people saying just don’t buy them because everyone in my house smokes and I feel left out now. I truly don’t want to smoke anymore so please help if you can. Thank you

What is the best way to get my girlfriend to quit smoking?

My girlfriend has been smoking for a few years before I came into her life and now since we are at 6 months I told her that I want her to start quitting because I hate smoking.

She has cut down to almost 3 a week when shes around me, but when she is with her friends (current smokers) or is drinking then she chain smokes non-stop.

It’s obvious that her trying to quit isn’t really cutting it and I want to find a way for her to be able to quit throughout the whole day everyday.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Keep in mind any attempt of me to take action by force results in her getting quite pissed at me, which stresses her more and makes her smoke more, so I’m trying to find an easier way for both of us

Thank you
*EDIT*

Umm we do get drunk more often then usual and the 3 cigs a week is ONLY around me, but she smokes at least half a pack if she’s with her friends.

It’s not a case that she’s has dangerous habits now, but I want to prevent them later if this goes any further. Lord knows if I even thought of asking her to be my wife or somethin’, then smoking would be something of the past

How should I stop smoking, read details?

I’m 16 and I have been smoking for about 2 years now, I’m planning to stop because I’m going to a private school. I don’t want to put my parents money to waste, and I don’t want to ever break there heart if they find out about my bad habit. I’m very much addicted, I need about 3 cigerattes a day. I’m asking how I should stop smoking because it’s not like I’m going to buy nicotine patches or nicotine gum. Should I just slowly do less and less until I’m finally off of it. If your advice is to me is to just completely stop, its not that easy, even for someone who’s only done it for 2 years. If I don’t do it for a couple days my mind goes crazy. Does anyone have some real and sensible advice. Also I usually get my cigs from fishing.

Is there anyone there who would suggest not to quit smoking?

Today is my second day without cigs and i really wanted to quit, but i dont really want to quit anymore. Im bored when i dont smoke and im feel like a crazy asshole. Someone give me a good reason to smoke.

What is COPD and what are the stages of it?

I’m trying to find out as much information as possible about COPD b/c my father has it. He’s been living with emphazema for a while. He just quit smoking for the most, he’s only smoked 2 cigs in 2 days, so i’m proud of him. But what are the final stages and how long does a person usually live after they’ve hit the final stage?
