I am trying so hard to quit smoking for me and my kids.I do not like the way the patches gum make me feel

HELP! The Gum or the Nicotine Patches ?

I’m going to start taking Chantix to help me quit smoking… What were some side effects YOU noticed while taking it, and was it worth it, rather than other quit-smoking venues such as gum or the patch?

She smokes like every 2-3 hours. And yeah we are both 16 This is freakin ridiculous…. I mean she chews a gum and stuff like that but the smell is still awful >_< Plus I really do care about her….
Please? Help? Somebody?

I want to buy some stuff that’ll help my dad stop smoking does anyone know if the patches or gum really work or not
I already did that

I’m only 18 turning 19 but I have been smoking since I was 12. How can I quit smoking with out getting the gum and buying stuff because then I would just buy smokes. I really don’t want to here " JUST STOP" its not easy i wrote out a check to get smokes and bounced a check. Can someone give me advise. I did stop smoking for a while when I got babtised (GO MORMONS) but I need help now. Thanks

Here is the thing my husband is very stuborn. I have tried to tell him strait forward he needs to quit. That was a bad idea. I am getting very concerned about his health not to mention I hate the smoke around me and our kids. Some times he doesn’t even seem to care about how I feel on the situation. I have told him to try the patch or gum and he wont even consider it. What should I do? Please help!

I have smoked for about 6 years and think they cause my headaches. is there something i can do to try and stop smoking? without electric cigarettes, gum, ect.

My husband and I have set February 3rd as our quit date. I know how hard it is, I’ve tried to quit several times before. We’re going to be trying to help with the cravings with the patches and lots of gum or suckers. Does anyone have any other suggestions that could help. Thanks!
Thanks for all your answers…we are foing great. It’s been 3 1/2 days and it hasn’t been so hard. We’ve had cravings but they don’t last very long. My nicotene patch fell off yesterday and I left it off for about 8 hours before I showered and put on a new one and things have been fine. I would highly recommend the Nicoderm CQ. We have had very few withdraw symptoms and we’re breaking the habits of "thoose times when you want a cigarette" pretty easily. It’s nice, we still find ourselves going into our pocket or purse to get a cigarette whenever we forget, but then it’s like wait I quit smoking. I think it’s going to work this time. Thank you for all the answers and congratulations to those who have stopped smoking in the past and to all you trying to quit or wanting to YOU CAN. I have never went this long without a cigarette and I never believed I could do it. I did though and you can too.

Somebody told me that if you chew strong tasting gum when you want a cigarette instead of smoking that it will help you quit but slowly quit is that true?

I have been smoking since I was like 16. I know. Bad. I quit for like a year & I was doing it like twice a day back then so it wasn’t like I was addicted. I was doing it to be "cool" or whatever. Now I’m trying really hard to stop. My husband & I have been trying to start a family for a year & I think it is affecting that. When I just flat out stop, I’m NOT a nice person & I have horrible mood swings. What is the best/easiest way to stop? Does that gum really work?

I’ve read Easy Way by Allen Carr, but I couldn’t stick with it. Never tried any gum or patches, but I’m sure they wouldn’t help me quit nicotine. Any other suggestions or home remedies? I hear Chantix works but the side effects are absurd. Any Chantix experiences would be nice and any suggestions of how they were successful quitting would be nice too.

I don’t want to hear about patches, gum or other substitutes…

If you have smoked (cigarettes!) and is now completely free of it, tell me how you managed to stop mentally. How you convinced yourself that you didn’t need cigarettes.

If you want, you can also tell me for how long you smoked, and how long you’ve managed to stay without since then.
Im asking for PERSONAL success and experiences!

He’s been trying to quit for a while but I caught him smoking last night. He’s tried the gum and patches bu they didn’t really help.

i want to quit smoking cus ive been smoking for a year and now im having trouble breathing. i tried nic gum but it doesnt work and is too expensive. what can i use to help?

Hi, I want to stop smoking but I am having some problems. I have tried patches and gum and they have help me cut down but I can not stop, I have also done cold turkey but that was sooo bad. I thought I could try a hypnotist but I not sure about losing control for a while. I you have tried a hypnotist can you tell me what it is like please? If you did it to stop smoking did it work for you.

My mother has been smoking for many years and she has tied multiple times to quit. She just recently tried for 5 days without smoking but ended up doing it anyway. It seems the patches only work for like a day and the gum does not work. She doesn’t seem to respond to anything. I really hope someone has some kind of answer cause i’d like my mom to be around to see me get through college and to get married one day but im afraid that just may not happen if she keeps smoking. So anything will help! thanks.

does anyone know the name of the NEW prescription drug that just came out in 2006 to help people stop smoking?
first of all im asking this question for my mom second i’m a little offended by the drug addict comment… if she wanted to chew gum she would have bought nicorette by now im asking a specific question thanks

me and my bf are trying to stop smoking…has anyone tried the gum and it actually worked..i want to get something but everything is costly and i just wanted your opinion on what works best….. something beside just quitting "cold turkey"….thanks

I have been smoking since I was 9 yrs old. I like the taste of my menthol’s. I have try everything from the gum to the doctor butting me on the medication. I just can’t stop and i think its because I like the taste to much. What do you think?

I’m trying to find out if the electric cigarette is a good way to stop smoking? Is it harmful also? I know it has nicotine but so does the other alternatives, gum, inhalers, patches,and so on. I thought this would be the ticket but some of my friends are saying this is worse because your putting water into your lungs. Does anyone know if this is true or not?

I have plenty of veggies and fresh fruit and even nuts around to snack on. When I shop I avoid buying cookies and my favorite candies.
I buy jelly beans and other hard candy and gum lots of gum. Once in a while I even endulge in a Snickers candy bar. But nothing seems to help.
I eat a blanced diet but I’m still gaining weight. And keep looking for something sweet to eat.
Has anyone else had this problem if so how did you solve it.

I have been smoking for about 14 years. i will be thirty next week and desperately want to quit. I have used the patch and quit for over a year, however the patch gave me a horribly painful rash and severe nightmares, even when i didn’t where it at night. I was just wondering, for those who were successful quitting, what worked for you? was it cold turkey, pure motivation, patch , gum, inhaler. I would love some thoughts and advice to get me going on this. Thanks.

I was told use the 2mg gum and do not smoke at all and i get high or buzz from the gum. why?
