    Two packs a day for 25years, Have been quit for 27years now..........it helps to join a gym which helps to keep the weight off and gives you something else to do with your hands. I am 63 now and can still bench 250. You just gotta want to quit.

    53 years I smoked. Started when I was 13. Neighbour kid and I stole a carton of his mom's black cat plain and headed back to the bush. Can still remember that day. Boy was I sick. I was so sick my mother thought I was a goner and gave me her bed.
    Smoked players plain for years, then switched to Du Maurier , tried those menthol for a short time.
    Anyhow had one of the grandkids on my lap one day and she said I smelled. That was about a year and a half ago. Wish I had done it 30 40 years ago as I could have bought a ferrari with the money. They were .20 or 25 cents a pack when I started and swore I was gonna quit when they hit a buck. Anyhow when they got to around 7 bucks I started buying the Native smokes which were still around 3 something a pack, 30 bucks for a carton.
    Anyhow if you can quit smoking everything works, smells and tastes better and you'll add ten years to your life. That's what I'm trying to do....lol.......good luck

    Within 12 hours after you have your last cigarette, your body will begin to heal itself. The levels of carbon monoxide and nicotine in your system will decline rapidly, and your heart and lungs will begin to repair the damage caused by cigarette smoke. As your body begins to repair itself, instead of feeling better right away, you may feel worse for a while. It's important to understand that healing is a process that begins immediately, but it continues over time. These "withdrawal pangs" are really symptoms of the recovery process. When it comes to the harm done from smoking-cigs are one of the beat jar, reduction methods. After quitting, many ex-smokers experience "symptoms of recovery" such as temporary weight gain caused by fluid retention, irregularity, and dry, sore gums or tongue. You may feel edgy, hungry, more tired, and more short-tempered than usual and have trouble sleeping and notice that you are coughing a lot. These symptoms are the result of your body clearing itself of nicotine, a powerful addictive chemical. Most nicotine is gone from the body in 2-3 days.

    Take Our Stop Smoking Readiness Quiz!
    It is possible to talk yourself out of quitting by believing that your tobacco use is not a serious addiction. Here's a quick quiz to help gauge the seriousness of your tobacco use. If you answer "yes" to three or more of the following questions, your smoking may be more than just a compulsion.
    • Do I smoke everyday?
    • Has a doctor or dentist ever suggested that I stop smoking?
    • Do I find it difficult to imagine life without smoking?
    • Do I smoke to escape from boredom and worries while under stress or pressure?
    • Have I felt physical or emotional discomfort when trying to quit?
    • Do I buy extra tobacco supplies to assure that I will not run out?
    • Do I prefer activities and places that allow me to smoke?
    • Do I inwardly feel ashamed of myself because of my smoking?
    • Has my smoking caused a problem at home or in a relationship?
    • Do I ever find myself lighting another cigarette without consciously deciding to have another?
    • Do I feel that my life would be better if I did not use tobacco?
    • Do I continue to smoke even though I am aware of the health hazards associated with smoking?



    Ever Wonder What Happens to Your
    Body the Moment You Stop Smoking?

    Within 20 minutes of smoking that last cigarette, the body begins a series of changes that continues for years.
    20 MINUTES
    • Blood pressure drops to normal.
    • Pulse rate drops to normal.
    • Body temperature of hands and feet increases to normal.
    8 HOURS
    • Carbon monoxide level in blood drops to normal.
    • Oxygen level in blood increases to normal.
    24 HOURS
    • Chance of heart attack decreases.
    48 HOURS
    • Nerve endings start regrowing.
    • Ability to smell and taste is enhanced.
    2 WEEKS TO 3 MONTHS
    • Circulation improves.
    • Walking becomes easier.
    • Lung function increases up to 30%.
    1 TO 9 MONTHS
    • Coughing, sinus congestion, fatigue, and shortness of breath decrease.
    • Cilia regrow in lungs, increasing ability to handle mucus, clean the lungs, and reduce infection.
    • Body's overall energy increases.
    1 YEAR
    • Excess risk of coronary heart disease is half that of a smoker.
    5 YEARS
    • Lung cancer death rate for average smoker (one pack a day) decreases by almost half.
    • Stroke risk is reduced to that of a nonsmoker 5-15 years after quitting.
    • Risk of cancer of the mouth, throat and esophagus is half that of a smoker's.
    10 YEARS
    • Lung cancer death rate similar to that of nonsmokers.
    • Precancerous cells are replaced.
    • Risk of cancer of the mouth, throat, esophagus, bladder, kidney and pancreas decreases.
    15 YEARS
    • Risk of coronary heart disease is that of a nonsmoker.
    What Are Some Rewards of Quit Smoking!
    Within a few days you will probably begin to notice some remarkable changes in your body. Your sense of smell and taste may improve. You will breathe easier, and your smoker's hack will begin to disappear, although you may notice that you will continue to cough for a while. And you will be free from the mess, smell, inconvenience, expense, and dependence of cigarette smoking.
    It is important to understand that the long range after-effects of quitting are only temporary and signal the beginning of a healthier life. Now that you've quit, you've added a number of healthy productive days to each year of your life. Most important, you've greatly improved your chances for a longer life. You have significantly reduced your risk of death from heart disease, stroke, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, and several kinds of cancer¬p;not just lung cancer. (Cigarette smoking is responsible every year for approximately 130,000 deaths from cancer, 170,000 deaths from heart disease, and 50,000 deaths from lung disease.)

    If you are having a difficult time quitting smoking then ask your Doctor how he can help. There are medications that can help you quit.
    Some of these meds block the nicotine from attaching to the pleasure center in your brain. Each time you light up the nicotine stimulates the part of the brain that gives you pleasure, when that affect wears off in a short time it makes you crave more nicotine to pleasure that part of your brain, hence the "Nicotine addiction" and can lead to chain smoking. Once you can break this chemical addiction then you need to change your lifestyle to avoid smoking. If you have a smoke with your coffee every morning then stop drinking coffee for a while, if alcohol triggers your urges then you will need to curb or stop for a period. What ever triggers your craving to smoke, avoid. Good luck to all those that have chosen to stop the habit.

    Whats in a cigarette?

    Here is a list of some of the key ingredients that make up today's cigarettes

    There are more than 4,000 ingredients in a cigarette other than tobacco. Common additives include yeast, wine, caffeine, beeswax and chocolate. Here are some other, more concerning ingredients:

    Ammonia: Household cleaner
    Angelica root extract: Known to cause cancer in animals
    Arsenic: Used in rat poisons
    Benzene: Used in making dyes, synthetic rubber
    Butane: Gas; used in lighter fluid
    Carbon monoxide: Poisonous gas
    Cadmium: Used in batteries
    Cyanide: Deadly poison
    DDT: A banned insecticide
    Ethyl Furoate: Causes liver damage in animals
    Lead: Poisonous in high doses
    Formaldehiyde: Used to preserve dead specimens
    Methoprene: Insecticide
    Megastigmatrienone: Chemical naturally found in grapefruit juice
    Maltitol: Sweetener for diabetics
    Napthalene: Ingredient in mothballs
    Polonium: Cancer-causing radioactive element
    Methyl isocyanate: Its accidental release killed 2000 people in Bhopal, India in 1984

    Cigarette contents 'tweaked'

    The tobacco industry has 'tweaked' the cigarette producing process over the last hundred years or so to get smokers hooked more effectively. Take the addition of Ammonia for example. Often thought of as a toilet bowl cleaner, it's an additive in cigarettes for the simple reason that it helps your lungs absorb cigarette smoke more quickly and so you get more of a 'hit' from your cigarette.

    How about the addition of chocolate? Well that's there to take away the bitter and potentially off-putting taste of a 'natural' tobacco.
    What does a cigarette contain? on Kismet-Hypno, Free stop smoking resources page

    What about nicotine itself? Is a stimulant in small doses, and forms part of the addiction. But in large doses, nicotine is actually a depressant. If you think about the cycle for a second, you begin to see that as you begin to smoke, you get addicted to the stimulant part of the nicotine hit. Then as you get more and more 'dependant' on this you smoke more and gradually begin to feel the depressive effects of a larger dose of nicotine, which in turn often leads smokers to smoke more. Hence the cycle continues and the grip of a cigarette tightens.

    The whole design is there to make it as difficult as possible for smokers to get off cigarettes, and the industry succeeds in doing this very well! The product that you have come to know as the modern day cigarette is actually a cocktail of ingredients, many deadly, and sophisticated marketing specifically tailored to get you hooked and keep you there.

    In America, many of the poisonous chemicals in cigarettes are governed by strict federal regulation laws - except in the instance of tobacco products.

    Does it surprise you to consider that a product that not only allows the smoker to ingest more than 4000 hazardous compounds over 70,000 times a year, but also affects members of the general public via the means of second-hand smoke, is allowed to be sold legally and is actually exempt from many of the laws and legislation that should in theory outlaw it? Could this possibly be due to the huge income generated through taxes levied on the product?

    We'll leave it to you to decide on that point but also consider this, around 100,000[2] deaths a year are contributed to smoking and smoking-related illness and disease.

    "The witch's brew of poisons invades the organs and tissues of smokers and nonsmokers, adults and children, born as well as unborn, and causes cancer, emphysema, heart disease, fetal growth retardation and other problems during pregnancy. The harm inflicted by all other addictions combined pales in comparison. Smoking-related illness, for example, claims in a few days as many victims as cocaine does in a whole year." - Quit Smoking Support
