(DAY 1 AGAIN) HOW ? THE FIGHT TO QUIT SMOKING CIGARETTES! - Chantix, Zyban, Nicotine Patches, Gum

[ccrewson3]

I'm 26 and have been smoking half a pack a day for 10 years. Nicotine patches work the best for me!!!!! I have quit twice using it with zero side effects, only happiness that it works so well!! I have tried Chantix (Champax in Canada) and it worked... But I have never felt worse In My life! It changed my personality in a negative way and my close friends and family made me stop taking it. I tried cold turkey, hypnosis, and the gum, and none of these worked for me. Good luck to everyone quit

[gamefan101]

I used the patches and they make me puke the gum sets my tics off because I have tourhetts Im really looking foward to chantix

[wolffmagic72]

I like what you said in the video and on the info about not feeling guilt about being a Christian and smoking, people who do may not be reading the Bible. However, God does help those who help themselves and I have found that kicking the denial always helps. I think everyone has a different method, it was psychological for me- the puff, the mood or coffee/beer. At the end of the day- we know it's never too late....till it really is. God bless you brother

Read Allen Carr's Easyway to stop smoking! Would you say to the heroine addict who's actually smoking the heroine no don't smoke it, smoking's bad for you; here instead inject it into your vein...? Nicotine patches prolong your addiction. The longest I 'lasted' on Zyban was 3 days and when the treatment was over I was still smoking. After reading Allen's book I quit immediately, easily and I was actually waking up laughing even during the 'withdrawal period'... 16 yrs of slavery over and FREE!

remember,anything is possible, God bless

I quit smoking almost 7 yrs now after 22 years of smoking.I used to smoke menthol light 100s.I was told to start smoking regular light cigarettes and i was told i would smoke more,but after smoking lights for a while i went back to my normal usage.I discovered that it was just as I heard "you need to really want to quit". I prayed alot over the years and I started chewing the new mint flavored nicotine gum and that worked for me.Before I was sick 7,8 x a year and now it's either once or zero.

[spottybott]

[ma5one]

[GemPiece]

@ma5one did you stay quit??

[ma5one]

@GemPiece yeah 5 months quit, but im still chewing the gum and i shouldnt of after july 4th, but it takes longer for some. it helped

[alphatan2]

E-cig helped me.

[mary03450]

Can't take the pills because they interact with my other meds, gum doesn't work, neither has the inhalers. I find the patches do work but need a solution to keep them on. If you sweat they come off. I'm on day 4 but frustrated as I've alreadty applied 2 today. If anyone has a solution please let me and others know. Thanks :) Well done for quitting Todd. Thanks for posting.

[ktoddweaver]

Are you using genereic patches? If so, get Nicoderm... I have a video posted all about "generic patches" and how they don't stay on.. you can use, duct tape and that will keep generic patches on, but I hate using duct tape because it does not do the skin good after a few times.

NICODERM is the best, and will not fall off!

I will send you a message!

Todd

[ktoddweaver]

Also, dont forget to use RUBBING ALCOHOL, to clean your skin before applying the patch..

[TheSerjicalstrike]

@mary03450 yeah i know exactly what u mean, i work out in the sun and this happened to me, they dont come cheap, and i was using them up too quick becuase after i sweat, they "melt" and even if i can get them to stick, they dont work anymore even if its 2 hours old. i used duct tape believe it or not out of common sence, haha but it just made the whole area sweaty and gross.

[mary03450]

patches keep falling off, tried medical tape to keep them on to no avail...help

[lumbug]

oh, and another good way to quit is....

everytime you get a craving, masturbate.

[ktoddweaver]

That's funny, I found that to be just the opposite!

I have found the most effective way to kick that craving for a cig down is to pray, pray and pray to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He does not only help take the craving away, He helps to take it ALL away!

It's much better than going through endless bottles of hand lotion!

[lumbug]

@ktoddweaver I didnt even realize this was a religious video

[lumbug]

it's not about quitting.

you can tell he still wants a cigarette.

the truth is that we all want a cigarette.

but like all things good, it requires some disapline.

I LOVE SMOKING

BUT IM NOT DOING IT

[ktoddweaver]

HERE IS A TIP FOR YOU ALL: Go buy some mint flavor cough drops. Whenever you get the normal urge to have that "smoke going down the throat" type of feeling then do this:

Pop a cough drop, (mint works best) and take deep breaths. This will help you and take away the urge to feel the sensation of taking a drag for a cigarette.

It works great!

hi there, i have tried everything in the past to quit smoking, i smoked 50 yes 50 fags per day they were killing me, for the last 12months i have thought of nothing else but to pack fags in so i made an appointment at the doctors to join a NHS no smoking clinic, she advised me on loads of different NRT products,eg patches-sprays-tablets, i chose the nicotine nasal spray, on the 25th November 2009, in two days time it will be three months, if i can do it so can you best of luck to you all thanx

[ch1rp1reh]

i am quting it and so far its been 1 day and i am using nicotine gum . can some one introduce me the side effect of nicotine gum and how to chew it

[ktoddweaver]

There is really no side effect, except you don't want to actually chew the gum, but chew it just enough to release the nicotine, and then let it sit under your tounge or on the side of your mouth for about 5 minutes, then chew it a couple times, and put the gum in a different spot for another 5 min.

I actually used the patch, and would chew the nic gum, when I had really bad cravings during the first week..

So, you don't want to chew nic gum like regular gum, otherwise it does not work.

[ktoddweaver]

I am now over 3 MONTHS of not smoking cigarettes! Using the patch and wellbutrin. As you can see, from Day 1 to Day 90 - I gained 20lbs which I needed anyway!!

Feels great to be a non smoker, and I well tell you one thing, that nothing matters, patches, gum, medication, unless you do it WITH GOD. That is where I give God all the credit for helping me and giving me strength to break this deadly bondage! God is the answer!!!!!

[thesteveoman]

Almost on my 5th day :)

still just using the gum, withdrawals still really bad,but am hanging on!

how are you doing?

thanks for the videos they have helped alot.

[ktoddweaver]

Good Job brother! I just finished up on a not so fun Day 3 and I am now into Day 4.

Today was the worst so far, but like you said "withdrawls still really bad, but am hanging on!"

That about sums it up for me also, now entering my 4th day.

Don't stop for nobody or nothing! Keep on going right to the straight path of victory!

[boomshakalalaka777]

First of all-Happy Birthday!!! This is probably the greatest birthday gift you have given yourself! You will do well on the Zyban, it will be very helpful:)

[ktoddweaver]

Thank you very much for the encouragemnent. It is now Day 3 and the Zyban (Wellbutrin) 150mg 2 x daily is working great in keeping that depression and bordom out when you quit smoking..

I do have to take the 2nd Zyban no later than 4-5pm otherwise I have a hard time trying to get to sleep.

So far, by the power and grace of God, this has been the most successful period in quitting cigarettes. It is like 3/4 of the time I forget that I even quit smoking! Then intense cravings = nictotine gum

[ktoddweaver]

Thank you so much for the encouragement! As I have ended Day 3 and now into Day 4, I must admit it was a little rough today, even with the patch.

Most of it was constantly reaching for a cigarette in certian places, or while driving.... but by the loving grace of God, I got through it and will see what Day 4 has to offer.

So how about you? If your down to 3-4 cigarettes a day, and you got the meds... just go get some type of nicotine supplement..and go for it. (ONLY if your ready fo course

[blfry1]

You give me hope. I have been smoking 20 years as well and I am 62 years old. This really gives me motivation to be free from these deadly cigarettes.

Keep us posted and thank you so much for this video!
