My boyfriend quit recently, but he still smokes as his roommate smokes in his apartment. Such a drag.

Good luck with that. Though I’ve never smoked, I think quitting became much, much easier for people in NYC when it became illegal in restaurants and bars. It’s hard when it’s around you all the time… I remember meetings at the Mexico City office of a client years ago where everyone was smoking at their desks… I hated that!

Terrific list Wayne.

It’s always entertaining to read articles that mix a little humor with something as serious as quitting smoking. I especially loved #13 and #14. lol.

I was a heavy smoker ( 3 packs a day )for most of my 18 years of smoking. I tried all kinds of ways to quit smoking without success until I discovered, quite by accident, a method that helped me quit in less than 1 week. I’ve been a non smoker now since 1985. Never had a desire to smoke again since that last puff way back then. I’ve recently started a quit smoking website of my own, offering a different perspective on quitting. If you get the chance give it a read, maybe during one of your smoke breaks. Can’t be any more of a waste of your time than those 2 hours you made mention of in #21

To all you smokers hoping to kick the habit. I know how hard quitting is, but keep the faith, you can do it if you really want to. I’d just like to add a warning though, for anyone considering using a nicotine replacement product to quit, that’s a sure fire way to almost guarantee you’ll stay hooked for far longer than you need to.

However, if you think you can’t quit without an NRP, then you might consider trying an e-cig. Many brands actually taste and smoke like the real deal. And if you aren’t really sure about quitting but just want to save some money, at least you’ll cut your cost down by as much as 75% as well as lose about 4,000 toxic chemicals found in real cigarettes.

Anyway, once again, great article Wayne. Loved it!

This was a real great list…..
I sooooo know what you mean.
My back seat in my car used to get covered in empty packs.

I dont know if it would work for everyone,
but i have been using an e cigarette from an online company called elecorette…. and i have cut right down. from 30 a day last year to 3 smokes on my battery powered cigarette a day… and hoping to cut down to 2 a day at the end of the month.

I tried to give up using every quick fix there was going….
but nothing worked… this has been really good for me.
Also it has none of the toxins in it, so you feel loads better.

It’s worth a look into… you never know?!?!?
You can get them in black too…. which is great cause i like my black… wouldnt want to clash with anything i wore! hehe

For many, constantly reminding themselves that smoking is deadly has provided them the will. Some anti-smoking programs cultivate this fear, emphasizing the terrible damage smoking does to the body.

Yeah, Wayne have you quit yet?
I just wanted to add that cigs are $8 a pack here, thanks to the sixty five different cig taxes we now have. I’m exaggerating, but still it’s bad.
I still can’t believe there are [i]still[/i] so many people running over each other just to take time off their life span.

This is a great idea, I tried something similar, I carried a packet of cigarettes with me but kept a picture of my daughter in the box so every time I felt like a cigarette I would have to fight past my daughters eyes and it worked almost every time. If you are still struggling I know that there are some drug rehabs that have a section for people really struggling to quit smoking and want to spend some time receiving therapy/escaping from the world so it’s easier to not light up. My friend did this and it fixed her completely within two weeks.
