How to quit smoking - Lincon - 03-05-2019
Hello everyone, I chose a time-frame that I wanted to quit by (my birthday).
As I edged closer to that date, I made sure to tell myself throughout the day that I look forward to quitting, saving money, being healthier, mobdro.bio/ luckypatcher.tips/ www.kodi.bio/ smelling better, etc. so daily positive re-enforcement to begin.
Then I would consciously leave my smokes behind on short outings. Then I'd start leaving them for longer outings. Eventually I began forgetting them and I would see how long I could go before I'd buy a pack. Basically make a mini-game out of it.
Eventually, I was getting so close to my date, and I was getting so comfortable without them, always with me, that I decided to quit 2 months ahead of schedule.
For the first time, I used the gum and the patches together. For 1 or 2 months.
I would have kept using them longer, but I think I'd slowly quit over the course of a full year, so I did not need the nicotine for long.
I'd recommend trying to view a smoke-free person, almost as a game or hobby to learn and master. You have to retrain your brain and body. As long as you keep trying, you will eventually succeed when you find the best method for you.
Good luck, you can do it!
