I have to quit smoking cigarettes tomorrow

Both a good friend of mine and my mother in law completely quit nicotine using an e-cig. Everyone is different, and this certainly is a viable option. One could stay on the highest level of nicotine with Nicorette, though IDK why they'd want to!

 

It can be used the same way as the gum, patches, etc. They have cartridges with high nicotine, med, low, and no nicotine at all. They've worked for more people that I've talked to than any other method for quitting. So there, I told you differently.

Nicotine in itself isn't any more harmful than say, caffeine. As I understand it anyways, I'm no doctor.

 

yeah well aware of the different levels.. still shitty.. how many folks out there using an e-cig with no nicotine? probably a very slim percentage.. quitting cigs in the end is strictly a will power thing.. not a "omg i need nicotine"... nicotine leaves your system rather quickly.. the first couple days it's just a matter of not touching one.. after that. it's pretty clear sailing.. it's them dumb slip ups that get you off the wagon.. like going out and bumming a cig from someone.. or a couple cigs.. and then bam.. back off.. it's will power.. imho.. nicotine is as addictive as marijuana.. both can be kicked easily with some willpower

 

I'm giggling at the post suggesting e-cigs. OP's quitting because of having no income...e-cigs are expensive!

I quit a month ago..its fucking tough. I used patches this time around, but I only did 2 of level 1, and then 2 of level 3 over four days before I stopped. The patches really irritated my skin and I was over most nicotine withdrawal by then. So if you can, find some way to wean if cold turkey's too hard.

 

You can get an e-cig at the gas station for under $10-less than the cost of 2 packs of cigs! Heck, you can get a rechargable unit *and* liquid for refills for around $20.

Maybe at your gas station... Ain't a single gas station around here that sells them

Good luck, you're going to need it.

 

Just replace the cigs with weed if you're baked off your ass all day you wont be craving cigs at all i'm sure...

*EDIT* nevermind, if you're quitting cigs due to financial issues i dont see how you'd be able to buy bud, and being baked off your ass all day wouldn't help you in making money i'm sure, ignore my advice

 

I strongly disagree with those who talk down ecigs.

Yes, you're right, it's just other nicotine.

If you're addicted, you should spend as little money as you can, and do as little health damage as you can. ecig does both. You can get them that give a LOT of nicotine, back when I smoked a few packs a week I tried a friends ecig, it was a nice one, I think it had aujustable nicotine speed. I took like three hits and was dizzy, it was like a cigarette and a half in ten seconds.

So; it will satisfy your addiction, it doesn't settle and smell like to shit to anyone who doesn't have a cigarette in their mouth, it's bazillions of times healthier, and it's cheaper.

Other than that, just..... quit. I realized I no longer enjoyed smoking about 2 years ago. Quit. If I'm really tired or depressed and someone has cigs I'll have one, and be all smiles for a few minutes, but other than that, I don't crave them, sort of did for a few days, living with heavy smokers.... I realize everyone's different, but I don't think they're THAT impossible to quit.

 

I agree with this 100% I still crave them a bit now and then, but in general I really don't want them any more.
