I’ve heard of people switching to vaping to help wean themselves off the nicotine. It isn’t better than quitting cold turkey but it’s a lot healthier and better than nothing

I'm a modest drinker. In the words of Kendrick Lamar "I'm a thinker not a drinker but still I Hennessy drag"


Mostly when I'm stressed out or simply when the craving is overwhelming

Lalasticlala help a brother

That's good! You can actually cut it down if you're determined

For me, it's harder because I drink (hard for me to drink without smoking), I'm always around people who smoke (which makes me feel like smoking) and it helps me ease stress and tension. If the above listed things are not involved, I could go days without smoking without feeling bad.

I've tried a million times quitting but I've returned a million and one times. Too bad. Lol. That's why I said it's a cross

I think the best thing to do in my own case is first, quit alcohol and avoid being around smokers. Both for me are almost as impossible as me quitting

What I try to do is cut it down. I've tried vap, it didn't work for me

lol vaping doesn't always help. Since I bought mine over a year a go, I haven't exhausted the bottle of apple flavour I bought with it. Infact I could count the numbers of time I used it before I switched back lol

Lol yeah didn’t think it would work for everyone but it’s still worth a try. How many cigarettes do you smoke a day on average?

My smoking rate depends

When I'm at work, I 'hardly' smoke. Infact, I don't. When I'm home, I'm able to manage how much I smoke (except when I'm drinking indoor)

But when I'm out drinking, taking work or anything, I could become a chain smoker.

I'll say I smoke box of 20 for 3/2 days. It all depends

I smoked my first stick of cigarette precisely in SS2 in 2007. Since then, I have tried to quit more times than I can count. Even though I know the health hazards attached, I do it anyway. I tried electric cigarettes but still went back to the conventional tobacco sticks. There are times where I smoked probably more than a pack a day, and there were other times where I rarely smoked a month. I just want to drop this habit permanently.

How can this be achieved?


replace it wit another habit.


it will take time, but it works

Re: Enter Here If You Are Trying To Quit Cigarettes by yemitexcel(m): 7:16pm On Jul 11, 2018

people have this misconception that you can’t be addicted to weed. But its real. If you have a dependency on anything, it’s an addiction. Weed addiction is probably worse because it messes you up mentally, cigarettes is more physical.

The only plus weed has, is just that it's more healthy, but as you pointed out it , it conditions your brain, and you get dependent on it.. it takes sheer will power tho

you know nothing, Lady Snow.. cry

Weed is a blessing. Weed need is my best friend..

If me nuh have ganja mi nuh happy cry

was once like you, until i started seeing the need to be happy without any enhancement. I mean why should i be miserable without marijuana?, it is nice i know, but why should a substance control my happiness. Think about it

If I may ask IS THERE SOMETHING IN YOUR MIND THAT DO BOTHER YOU AND YOU ARE BEEN CARRIED AWAY IN THINKING AND IN A BLINK OF AN EYE, YOU FIND YOURSELF SMOKING ?

if it is like that, you really need to get that things out of your mind, having a girlfriend is not the solution, it will only add another part to your problem..... without getting that off your mind, you can't be free from the problem and if you have problem in getting that out of your mind you need CHRIST, and I can show you how if you are interested it will really help you.,.Weed, girlfriend will not help.... BELIEVE ME

He'd probably end up in salesman mode, trying to convince you his brand is best and that you should have tried that.

I know how you feel. I started smoking same year after my SSCE and continued until I graduated from the University of Benin. I continued after my you'd service. I finally quit the habit last year November and till today, am yet to feel the urge to smoke.

Here's what I did and I hope it helps.

1. Avoid friends that smoke.
2. Avoid areas that gives you the urge to smoke. Places like clubs, bars, brothels, kparaga joints etc.
3. Look for a substitute addiction besides smoking but please don't turn to alcohol. Instead do stuffs like reading, zen meditation, fasting etc.
4. Cigarette addiction is caused by dopamine. I suggest you read about it.

kindly send me an email for more info memehchinedu@gmail.com
