Oga, go to rehabilitation center

I intended doing so. The bill is outrageous and the amount of time I think I can't cope with. Cos it would amount to me losing my job. How then will I cope?

I never said you smoke.. shocked

The causes they give are speculative?

You mean..

The anecdotal evidence,that most lung cancer patients are smokers,is just coincidence?

The huge mountain of evidence that shows that Whites are more prone to skin cancer,due to UV exposure,than Blacks..

Are mere conjecture?

They don't know what they are talking about? grin
Yes if they had it would have been curable easily by now.. fashi all things you see online

Straight to the point,

I'm a chronic addict of alcohol and cigarettes. I use them heavily and that has caused me a lot of health issues. I'm struggling but couldn't quit.

I smoke and drink at the detriment of my health which has seen me access the hospital on many occasions than normal.

I've applied all techs thru people's testimony of how they quitted but none worked with me.


I swear every night that I've quitted but on first light the next day the craving increases.

I'm battling multiple health issues and I need help.

Please, anyone with a way out help please. If I don't quit now, I'd kiss mother Earth sooner.

I need SOLUTIONS...

I know you're right but, it's not that easy believe me


The easiest way to stop cigarette is to pick up weed. Yes, I know what I'm saying. Firstly, you're replacing one act with another, which is the first step to stop an addiction.

If you're new to weed, you won't have the ability to consume as much as you do cigarettes in a day, thus, reduction.

Weed will make you sleep more and increase your time off smoking.

Smoking of weed will reduce your alcohol intake drastically. Just get enough juice, preferably, Sodas. As you light weed, you kiss to feign the feeling of alcohol, weed will do the "highing".

Weed is also prescribed for those living with terminal illnesses, but only taken in moderation.

I don't know how you will eventually quit weed though, but a joint a day won't kill you, that I'm certain.
Best of luck man.

Ur healing already started d moment u are aware is dangerous and you will die soon, so prepare your things and write your will. But if u feel u still want to stay longer, take it easy on yourself, reduce d quantity u take gradually, for instant if u take a pack in a day reduce it to let's say half or even less, each month give urself a Target and try to achieve it, I pray God help you and know this that God loves you and will help you over come it, only if you trust on him. Avoids friends or joints that are involve in it

Hello, i do not really know if you are ready to stop but let me share my experience with you on smoking and consuming alcohol for about 25 years of my life. i tried to stop that rubbish but i could not, i tried and tried and tried all to no avail. it got to one particular year, i decided to calculate how much i had spent buying cigarette and alcohol, i was shocked to have discovered that i had spent over N500,000. my health was deteriorating and yet i could not stop, i seek for help from friends and from every other avenue yet no solution. one day i wake up and i was gasping for breath, my heart was failing, i was having severe issues with my health and i knew for sure the origin of my health issues and yet i could not stop. That very morning i decided to seek Jesus Christ with all my heart and that was it, i am free from cigarette and alcohol addiction till date. i have seen people that died as a result of addiction to alcoholism and smoking and i have seen people tried to stop on their own but they could not, they died living in it. brother you can not stop this on your own, there is a demon attached to this. the same demon responsible for masturbation is responsible for smoking and alcoholism.

I pity people who are addicted to smoking.

I've learned that that habit shiit is almost impossible to quit. Smh.

Imagine Maurizio Zari's addiction to smoking that they had to create a dummy cigarette for him to be licking in substitute to real smoking.

That's how dangerous it is to be a smoking addict.

Despite my street cred, street life, gangster life, little hooliganism and with the kind of niggas I grew up with (all back then), I never licked cigarette b4.

Though I don chop weed + cooked beans before, that day I come go play football, like 5 mins after, e come be like say I dey in the 7th heaven. grin grin grin
That was the 1st and last time I got weeded.

Neva smoked b4.

Now, how do you people learn how to smoke?

If you can trace it back, use that means to end ur addiction. On smoking.

If you can't... I have nothing to say.


God bless u.

Thanks boss. I just wanna be sincere. The best reasons and advice I've had on this issue is same you're offering. Sincerely, I pray they teach how to believe. Whenever I try praying, thoughts roam my mind distracting the process and sooner or later, I sleep off. I know It's funny but true. Now I realized why even the disciples of Christ asked him to teach them how to pray. Very serious.

Bro if your intention to quit is health motivated only, it may be very difficult for you to quit this addiction. See it as a sin, genuinely ask God for help. Do a 3 day fasting and prayer with the intention of quiting, you will be amazed how God will take away your addiction. I was a serial smoker, it was so bad that even if i during water i will smoke white London. I took the decision to stop smoking, i did a 1 week fasting and prayer and God answered. I haven't smoked any type of cigarette since i quit in 2003. No addiction is easy to stop, na why we need to run to God. Good luck bro

Lucky u. I'm envious. I pray for a testimony too

Might sound funny the best and easiest way to stop is to replace it with another addiction.
Try hanging out with sensible ladies- this will make you stop faster as they wont like you oozing of cigarette and alcohol.

Thanks bro... But do suggest a healthy replacement.

Bros I was once an addict(smoking and drinking) and stopped a few months back. A friend of mine was surprised when he saw that I've stopped and decided to stop as well. Everything is all about determination and action.

Once u stop it,don't go to any smoking or drinking place, discipline yourself. That's how I stopped bro. And also back it up prayers.
Re: Help! Addiction Has Taken Everything... by Newtonn047: 6:26pm On Sep 13, 2021
U can stop an addiction without replacing it with another addiction, human brain is flexible the point is if u can deny your Brain from any dopamine increasing substance it will reset to normal dopamine level 12months of abstinence will do d magic
Juliusmomoh:
Addiction can only be replace with another addiction... You can't stop smoking and alchohol without looking for another addiction to back it up...

Stop hanging out with friend who smoke and drink.
Visit a doctor.
Don't listen to the guy that comment first.

Lastly

Visit any gym center around you.

I had a friend like you though he doesn't smoke but he is a heavy drinker like 4 to 5 bottles of life beer daily . He says he is addicted and can't quit until November 1 2020 when he fell in a bar and developed partial stroke. Since that day till today he has not tasted anything alcohol n bedridden with partial stroke, let the health warning be a warning to you.

Quit smoking

You can start quitting alcohol gradually from once a week to once in 2 weeks to once a month to very occasionally

Whoa... Sincerely sorry for that friend of urs. I pray it doesn't happen this way to me. I tried without alcohol a couple of days but ended up in the hospital with a severe migraine. My head was doing a heat not ever recorded to Elvis Presley. God please help us.
