Cold Turkey
I think that if anyone want to quit smoking there is only apporach that can work that is cold turkey and second thing is a ex-smoker is always be a ex-smoker never can him/her attains the status of non-smoker which is due to anytime a single cigarrette can start a chain reaction which may never stop.
Welcome hhasan, if cold turkey works for you go for it, it will not be everyone's road to a smoke free life but that is OK, we all have one thing in common, we are on the same journey to a smoke free life the path we take may vary but that is also ok.
I totally agree that one cigarette or even one puff of a cigarette can start us back on the smoking train, so stay strong work through the cravings and don't give in.
I wish you well on your journey
Hi hhasan. It seems not everyone can go cold turkey initially. Regardless of how one gets started on the journey it is a sad thing knowing over 90% will fail in their attempt. After 617 days, I have only a few regulars who have shared my journey, the highs, the lows and best of all, the laughs. Seems at some stage people succumb to stresses but we know this is just an excuse to light up. I hope You continue to post and let all know of your progress.
