Reasons to quit

I find every time I get a craving I get up and move some examples do dishes clean out pantry or pull weeds in garden or just go for a walk. I hope this helps it really does work for me good luck everyone.

i’m 17 years old and addicted. it’s so embarrassing and no one knows about it. i feel so ashamed of myself. today is my first day in a year where i have not had a smoke

I’ve been a drug addict many years ago… for me cigarettes are my last drug enjoyment. It’s not speed or smack or codeine.. I’m a massive drinker and that also needs addressing. I see a shrink weekly for childhood sexual abuse and violence. But it’s all up to me now. No excuses and no one is coming to save me.

Smoking makes my mental health worse. Also the money i spend just adds to stresses

Hello all, I’ve been a full time smoker for a short portion of my life. There are just so many things I would like to do but that involves money. I have autism and often get use to a routine or habit. If anyone on here has autism and has managed to give up smoking. May I please have some advice please. Thank you.

After having a heart attack it really was time to give up I haven't had a smoke since giving up. I am on patches and an inhaler.

I want to quit to improve my own health in general and the wellbeing of others around me.

Earlier this year, before surgery my anaesthetist approached me and said “Do you know it is much harder for me to keep you stable because you are a smoker” I was really shocked and so ashamed. Today filling out my anaesthesia forms I declared myself a non smoker! I was so proud and relieved. Very empowering 😊

I’m Erin, I’m 41 from nsw. I started smoking when I was 15! I have a beautiful 5 year old girl and I’ve been smoking for all these years. I really want to give up smoking but having some difficulties. Would love to share and hear your stories.
