Speak Your Mind - How to Quit Smoking When You Believe You Can't

Day 40 after 18 years smoking

Enjoyed the interview. However, you lost me when you talked about the study....due to personal experience, they just want the warning taken off and the study is false information

very kind man, this kindness is helping me today, I did not see anybody else feeling empathy to poor smokers

I was standing outside smoking while it was -12 degrees and i realized im retarded and need to stop thats while i was halfway through this video

I’m 29 today started abusing nicotine at the age of 10 year old ✌️

And I won’t give up quitting smoking

Stay positive ❤

I may have to admit to my mental illness.. whatever it maybe & quit smoking.🙏

Each time baby, sucking on a peppermint now. Each time closer to success.

This interviewer is really good

Thank u. I quit today

this was very manner useful-2 people calmly discussing and framing in a down to earth manner thank you

I have hope again thanks to this episode 🎉❤
Tomorrow will be day 1 for me AGAIN.
The hundredth time is the charm😅😢

I feel like i was hooked on like the 3rd cigarette. Sort of blame my mom for smoking while pregnant, i fully believe she gave birth to basically an ex smoker that was already primed for the addiction. Not to throw her under the bus just fyi if your a pregnant woman you may be damning your child to it. Finally ready to quit after 20+years and all the bastard taxes they put on it, nothing has been taxed like it, and its fkd because it truly is the hardest to quit and the government can just rake in money from addicts and the general public actually agrees with that. They dont tax the tobacco manufacturers Just the users.

i'm in my 4th day and i feel like my cells thanking me and yelling at me at the same time. I feel as there is another person within me dying to go to the shop and asking for a pack. The simple buying of cigarettes is so appealing to me it hurts. I envision all the steps necessary for the purchasing of a pack of cigarettes. The idea of buying and coming back home to have a smoke (or 5) with coffee seems incredibly attractive. The idea of having smoke in my mouth and going into my lungs seems like "A BREATH OF FRESH AIR". Now THAT'S sabotage...

On the other hand, i know that after the first puff the level of disappointment would go through the roof, there won't be any fresh air but clogged arteries and risk of cancer. There won't be any peace but anxiety. There won't be joy but sadness and a constant reminder of weakness and subjugation. Seeing my beautiful supportive wife, which understands me even if i relapsed 100 times is even more saddening. Waking up coughing like mad and spitting brown goo that could be used as glue isn't a pretty sight at all.


The past weekend i stopped and it was such a peculiar weekend that felt to me like a completely different world. I've stopped before for more than 4 days (i think i went 3 weeks or so) but it was never like this. This weekend i did basically nothing but watch movies with my wife. It was like i was drugged, i felt so happy to just stay near my wife and talk about what we were looking at. Just wanted to share.


My body and my brain are dumb. They crave this poison like mad and i feel that this time it's different. To everyone going remotely through this, i wish you fortitude of mind, reason, logic and power! Luck won't help you.

Iam quiting I don’t want to die sooner that was motivational

I was addicted to heroin and fetynol for 8 years and i was addicted to cigarettes for 21 years. Quitting smoking was so much harder. I was a bad addict. It took medication for both. I used methadone for the opiates amd nicotine patches for the cigarettes. It was the only way i could get any meaningful time away from using innorder to even stert seeing any positives from not. Cold turkey aimt for everyone and harm reduction can work. Be compassionate with yourself when need be.
Someday you'll just be living your life life and it will dawn on you that you don't smoke anymore and you dont think about it anymore.

911 likes on this video as I'm watching it. I think it's a sign 😅

Day 2 here after 20 years of chain smoking

I've been at this now going on 55 years. I had stopped completely for about 6 months, but temptation is always looming in the background. I have been a smoker now for close to 55 years and it's not getting any easier. The problem is old movies and everyone smoking in the movies. I'm down to about 2 cigarettes a day, but the movies are always telling me one more won't kill me.
I have come to the conclusion that I AM going to die and no amount of not smoking is going to change that. I'd kind of like to be able to dictate the time I'm going to die, but that smacks of the notion of suicide.
I've been the caregiver of three different elderly non-smokers who all died and lived pretty miserable lives beyond 65..
I'm thinking that if I make it to 70 or so I'll have done pretty darn good.

20 snouts a day.

Well I listened till you said Chantix is ok even for those with mental health issues. Yeah ok...sponsored by big pharma clearly...will never say cold turkey is best or mention someone's book.

Just take an anti depression tablet stuff the cigs. Dopamine addiction. That's the problem.

Tobacco contains 7000 of shit
Nicotine is the safest a cigarette
But addictive like cannabis caffeine.

Its my 3rd day without smoking now. Its not easy but eventually it will get better i hope

I am on day 3 of going Cold Turkey. I tried many times before, but never ‘Cold Turkey’

Day 1 , I am a non smoker

Banda, I have to tell that I'm done smoking weed, it is hurting my memory so bad, I really need to quit and yes, Indeed, I think I can't, my friends also makes me feel a little bit pushed to smoke wherever we are. And I tell once to my family but I think they won't help me. Leftbehinded. But I have a Spark that will lead me to the success of being a healthy person, I will overcome this addiction for God sake

Thank you SO much for this video. I have had so much guilt for smoking. I dont smoke anymore, but still using a vape. Knowing that the nicotine itself wont hurt me...is a huge relief...and believe it or not, that guilt being lifted off of me is giving me hope that I can now quit. Feeling constant condemnation has not helped the problem. Thanks again.
I just had a lung x-ray and believe it or not...my lungs look good. I smoked for 48 yrs. My Mom, smoked all through her pregnancy during the 60's and maybe that is the " womb connection" maybe when I smoke, ot makes me feel close to my Mom? Or the womb. Hmmmm interesting realization I just had. My Mom was not very huggy either. Sorry for the novel.

Die from cigrate is not a problem but the life we suffer because of cigrate in health is main problem so till u live live healthly

I have smoked for some forty years and just had my first stint put in, I have another one scheduled in five days. I threw my cigarettes in the garbage last night and dug them out this morning and soaked the rest in water before throwing them away again. Good God Almighty…, I hope and pray that the medical field gets the message about how much they’re misdirected solutions are accountable to the people that are trusting them with their very lives…, get it right Doctors or stop enabling us to harm ourselves at the very least…, Please

Stress is the main trigger, for many. Don't plan to quit when you have a anticipated stressful event coming up. Put yourself in a strong position to succeed.

I quit 22 days ago cold turkey 🥶 🦃!!! so happy!!!
