What are your best tips to quit smoking? ?

I’ve been smoking heavily for about 30 years. Quit date is set for June 1 2020 no matter what. Cold turkey. In the meantime, I’m charting what time I’m smoking and how many I’ve smoked so far     

I’m down about 40%, it’s a start. 

Having the most trouble first thing in the morning until about noon. Open to suggestions.

    Why are you asking in the cancer section?

    The key to quiting is actually really wanting to quit.  Unless you have the will to quit you may fail the first few times.  If you lack the will no form of assistance will help.  Keith Richards said quiting heroin was easier than quoting smoking.

  • Realise how disgusted non-smokers are when you light up a cigarette near them... I can tell you right now, if I'm anywhere near a person smoking, I automatically think of them as having severe issues going on in their lives.

    It's true, people who smoke are just trying to block a negative situation out of their heads.

    Cold turkey and fear of COPD worked for me.
