How to quit smoking?? Advice

Question

I started smoking when I was 14 and I’ll be 20 soon and really want to quit smoking but it seems completely impossible. Does anyone have any tips?

Answer

I hyped myself up to quit cold turkey. Don't get me wrong, quitting 100x is better than never quitting at all. It's a process. I started by telling myself I'd only smoke after i ate, after i smokey smoked lol, or when i was mad/ stressed. Then i realized, thats all the time lol. Im making excuses, and ill never quit if i allow room for excuses. Then i literally grossed myself out with them. I'd give myself pep talks n what not for like 2 years. I thought about how our bodies were only meant to consume water, fruits, veggies, and meat, and anything more is going to cause damage somewhere down the line. Our lungs were not made to inhale smoke. Theyre already doing a great job filtering the dirty air we breath. I'd tell myself, i wouldn't burn a campfire of toxic chemicals and sit there n breath it in, juat bc im mad, or my belly is full, so why do I keep giving myself cigarettes? And I told myself that if I can't control myself, but a cigarette could, then I could potentially be controlled by someone else. You have to be your biggest influence. Be able to tell yourself no, and listen to it. It's a pretty big power trip to have control over yourself like that too lol. Plus think about how many things are banned or illegal, and then pay attention to why cigarettes aren't. They are almost certain to cause cancer. Cancer companies receive billions and billions of dollars in donations and fundraisers to find a cure, year after year, after year. Every pink ribbon sold, every boobie run, every patient that's paid for treatment and still lost the fight. They're literally helping us kill ourselves so they can profit from it. People are out here selling their entire lives just to pay for 1 round of treatment, and companies know it will never be enough. And even if it is enough, chances of it coming back are high. Love yourself enough to know that there's so much more to life than a ciggy. Try making a little box, and every time u get the urge, put a dollar in. If u get the chance, put a pack of cig $ in the box instead of buying a pack. Once u have some $ saved up, use it to take yourself on a small trip. Go see something you've always wanted to see or visit. Did u know there's so many round trip plane tickets for about $100? And remember, It's ok to slip up once in a while. Fight that craving as long as u can, if u break down n smoke one, it's not a big deal and it doesn't mean u failed. Just forgive yourself and try again. I've given this same talk to lots of ppl, and 7 of them have quit for good, i hope this gives u the strength and clarity u need to quit also! Best of luck to u 🖤 
p.s. U can msg me if u have questions or just need support or want to chat.

Okay, every person is different in how they quit smoking. 
I started smoking when I was 13. I quit cold turkey when I was 22 because I was pregnant. Sunflower seeds helped me. When ever I got the urge to smoke, I started cracking sunflower seeds. Gave me something to do with my mouth and made me thirsty, which made me not want to smoke. 
My husband had to turn to vaping to quit smoking. And though he's slowed down, he hasn't quit completely. 
And I had a friend who had to turn to the patches and gum. They didn't work for her and she still smokes but it doesn't mean it doesn't work for others.
