Hmmm... I also remember isolated Tyrosine doses being used as treatment for substance addiction / abuse. Let me see what I can dig up... more to follow.

Also, you may consider a running a detox product to help clear your system of existing toxins and carcinogens. This may also help to more rapidly diminish those nasty nicotine cravings.

rimonanbant is supposed to be really good for these purposes.

Needed to quit smoking:
- a firm and *clear* intent;
- the discipline to pursue that intent come what may;
- the flexibility to adapt, improvise, and overcome the resistance you'll encounter (internal *and* external)

Without those, all the rest is bu11sh!t - nothing will help you do what you're unwilling or unprepared to do for yourself.

That said, there're plenty of avenues available to you in this game; it's just simple truth that the game is more mental and emotional than physical, and you need to plan, prepare, and eopn to opportunity. First step (and it's a biggie) is to change your smoking from an habitual behaviour to an active choice.

Sorry to break this off, but I've got a my plate very full at the mo - I'll be back soon w/ more thoughts. BTW - my remarks are based on stopping smoking after 35 years.

2 of my friends just went to a hypnotist to stop smoking cigarrettes, both these guys smoke cigarettes like crazy, in fact i just cleaned out the one guys bimmer and counted 7 empty packs! anyways neither one of them has the urge to smoke cigarettes anymore, it's crazy.. i did however catch one of them smoking a cigarette at the bar, i called him out and he said he just did it cuz he was drunk, and then threw it away, even so i haven't seen him with a cigarette since.

You have to first stop thinking about stopping smoking.

Think about having the choice to keep your lungs clean.

Change the way you think about smoking. Think about all the bad things that happen when you smoke. Each time you take a drag think about what the smoke is doing to your body.

Watch the movie "The Insider" or "Thank You for Smoking".

Find something to hold in your hand and put in your mouth, other than food, that can sub for tobacco.

I am about to start Chantix once it arrives. I read on other boards about guys using it and it seems really interesting and successful. Good luck on your quest!

[ohiostate2827]

NOOOOO! dont listen to this guy!

people try to find all these things to try to make them quit smoking.

From all the people i know that quit smoking, the only thing that works is.. you really have to not want to smoke anymore.
You have to care about your health and just stop for the right reasons. Otherwise you will make excuses and have one cig here and another there and before you know it your back again.

Just reach down grab your balls and say i quit FCK YOU marlboro man!
Its kind of like anything else in life. I like to compare it to lifting weights. People try all these "cutting edge supplements" and all these supper detailed diets and they dont even have the basics down. Which is get your ass in the gym, train hard, eat, and pray before you sleep. You just got to do it and thats it.

You just have to be strong and really want to quit. Then just do it!!!

i was just kidding with that start dipping post, lol, i was addicted to dip, going through about 3 cans a week for a couple years, what i did was weaned down to skoal pouches, then skoal bandits, for a while, a couple months, then one day i threw the can out and said no more, that was it, i haven't dipped since, but let me tell u, i get the cravings all the time still, and its been over a year, its hard, i have come so close so many times but haven't.. thats the way to do it... by the way dipping is 100 times harder to quit then ciggarettes, i quit cigarettes easily.... not to mention the amount of nicotine in the average pinch of dip equals the same of about 3 ciggarettes.

Surely the only weak thing here is addictions. Good for you man for quitting from such a hard stance. Casual nicotine users have a hard time quitting, but more regular users must have cravings that can be far more difficult. Great job! I'm sure the thought of your teeth falling out or the saggy lips/cheeks helped... man that stuff is anything but nice.

[moklepaul]

I dipped for maybe 2 months. I still get cravings...
