The smoking cessation drugs really? My husband is trying to quit smoking. He did it on his own for three months and then started again. He says he wants to try drugs now. Anyone with experience with a particular drug? Success? Side effects?
My boyfriend and a friend of the family used. The friend of the family has used for 3 months and stopped (she had a headache). She has not smoked in over six months. She did not want. As for my boyfriend, he has used throughout his first pack and side effects were bad for him. He had horrible gas and stomach cramps. It did curb his desire, but it did not really get involved. He just waited for the medicine to make him stop, do not stop on its own. He should give it a try if it is really serious and is willing to try to stop. The drug is useful, but it does not all work.
they only help a little.
You must understand that the term smoking is a total lie. Tobacco addiction is a serious, we need special remedies which are both psychological and medical.
Some medications, some may work in certain situations, and some do not work at all.
That your husband stayed out of the bondage of smoking addiction for three months, then returned to it is a true testament to the addictive nature of tobacco. Quitting smoking requires support and encouragement of family members and friends and colleagues!
It is terrible that smoking is still tolerated in this country, but being that these United States is a business-communist conspiracy to inspire us prostitutes and economic slaves consumers continue to spend our paychecks on things that we do not need, we are not encouraged to stop or not start smoking! Our government is for profit tax collection business enterprises run by the sect Republican mafia, so the emphasis is to encourage us to smoke or continue smoking, do not stop or stay away from them !
The end result is that there are some "cures" on the market, and many make money fraud or shallow for-profit trying to answer, does not cure the problem of nicotine addiction . Personally, I do not smoke, so I do not know the results of different "cure" products. But I know that smoking is to never stop a life-long effort, friends I know who do take the plunge into correct their addictive behavior.
I realize that I'm not offering solutions, but maybe my ideas will help you to screen through the crap there.
Almost all my friends and ex-smoking parents to quit smoking cold turkey without cessation drugs. Some of them have not smoked for over 5-6 years and my father has not smoked for over 20 years. I'm out over 3 weeks cold turkey for another test.
Complete the objective, and go! Good luck.
