Without further ado, here’s the list of stuff I tried…

Going Cold-Turkey

I’ve tried the cold turkey approach and it worked… for the twenty or so times I tried it.

Going cold turkey only worked for a week or two until the urge to smoke kicked in more than ever. They say it’s after three days of pain where you finally get over the urge to smoke. This is really hard to go through, and I don’t know anyone who stopped for good by going this route.

The Lasers

A friend of mine recommended I go for the laser treatment. I paid 75$ for a session where some guy zapped a laser on the back of my neck and wrists. I’m sure he was laughing in the back of his mind, wondering who actually believes in this crap.

It’s funny: I walked out of there, feeling cured. I didn’t want to smoke anymore. After a few days, I had one cigarette because I had this small craving. The next day, I had three. After that, went up to six. The treatment was a placebo effect. After a few days, I was back to smoking half a pack a day at my regular intervals.

The Needles

I was so desperate once that I even tried acupuncture in hopes of it doing something. You guys ever got a hundred or so needles pierce through your skin? It made me want to have a cigarette after from the fear of needles.

The Patch

You’ve seen plenty of advertisement concerning the patch… I decided to give it a shot. This stuff made me so nauseous it was unbearable. Even more, it was more expensive than a pack of cigarettes! Also, the patch gave me a crazy rash on the spot where I applied it. I threw the first and last box straight to the trash.

The Gum

After the patch, I decided to try the gum. It had zero effect on me, and there was no gum out there that actually tasted good… Oh, the lozenges and candy were no better. If you check some health sites, you’ll notice there are problems such as muscle control, gum disease, hair loss (WTF!) and birth defects… no thanks.

Hypnosis

Absolute waste of time. I was a fool to pay this hypnotist 100$/hr to cure my cravings. Never again!

Smokeless Tobacco (Snuff)

This stuff is actually worse for your health than smoking cigarettes! There is a higher risk of developing mouth and lung cancer with snuff.

My Social Circle

You know, the biggest problem with the methods used above was my social circle. Most of my friends smoke, and the ones who aren’t regular smokers, have a cigarette when we go out partying at clubs. Each time I saw one of my buddies pick up a cigarette, I immediately gave in and had one myself.

What Helped me Stopped Smoking Cigarettes for Good

Finally, the fun part! Ok, so I used a product called Smart Smoker. With this, you basically replace your cigarettes entirely. It is a much safer alternative than smoking cigarettes, as there is no smoke, tar or tobacco! It is an electronic cigarette. Sounds like it’s from the future, huh? Trust me, once you try this baby out, you’ll never touch a cigarette again.

They currently have a free trial going on! Better act quick and snag a kit before the trial runs out.

Comparison Table

I did this quick table to show you guys all the different methods and costs involved… you’ll be surprised by the results!

Is this for real? An Electronic Cigarette?

Yes! I know, it sounds ridiculous, but this stuff really does work. It’s basically the safest alternative to smoking cigarettes, yet getting the same effect of actually smoking it. The taste, feeling and look of a cigarette is all there… but it’s not a cigarette! Crazy, I know.

Smart Smoker features are:

• No tar, smoke or tobacco
• No smell
• No ashes
• No carbon monoxide
• No more yellow teeth
• No more bad breath
• No flames or fires
• No harmful side effects

You can even smoke these in places where cigarettes have been outlawed: bars, clubs, restaurants, boats, cafes, airports and in your home again (in case you have a significant other who hates smoking…).

What comes with the kit?

You’re going to get your e-cigarette (the “atomizer”), battery, USB charger and 12 mixed-strength cartridges (which are equivalent to 12-20 cigarettes). Seriously, you guys have nothing to lose. Try it out already; your whole life is going to change once you stop the cigarettes, I guarantee it.
