help me please :(

[Paladino]

Ok so, I have been smoking properly since round about the start of July last year and I have intended to quit so badly on several occassions. Once I actually did quit for like two or three days but I just cant help it. I enjoy smoking but I know what it does to me, it slows me down I cant run around when playing football as much as I could. I know that it can and probably will shorten my life if I dont quit fast. Have any of you got any ways that can help me quit, I tried going to Cold Turkey, it doesnt work. My Mum wont help me because she says I dont smoke enough a day to be addicted, but I feel that I am addicted. Please help me, I dont want to die because of this habbit !!!

Say to your Mom, "I am obviously addicted if I can't stop on my own, if you won't help me, you are not a very good parent."

Force yourself to stop, get a hobby that will help you.

If you can quit for 3 days, you can quit.
its just up to you to stay motivated, the first three days are the worst.

Dude, tell your mom that you really need help. If she doesn't get help for you go to a adult ( a teacher, a counselor, a police officer (yeah I know it sounds bad but they can get you help) or some you trust). If you can quit for 3 days you can quit forever. If you need help go to a adult you trust and they can help you. Good luck dude.

mate calm down it aint that big a deal, but i understand how you want to quit. you will never be able to stop cold turkey its mentally impossible for you at the moment, so you will just have to restrict your self more and more. every week or so try and limit your daily intake by one ciggarette. or even try not smoking it down to the butt so you wont have the money to buy more. remember quiting does require maximum willpower, it will be like trying to stop masturbating, but if you want something be deturmined and go get it know what i mean?

you could also try nicotine patches or call the NHS for those quitter kits for more info

Ok well im fifteen and i have been smokeing drinking and usingdrugs since i was 11 and it sucks to quit. What i do is atend meeting with othere people who have the same problems as me and know how to help me. I quit because i got caught and arrested and i stared after a year again. Now i stoped because i have a beutiful amazing irl who motivates me not to and really thats all i need is motivation. Talk to your mom you cearly are addicted and she is not someone to say other whise. Find a reason and stick to it. No worry's you find a way
