    Stop smoking to save yourself.
    Admirable.


    Two months later, get side-swiped by a car.

    True.

    I notice that non-smoking ladies react and behave friendlier now. That's pleasant.

    Indeed.

    Haven't smoked a tobacco ciggie in years or even one of those 'Way Out Woodbines' in a long while but the stink gets in your clothes/hair/breath.

    Haven't fully quit smoking yet but I have made it through four consecutive days at work without a cig during my shift. No small feat. The weekend is going to be the challenge.

    You are still a smoker who is craving a smoke all day. Just stop. When you are not looking forward to giving yourself a treat / reward at the end of the day in the form of a smoke, you will forget all about it.

    By using positive reinforcement you are making your head think that smoking is incredibly important to you.

    If you made it past four days you're now a non-smoker!!

    So regard yourself as that, someone who doesn't and doesn't need to smoke.

    Just say, "I don't need it" or , "I don't want it" and do or think of something else.

    If that don't work, use lobelia, just one bit of leaf and the thought/urge/feeling/ craving for tobacco's gone in less than a minute or so.

    Once that early stage of craving is over, you won't need lobelia again.

    Read what he says closely Ent - he didn't smoke at work for four days, but when not at work puffed away like a good'un. So he is still a smoker who is tricking his body and mind into thinking that smoking it very important because after 10 hours fighting it, he rewards himself with a smoke.

    Read it.

    Where did Storekeeper say he "puffed away like a good'un " when not at work, then after 10 hours at work rewards himself with a cig?

    I'd like to read what he has to say about it.
    A good method of quitting tobacco is to first reduce consumption, your own way, then quit entirely.

    He's obviously trying to quit and looking for some positive feedback to help.

    I first reduced smoking over a few weeks, then quit, then used lobelia periodically in the first few weeks.

    Now I'm over tobacco use and happy about it.

    How's your effort at quitting going?

    I did nothing but post info from Wikipedia, the first port of call for many, which incidentally gave balance to your post. I said nothing to discourage others from trying Lobelia. It's probably a good idea, being similar in structure to nicotine. I did however find it amusing that it has such alternative names, in light of posts by YOU.

    As for your statements, they stand alone:

    are you sure?

    Good point.

    OK Storekeeper, you CAN do it. Just don't give up! Good work on not smoking at work.

    Don't worry if it doesn't come easy. It didn't come easy to me to. Do whatever YOU need to do, or think you need to do to quit. If it means gently reducing your smoking amount by not smoking at work...then do it. You are doing SOMETHING. And that's a start. If you are able to go through work without having to smoke...that's better than alot of people can do.

    If you need to, then just gradually cut down your smoking levels a day. If you need, then do nicotine replacement--nicotine gum, nicotine patches, nicotine losenges, electronic cigarettes, ...whatever you think you need. It helped me to make the transition to not smoking cigarettes at all. Whatever it is that you think you need to do to help you, do it. We're not judging you here. We're encouraging.

    yes, but you will always be an ex-smoker

    Lobelia cannot help you against the mental addiction

    when others light up, when you have a cup of coffee, whatever the trigger, you will want to light up

    That will last your whole life

    ^
    As with any addictions there are various levels. If you were a 'heavy' smoker you'll always crave a puff with that cup of coffee or beer. If you were a 'recreational' smoker for want of a better term, the cravings are not as intense. Read somewhere where nicotine withdrawals can be harder to deal with than cocaine.

    Yes ENT....go and have a good puke.



    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Lobelia
    (pron.: /lɵˈbliə/)[2] is a genus of flowering plants .[3] English names include lobelia, asthma weed, barfweed, Indian tobacco, heaveleaf, pukeweed, retchwort, fool's bane, and vomitwort

    Adverse effects
    Because of its similarity to nicotine, the internal use of lobelia may be dangerous to susceptible populations, including children, pregnant women,[21] and individuals with cardiac disease. Excessive use will cause nausea and vomiting.[22] It also has a chemical known as Lobellicyonycin, which may cause dizziness.
    Several studies show that lobelia is ineffective in helping people to quit smoking.

    Sound the klaxon ! Meltdown approaching !


    Actually, Wikipedia was simply the first port of call for me, and I found it highly amusing to see a herb you have been touting so much, referred to as "barfweed, heaveleaf, pukeweed, retchwort, fool's bane, and vomitwort". Somehow it seemed apt in your case.
    You really should research things better, like Gouty Arthritis, before decreeing that it doesn't exist.
    You've got a serious problem LD.

    All you're doing is spreading negative information re. lobelia, just in a puerile effort at point scoring.

    Anyone interested in giving up tobacco is going to look past your negative tripe and references and read for themselves, then try lobelia (allready used in Champix).

    It's gonna be up to them to judge not you, sicko.

    The harm you're doing is sickening.
