July 4th, 2009

I stopped smoking six weeks ago, but the cravings are still there, and often strong. Is there a way to stop these, and do they ever go away?

Congratulations on quitting! Yes, they do go away with time, but it does take a while. I’m afraid there’s not much you can do at this point but wait it out. But it’s worth it! I quit 5 months ago and still have a craving occasionally. Keep it up!!

Any tips to quit smoking?

July 4th, 2009


I read somewhere that when you finally take that step and quit, BUT … you (especially during the first few months) get an intense craving, REMEMBER THIS: any craving will disappear in five minutes — whether you light up a cigarette or not. So, go with the "or not" advice. I know it’s sooooo difficult. Oh! I also read that quitting smoking is by far the most important thing you can do for your health in your life that will truly have a significant effect on both your life span and your quality of life.

If acupuncture works for some then cold laser therapy may work for some similarly.

But not everyone will respond to treatment. And cold laser may be pricey.

You need will power to stop smoking. You will get nicotine withdrawal symptoms and you may miss the habit of putting a cigarette to your mouth but with determination to be healthy and to help those around you to be healthy I am sure you can do it insha'Allah [God willing]. You may benefit from taking a herb such as Passiflora incarnata or Avena sativa. Either of these may actually help with nicotine withdrawal. Chewing gum may help also.

It is said there are over 4000 chemicals in a cigarette and over 43 of these may be cancer-causing:

It harms you and those you love. I guess you know this and that is a reason you want to stop. Reminding yourself of this every day should help in giving up the habit insha'Allah.

Good luck with quitting and I hope the transition to a new healthier you is light for you.

Best wishes.
