    Hi Chris.. Hoping your videos help me, 3 year's ago I had a heart attack.. I stopped smoking that day for a year on the patch, but went out one nite had a drink with dinner and went and bought a pack thinking I will have just one. Well two years later I'm still smoking, have heart disease, I am going to cardiac rehab.. To get healthy. I have changed my eating habits and have started working out under supervision but I want and need to stop this nasty habit to achieve my dreams and to live!! I want to exercise and be healthy and reverse this heart disease.. Tonight I will put out my last smoke and Start this journey again!! Pray for me.. I need to achieve this for me and my daughter! You story gives me inspiration! Heres to my new journey in life 💓

      Sorry to hear you're sick, Tammy. Hope you feel better soon! Hold on in there - I never knew a cigarette to make me feel better when I was sick, it only ever made feel worse, especially if I was quitting. The worst of this will pass through and you'll be so grateful you got through it. Keep going and be proud of yourself for getting this far :)

    Hi, Chris. I just stopped smoking for 2 days. But a fellow veteran told me he stopped smoking for 5 years just by eating baby carrots. i might haveo do it too. I hope it will all work out for me too. It was a good suggestion. I eat my baby carrots with ranch dressings and it taste good. Thank you for your video.😂

    After watching a few of your videos and self-hypnosis one, afterwards, I was dreaming that I struggled with a snake that kept trying to bite me, but I kept hitting it against the ground until I finally defeated it. There was no blood, but instead, The snake's head was a Burrell of dried tobacco.

    I have tried everything from multiple medications, gum, patches, hypnosis, meditations, books, vaping, etc. Even on chantix for a second time. Nothing has helped . Going to start watching all your videos, as I really need to quit ASAP. And, I have entered those exact search terms many times over the years. This is the first time a video came up with that topic.

    Chris, I am struggling with quitting smoking as well, I really don't know how to do it. I like cigarettes and hate it because it is harmful, I know but still like it, I mean I like the smoke coming in and out of my chest. Maybe I like the smell of it in my nose, even though, I am having the worst time in my life ever. Got a carotid stenosis and can't even stop it. I am doing buteyko breathing and still can't get rid of cigarettes.

    I‘d doubt I‘ll stop I smoke everyday 10-15 cigarettes a day, I buy myself two big packs for a whole week which contains 55 cigarettes. The number may or may not be accurate but it’s around that what I smoke. Anyhow it’s so in control of me, I don’t have the will to stop even tho I know it’s harmful and I want and should stop. I hope after watching this video it changes it somehow

    Dangerous Rx DRUGS should be the last desperate option, but please read the package insert on all the risks including death. I realize these drugs seem to work for some people.

    what IS that bit that drags you back in, i wonder. after a week for sure theres no nicotine in the system, after a month or so one forgets about it, but still after years and years many go back. why is that? bugs me. been thefe myself several tjmes and found it easy to quit cold turkey yet i go back again and again. the longest i did was 3 years
