-- Posted by Teenie1 at 8:55 am on Oct. 23, 2008 I did cut down. But now im back on like 10 a day... I used to be on like 20.... :S -- Posted by barnabas at 8:57 am on Oct. 23, 2008 10 is better than 20. Have you considered trying to us a patch, or something else to help you quit smoking? Keep working hard. Try cutting your cigs in half...so you are smoking less every time. -- Posted by Aphrodite54 at 8:58 am on Oct. 23, 2008 Try keeping yourself busy so you don't think about it. I used to smoke but I got over it, (partly because I thought it was stupid to be 14 and smoke ). I was so busy with after school activities and school that I didn't think about cigarettes. After about 1 month, you won't even want to be near a cigarette, believe me. 54 -- Posted by SweeterThanChocolate at 9:04 am on Oct. 23, 2008 Well done on cutting back.  It's not easy, and you do miss having them, but after a while, you do get used to it, like JohnCena54 says.  After a while, you won't even like being around smoke.  Put the £2-£3 a day into a pot, and at the end of the week, go spend the £21 on something special -- Posted by Jadien at 10:31 am on Oct. 23, 2008 Cutting down is definitely the key. It's so hard, I know. Maybe you should consider trying to use the chewing gum or going on the pack? Keep a bag of cherrios with you, or carrot sticks so that you can keep putting something to your mouth. It'll help.
