I’m 16 and I’ve been smoking since I was 14.
It started off socially, like once a week but its only in the last year that its become a real habit.
I smoke around five a day, more if I’m with my friends.
I really want to stop, I know its difficult but it can be done.
I just want to know, is it too late or can my lungs slowly recover?

I also started smoking socially and quickly found I was becoming more and more ’social’ even when by myself! I gave up smoking on 2nd July having smoked 20-30 a day for 15 years. After 5 and a bit weeks I feel so much better already. You will probably find that you cough a bit for the first couple of weeks -my breathing had never been worse! however, my lungs now feel so much better than they did when I smoked. and if you look at the timeline that someone else has posted here, you will see that in time your lungs will repair themselves completely. you can do it!

what is helping me is (a) I am using nicotine patches. i am not sure whether they really do anything or whether it is psychological but on the rare occasion that I fancy a cigarette I rub the patch! (b) find another addiction. Preferably not something else harmful though! I took up karate and kickboxing and while I couldn’t breathe at all even in the warmup when I started, I am now completely addicted, train 15-20 hours a week and want to get superfit asap so really have no desire to mess it up by smoking.
So go for it!

I made this video to hopefully help people that are trying to quit smoking. I smoked cigarettes for 13 years and tried everything to quit and just couldn’t do it until I found 2 different programs on the net that actually worked. The best one of the two is the Lung Detox program, It really is the only one you need! It gives all the tools you need to quit the easy way!

You can and will quit smoking for good. I have been a non-smoker for almost two years now and never even have any cravings. I used to smoke 2 packs a day. I feel like this program saved my life. It is also very inexpensive. Please check it out, you have a 60 DAY 100% money back guarantee…. but believe me this program works!!

I tried many ways for years to quit, once quiting for a year, and again for three months. I kept wishing I didn’t like to smoke so much.

What finally worked for me was when I realized that I don’t really "like" to smoke. That feeling was just the chemical addiction forcing my body to want more. After I realized what was in control, it didn’t exactly get easier, but it hardened my resolve. Anytime I slipped, I tried to get right back to it. Once I knew that cigarettes to me was like booze to an alcoholic, I was able to quit. I didn’t want those cigarette companies using their chemicals to take advantage of me.

Any trick I could use to help I used. One of my favorites was to carry a toothbrush and toothpaste and to brush when I got that weird feeling in my gums.

I was determined and did not let down my guard. That was eighteen years ago and the smell of smoke finally annoys me.

It has been over one year since my last cigarette and I have never been tempted to look back. I really hope this simple advice has helped someone else.
