Its never too late, The great thing about stopping smoking is that the evil nicoteen, leaves your system after 72 hours,with very minor symptoms.
From then on it is will power
i gave up after 20 years, it really is not that hard, after two weeks it gets better, and you think less about it.
you will feel better for it, and feel good about yourself.

It is never too late. A lot of damage has already been done, but why do even more. Also you will taste your food better and not smell of smoke every time you are by someone. Your breath will be better and your hair won't be full of Nicotine any more. And, most of all you should feel much better at the end of the day.

Not to late, allthough your longues need 50 years to heal completely. If you want advise quitting smoking, i'd suggest slowly building it of, start running (takes away the need for a cig) and maybe consult a doctor

I'll tell you the easiest way...... My doctor told me this secret and it works! Quitting "cold turkey" is cruel to your body, after years of smoking you'll go through withdrawals. This process takes 20 days, but it works and will wean you off cigaretts completely! The first day, start with 20 cigs. The second day start with 19 (throw one cig away) The third day, 18 cigs (throw 2 cigs away) Continue this process until you are on your last day and only have 1 cig. left. The next day you'll have none to smoke. Actually I was down to having 3 cigs left and didn't want to smoke anymore! My doctor was a life saver! I hope I helped! I'll be thinking about you! Good luck!

try the patch. It really works. You forget to smoke, especially when you are busy.
those pills work, and you can smoke until you don't feel like smoking anymore
the first three weeks is very hard.
but whatever you do, don't even have one. a craving lasts maybe three minutes. Deep breathing, being busy, cold water or hot tea helps it go away.
remember, you have one smoke and you're back smoking...the key is to not have that one smoke
you will still have cravings, or just really want a smoke for years after...stay strong and you can do it.

not too late, border line, but still ok to quit, you caught it just in time
you need something to replace it with, like candy or something else
think about how you will probably get cancer and die if you don't, maybe that will help

ive started and quit many times. i'm 24 years old and have been smoking like a crackhead since age 13. i havent had a puff in 8 months and have no desire to. i've done it several different ways. the actual physical withdrawal symptoms are going to be gone in 3 days so you can go cold turkey and know that after 72 hours all the physical desire will be gone since you last had a puff. the Nicotine patches are going to make it worse when you take them off and cold turkey or just cutting down is a much better option than those. spend alot of this time taking hot showers and sleeping or eating good food etc i would recommend cutting down to like 5 cigs a day for three days. then 2 cigs a day for 2 days. then just quit. i personally gave my life over to God and just stopped smoking altogether and replaced with more of Him. hes the only thing thats gonna really satisfy you anyway. i actually quit smoking and lost weight. GL and get it done because dying from cancer/emphysema or talking out of one of those electronic things doesnt sound/look like much fun. i was really hooked and smoked for years also people used to make fun of how hard i sucked on the thing and inhaled it and how my cig would be gone 3 times faster than theirs. you just gotta have God change your heart. go cold turkey or cut down then cold turkey it. also dont hang around people who smoke and dont drink. or youll go back to it.

Here's how I quit smoking after 30 years. I may work for you too.
I figured that it would be easier for me to get rid of the Nicotine first and then deal with the behavior second, so I bought Quest cigarettes. I had to get them online because they don't sell them here in Texas. They have 3 strengths of Nicotine from 6 mg, then 3 mg then .05 mg of Nicotine which are considered Nicotine-free. Since what I was smoking was already lower than 6 mg, I started with Quest 2 at 3 mg. I smoked 3 cartons of them, then 3 cartons of Quest 3 at .05 mg.
What it did was fool my body, because I smoked normally as I was removing the Nicotine from my system by simply not putting it back in. My body knew something was up but it couldn't complain or give me cravings or irritability or anything because I was still smoking.
Next, I bought herbal cigarettes, smokin' joe was the brand. No tobacco or Nicotine at all. They tasted awful, but satisfied my need to smoke as the last vestiges of Nicotine were removed. Again, my body didn't complain because I was smoking. Every time I would light up, my body would expect a 'real' cigarette, but just got the herbal one.
I figured that after a short time, I would realize that I hadn't been really smoking anyway and so, I could just stop. And, sure enough after about 14 packs of the herbal cigarettes, I realized that the only reason I was still smoking them was because they were there in the house. I tossed the rest of them and that was that. No withdrawal, no irritability, no craving.
One thing I found curious though, is that it doesn't bother me to be around others who are smoking. I thought it would make me want to smoke, but it hasn't. On the contrary, it's like I get to smoke a little because of the secondhand smoke. In all, my process took about 6 weeks and of course, all of that time gets you used to the idea of not smoking, soon.
That was back in 2003 and I'm still smoke free. I never think of lighting up anymore. One thing, though, at a year and a half after quitting, a strong pull to start again occured out of the blue. I did not smoke again, but a friend who quit at the same time did and is still smoking today. So beware of the year and a half devil.
Also, when you smoke, you don't realize how you smell to those who don't. When you quit, you'll notice how those who smoke reek of it, just by walking by them. That's one reason I'll never take it up again. I'll never smell like that again.
