SOME TIPS FOR SMOKERS
I have been smoking since I was 15.
At first I smoked 1 pack of rolling tobacco a week, but this quickly increased to 2 packs a week, which I have used for all the years since.
I have tried countless things to quit smoking; also special preparations prescribed by a doctor, but one of these almost cost me my life, as I woke up not being able to breathe - I had a hyperallergic reaction.
Several people have died from this preparation.
None of the tips have helped, so I had to come up with something myself, but what ?
First of all I had to make a log of my consumption, and I saw that my consumption was about 1 cigarette every hour.
So I set a goal to limit this to 1 cigarette every 2 hours.
To make this easier, I ate a meal every 2 hours.
Secondly, my asthma medication consumption was twice as high as recommended; one inhalation every 2 hours.
This should be done with at least 4 hours between each inhalation.
I have now been running this project for 1 month, and have already reduced my tobacco consumption by 50%, and my asthma medication by even more.
I also found that I could make use of tobacco waste by mixing it into new tobacco, which made a pack last more than an extra day.
My breathing has already improved drastically, and I plan to reduce my consumption even further.

Leaving school my first job was working in Players Cigarette Factory UK.
My job was to sprinkle all the Dust Offel swept up from the leaf cutting machines back into the tobacco as it was machined into cigarettes.
This stopped me from starting wanting to smoke.

My Smoking Reduction System Works
I have now been using this system for 2 months, and have more than halved my asthma medication and reduced my tobacco consumption by about 66%.
Tobacco used to cost me €300 a month, while it now only costs me €100.
I follow a plan, where tobacco consumption is controlled by increasing the time interval between each cigarette from 2 hours to 2.5, and 3 hours as it is now.
The interval will be increased to 3.5 and 4 hours in a little while.
Then the interval between each medicine dose will be increased from 4 hours to 4.5 hours, and each cigarette will be connected to the intake of medicine.
If possible, the interval will be increased further.

Well done Chello, it isn't easy but as you are feeling the real bonus of it hopefully you will continue to decrease the habit.
