Methods for Quitting Smoking

Lisa: This is it. I’m quitting smoking for good. 

Michael: Good for you. Are you going cold turkey? 

Lisa: No, I tried that, but it didn’t work. I craved1 cigarettes too much. 

Michael: How about nicotine2 gum? Have you tried that? 

Lisa: Yes, but I didn’t like the side effects. It irritated my throat. 

Michael: That’s too bad. I suppose you’ve tried nicotine patches, too? 

Lisa: Yes, I have. I became addicted3 to the patches and couldn’t wean myself off of them. I just traded one addiction4 for another. 

Michael: And electronic cigarettes? 

Lisa: They only made me want to smoke a real cigarette. They were no help at all. 

Michael: So, what now? 

Lisa: I’m going to try hypnosis. I hear that it works for some people. 

Michael: And if that doesn’t work? 

Lisa: The last resort is acupuncture5. Some people say that’s effective for quitting smoking. 

Michael: If you say so. Sometimes the cure is truly worse than the disease!
