I quit smoking a month ago now using this method. I have tried to quit many times before but always felt as if I was depriving myself. I can't stress enough how much your videos have helped me see smoking in a completely different way! I have quit for good now. I had a very stressful day and didn't once thing about reaching out for a cigarette! I don't miss it at all. Thank you for sharing your content! You are changing people's lives!

[@CBQMethod]

Kimmerey, that's fantastic!! Congratulations on your success and for conquering stress as a non-smoker! I'm so glad the videos and the CBQ helped you on your journey. Quick ask, may I share your comment on our success page? Because I'd love for more people who apply the CBQ by themselves to share their experience- (you can also share what's on your mind if you prefer) Let me know if that's okay :) This is the CBQ Method success page: cbqmethod.com/success-stories/

The physical addiction continues until the nicotine receptors in the brain start to 'snooze', which takes between 6 weeks to 3 months without nicotine. That's why the cravings continue after nicotine has left the body.

[@CBQMethod]

Shifting to a herbal joint is not a way to stop smoking because there's no strategy, process, or way to overcome the mental addiction when you do that. But you can definitely use that as a tool in conjunction with a plan to overcome the mental addiction. Essential oils are a great coping tool but won't take you all the way. Hope this helps.

Been 4 weeks since I had a cig/vape, went on nic replacement step 3 patch for a week, and been clean for 3 weeks no nicotine now!! It is admittedly difficult, as I'm 35, and I've been smoking since I was 17. I literally was changing the trash today and brushed against a fucking step 3 patch that was at the bottom of the trash in my bathroom as I was emptying it, so I just through the whole bag out, but it's getting in my head like "What if I absorbed nicotine?" that type of OCD shit. Any advice for that? I don't crave nicotine anymore, but I have noticed (and this is what's hard for me) that my mind feels lethargic, I have trouble socializing with people, and I even have some burning in my nerves, which is my CNS being overactive with anxiety. Those are just a few challenges I have noticed, but I'm not giving up. I threw my $100 mod out a week ago, to keep me motivated to keep on going!! I honestly have never done this well before with it.

[@CBQMethod]

Hi Munish, congratulations on being 5 months smoke-free! When you quit, you may experience changes in your bowel movements, including constipation or gas. It lasts 1-2 weeks. These symptoms will go away by themselves in time. If you overthink it, you might cause anxiety which could prolong constipation. Drinking 6-8 glasses of water every day, eating fruits, and exercising helps a lot. If it persists, ask your pharmacist for a natural aid that can help. If you're still experiencing these symptoms 5 months after quitting, then it may not be because of quitting smoking. We recommend talking to your doctor about it.

Suhail, the information we give in the video that cotinine leaves the body in about 3 weeks is correct. Please watch the full video so you can understand why. How fast your body metabolizes cotinine depends on how much you smoked, your nutrition, and other medications you may take. We have to give the most accurate number that accounts for most factors and not the number that will apply to some people. Thanks.
