Help, I'm suffering from tobacco addiction, I can't help but smoke the hookah at social events and when I'm alone.
I'm smoking as I'm typing this right now, I left Internet addiction and I'm free of any form of addiction except for tobacco, how do I stop smoking, I know it's silly to seek help here but I've tried my best :(. The harder I try the harder I stumble.
It is the guilt which kills me, the guilt for ruining the body made by God. I can't bear this guilt anymore.

Ask God to help you and forgive you and stop judging yourself, you're not in a position to judge, not even yourself. If you have a setback, don't have an opinion about it, just pray to God for help again. Over time you'll let it go without even really trying.
God bless.

I've never had an addiction so I don't know how it feels, but if it's something that feels absolutely uncontrollable, try praying to Jesus Christ every time you feel the urge to smoke,
Galatians 5:1 "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery."
Jesus didn't just free us from sin, he freed us from any form of slavery, including addiction. You have been redeemed with the Blood of Jesus Christ and as you keep thinking that in your prayers I'm sure Jesus will help you. You belong to Jesus, not to tobacco. I'll try to remember you in my prayers

Hi OP, I’ve tried to quit many times. I too always fail, but I have learned some things. The first is you just have to quit. I know that sounds obvious but the only word that needs to be said to tobacco is “no”. Cold turkey is imo the best way to quit, but some people find it easier to slowly stop themselves over time. If you decide to go cold turkey, don’t kiss your last one goodbye, you don’t want to leave any room to miss it. You have to learn to hate smoking. I’ve come to drink a lot more coffee when I go without, it’s better than replacing the addiction with chocolate bars and ice cream. I advise you not to replace it with any vapor products either. The whole idea is just to flip the switch and call it. Yes it is almost impossibly hard but that’s what we get. The first week is the hardest and it gets easier and easier. Just know you are addicted for life. Flip the switch and just quit. If you keep doing this you’ll learn how to cope with the withdrawals and find those little kinks that work. But a bag of dumdums and some toothepicks, I’ll pray for you. Let’s try to kick it before the new year.

I would like to add that you cannot beat yourself up when you fail. This is very important. All that matters is you continue to try quitting. Failing is an organic part of the addiction and recovery and it’s best to accept that instead of getting suckered in self defeat and then despair. God loves a valiant heart so don’t give up.
