It looks like I'm going to have to try to quit smoking again. I'm 24 and I've smoked since I was 18. I smoke about 10-15 cigarettes a day and cigarettes have caused me to lie to my wife, who I love very much, about quitting -- multiple times.
Every time I've intended to quit and every time I've failed in a matter of weeks. I'm not a very strong person. I don't have a lot of willpower, and I can really only blame myself for this, I know. But that doesn't make it any easier.
I've tried gum, patches and cold turkey. All I can think about when I'm not smoking is going to a store and buying a pack. I'm a nervous person and all my co-workers smoke, which makes it worse.
Things I'm not willing to try are "alternative" methods such as hypnosis and herbal treatments. I also don't have time or money for therapy or support groups. More than likely, I'm going to try cold turkey again, so how can I make it stick this time?
