Quitting any habit, which u think is bad, has to come fm your inner self. You need strong determination and will force to stop smoking or anything like that. I hv personally stopped smoking on 30th Sept, 1990. No reducing, no ifs and buts, I just didnot smoke a small puff fm 1st October, till today. You must remember, that, you have to go through a phase of mental and habitual discomfort. But, if u want to stop, u have to stop, and thats the end of chapter. Period. Please give it a try once, and, I hope you can do this. Remember, the choice is yours.

I assume you've tried the usual. So have a look at your motives, When you don't smoke, you can eat strawberries and bananas, and that lovely taste stays with you, and if you kiss your lover, he will also taste strawberries and bananas..
Don't buy any cigarettes before you go out. Stop going to places where everybody smokes.
Procrastinate. I stopped that way. I figured I was lazy, so I'd take advantage of it. "Well, I won't light up right away. I'll just wait." And then one day I didn't really want them anymore.
I had an easy time of it. If that doesn't work for you, get Nicorrettes, and bust your way through that wall.,
Good luck. Nothing but good can come of it.

I smoked for 8 years and was sick of it too. The only thing that helped was hooking up with a hottie who would not see me if I was smoking.So I haven't smoked in a couple of weeks since I have been with her. But I promise you the day she dumps me I'm going to smoke 3 cartons.

Cold turkey is the best, because it sticks, but you would need counseling. Talk to your doctor there are therapeautic ways to deal with this also. If you live in OH they have a stop smoking program but you have to call them from an ohio phone so that they know that you are an ohioan.

Quiting smoking can be very heard. I smoked for 5 years, and quit after my baby was born and it was causing him ear infections. To Stop you really need to WANT to stop. Stay away from friends who smoke while you are trying to stop, or get your friends to stop with you. (As they say, misery loves company). Try putting the money you save on cigs into a special jar. You'll see how that money starts adding up. After being smoke free for 1 month, use that money to get yourself something special. Look online for smoking cessation sites.
Here is one to get you started (Actually a link of links)

If you find yourself just wanting to do the act of smoking itself, try buying natural herbal cigarettes. I know American Spirits has a brand that has like nine ingredients that are 100% natural and are tabacco and nicotine free. They won't give you any sort of buzz, but its kind of a mind trick.
Worked for me when I quit marijuana.

This is how I did it: I swore an oath to myself that I would absolutely never put another ciggie in my mouth and light it. That was over 20 years ago, and it was not too hard, because I promised myself. But, I do still enjoy second-hand smoke sometimes...

I have given up for a week now go to my profile and check out my smokers question, some people gave me some tips. I just said to myself that I want to quit, when I was smoking I hated it, I try to remember that.
its so hard when you are out, but just tell yourself how much you hate it, get your friends to support you.
set yourself a date and work up to it.
I have had bad cravings, when i get them I have eaten some fruit or drank water. or done some exercise or cleaning etc. every time you go to light up just remember how much you hate smoking, think about all health issues and its a wasted of money. My skin is looking so much better and I have only given up for 1 week now.
one gross thing my boyf done 4 me is fill a jar with fag buts and water, when I get a bad craving I have a sniff...YUK that soon makes me want to give up!
GOOD LUCK!!! you can do it!

you have to stay away from the places where you usually smoke, and stop hanging around other smokers for a while. Find other things to do where you dont have to smoke.
