Alan Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking <-- excellent book. I've been a non-smoker for 3 years now!

There is no easy way. I went cold turkey. First it takes a conscious decision. Then you have to get rid of reminders of smoking. Out go the ash trays, the matches, the lighters, and the cigarettes. Then you have to not hang around people who smoke. That will help a lot. Try chewing gum. Good luck.

have your last cigarette in the evening before you go to bed. when you wake up in the a.m., you will already have been smoke free for 8 hours! keep that in your mind to help you from lighting one up in the morning. STAY BUSY.....go for a walk, check the mail, go shopping, just stay as busy as possible the first week. this definately helps. keep chewing gum on hand for those tough moments. find a "quitting" buddy to call and talk to that first 2 weeks. I did all of the above and am happy to say i've been smoke free for almost 8 weeks.

Take a week off. Get a box of nicorett, lay in bed and watch TV. The urge will get a little less as time passes. I had it under control after the second or third day

If there was an "easy" way to quit smoking, the world wouldn't be having this problem with us smokers, now would it?

Use Nicotine gum like Nicorette (I think that's the name). But be sure to follow prescription and not eat beyond the recommended daily dosage.

eat a whole onion when you feel the urge to smoke... yes, it's quite radical, but it's efficient
if this doesn't work, try the classic methods

Stop buying the d-mn things, and then you won't have any next time you want one.
