People who smoke are addicted to the mental "high" they get from it. If you can break that psychological addiction, you can stop smoking - this is often used as a crutch by people who never wanted to stop smoking in the first place - "I can't, it's too difficult", "I can stop any time I like"...
A lot of girls smoke because it's an appetite suppressant and will help keep them slim - a ploy both anorexics and models use to their advantage. The reason that most people put on weight after stopping is because they need something to do with their hands and mouth, and eating fills that void - as well as the appetite returning.
Trust me, I know what I'm talking about - six years ago, I was on 80 a day and on April 11th, 2000, I stopped and haven't had one since. It's one of the best things I've ever done.

I quit 4 months ago so it can be done. I smoked 20 a day for 25 years but I've got no intention of starting again. The first week of quitting was the worst - I had horrendous insomnia. I didn't like the premature wrinkles and receding gums I was starting to get. I didn't stop for health reasons, purely for vanity. I read the Allen Carr book and I found that helped a lot. I never thought a self-help book would do any good, but I was proved wrong.

Smoking is an addiction... just like drugs and alcohol. I wish I could quit... but I doubt that I ever will, even knowing the results.

I gave up smoking for seven months and started again at my mums funeral. She died off lung cancer. How stupid is that?? Three years on and I'm still smoking.
