Self hypnosis worked for me. I convinced myself they tasted awful. Haven't had a cigarette since 1977.

My anniversary one year on 15th - have booked in for massage treat.
Tips on stopping, this is a good time of year to do, read about all the nasty toxins in cigarettes each time you are tempted to smoke again, drink water with a squeeze of lemon each time you are tempted and get loads of oranges to suck on and take plenty of walks in the good clean air.
I stopped because I now have emphysema and the consultant told me that every cigarette I continue to smoke will damage my lungs even more. At that time I only had 50% lung function - it is quite a miracle I now have about 75 - 80% again. Will be on medication for rest of my life probably and have to be more vigilant about health. But hey you can stop before you develop COPD or emphysema.
Good Luck to any one who tries to stop and Good Luck to anyone who continues.

thanks for reminding about my habit... i will not stop tomorrow. i do have plans but my husband is smoker is well so it is tricky one: we have to do it together. I did stop without much hassle and didn't smoke for 1year and a half (i was pregnant with my child, brestfeeding ext.) I really sorry that I do smoke again. But at another side: i came back from size 16 to 10. Sometimes it is the most important for me: if I give up smoking I must change all my wardrobe

No, I'm not going to stop just because the government tell me to. They don't buy my smokes, just charge a fortune in tax on them. I know smoking is bad for you, but a packet of cigs has comforted me on many a bad day. Time for another...

Why don't people let others smoke in peace..I hope they all smoke 10 times more than normal to make the point

i gave up two and a half years ago. my top tip is to just do it cold turkey all these gums and patches are a waste of time. determination is something you can't buy unfortunately. Good luck!! XX
