My time to quit smoking any tips on that so i can tell my friend? -
Switch to lights. Keep cutting down quantity until you forget to carry a pack in your pocket. Now you have quit. It took me about 4 years. Others I had advised took a year. Depends on your commitment.
This will sound strange but it helped me stop cold turkey from a 2 1/2 pack a day. (back when they were still cheep) I took a large ash tray and had everyone use just that one, I let it get dirty. I called it quits. Every time I wanted a smoke I would take the ashtray and add a small amount of water in it, take my finger and smear it around to a pasted. I would smell it for about 5 min. (it stinks bad) put the ash tray away smell the Stinky finger again and wash my hands. It worked I quit in 1987 and still don-t smoke.
