But, you must do it COLD TURKEY...
You should stay away from anyone who smokes; lock yourself in somewhere!
Keep yourself busy with some sort of online game, learn to touch type if you don-t know how or eat more if you-ve got a fast metabolism... Do something.
Just be completely by yourself or with a few people who don-t smoke for 1 week... just 1 week.

You-ll need to relearn how to calm/relax yourself.

it takes 28 days to establish a habit, and 28 days to break one....
the best way, is to throw them away, and quit....
next on the list...is figure out how many you smoke per day...
and smoke one less...
next week one less than that.....
Seen the smoking ads, the best thing to do is go to your GP/doctor and they-ll help guide you from there.
it might not be the cheapest way, but its probably the only way that will acctualy give you results.
You can go to your doctor and they can give you advice and stuff you need to quit.
I would recommend nicotine patches and a stress ball.
I don-t know. My dad only quit smoking after getting lung cancer and laryngeal cancer (lung cancer 2x). He quit cold turkey, but started eating a lot afterward. I think it-s kind of an oral fixation thing to an extent. You could try the nicotine gum or patch, but I know they-re kind of pricey. There-s also the pill you can take, which has a support group, I believe. My dad tried hypnosis also, but it didn-t help at all. Mostly a waste of money. If you feel like you need to put something in your mouth, you could try a lollipop/sucker or gum or something like that instead, see if that helps at all. It-s definitely a chemical addiction, but the longer you go without a cigarette the better. Try to cut down the amount you smoke a little at a time, and eventually, maybe you can find yourself smoking a lot less, and then nothing at all.
