What is the most effective way to quit smoking? -
There are a few differnt effective ways, you have to find the one that works for you.
There is:
Cold Turkey
Gradual slow down
Chewing gum in place of smoking
Wearing a rubber band and snapping yourself when you want to smoke.
Chantix - Prescription to stop smoking
Nicotine Patch
Hypnosis
I-m sure there are a lot others but those are the most used.
Good Luck! It-s not easy.
I used a product called -Wellbutrin-. It is used to elavate one-s mood. I took it for 2 weeks and it killed the nicotine craving. I haven-t smoked since (8 years now).
A prescription is needed to obtain it.

There is no -best way,- as different methods work for different people.
When I quit smoking (the second time), I
a) used the patch.
b) made cigarette analogs. I took an unused cigarette filter, pushed it into a straw, and cut the straw to mimic the lenth of a cigarette. I made several of these.
Whenever I got the urge to smoke, I would take one of my fake cigarettes, hold it like I would a real cig, and took drags off of it as I would a real cig. The patch took care of the nicotine, the straw/cig helped me to FEEL like I was smoking. Eventually, I was able to need it less and less. It looked sort of funny to be driving along hanging a red, yellow, and white straw out the window and flicking imaginary ash off the end of it.
I do not know if it will work for you, but the straw method is realatively cheap to try. It heally does help to have the patch at the same time, however.
