Many smokers have successfully given up cigarettes by replacing them with new habits, without quitting -cold turkey,- planning a special program, or seeking professional help.
The following approaches include many of those most popular with ex-smokers. Remember that successful methods are as different as the people who use them. What may seem silly to others may be just what you need to quit - so don-t be embarrassed to try something new. These methods can make your own personal efforts a little easier.
Pick the ideas that make sense to you. And then follow through - you-ll have a much better chance of success.
PREPARING YOURSELF FOR QUITTING...
.Decide positively that you want to quit. Try to avoid negative thoughts about how difficult it might be.
.List all the reasons you want to quit. Every night before going to bed, repeat one of the reasons 10 times.
.Develop strong personal reasons in addition to your health and obligations to others. For example, think of all the time you waste taking cigarette breaks, rushing out to buy a pack, hunting for a light, etc.
.Begin to condition yourself physically: Start a modest exercise program; drink more fluids; get plenty of rest; and avoid fatigue.
.Set a target date for quitting - perhaps a special day such as your birthday, your anniversary, or the Great American Smokeout. If you smoke heavily at work, quit during your vacation so that you-re already committed to quitting when you return. Make the date sacred, and don-t let anything change it. This will make it easy for you to keep track of the day you became a nonsmoker and to celebrate that date every year.

Don-t buy champix or chantix. I started feeling weird the day I started it, three days later I attempted suicide out of the blue. Stay very very far away from this drug. Google chantix and suicide or go to the fda website. It is under investigation for suicide link since Nov. 20th and they have received over 5000 complaints already. Please Please do NOT take this drug!!!!!!!!
Stop buying cigarettes.
Cut your hands. :D
Was kidding.
Anyway, maybe you should start from reducing the amount of cigarettes you smoke per day. I think it might be impossible to go from 10 cigarettes to 0 per day.
Perhaps a search for -quit smoking- + -natural ways- might be of interest.
