My friend Steve made cinnamon toothpicks and that helped him kick. I used a few and kept some in my car when I quit, but eventually I too just had to "white knuckle it" and go cold turkey it took me over ayear to totally quit! It was the toughest thing I ever did but I'm SO GLAD I did kick it.
Even after 14 years, I still want to smoke esp. when I've been out with several smokers and we have a few drinks. The few times I've bummed a smoke, it didn't taste very good and I knew I wasn't going to go buy a pack and start again. I hated coming home and stinking after so many years of smelling good. Plus I do know too many people who have died from lung cancer. They always said it wouldn't kill them, but it did - and they died smelling dreadful and looking gray and so sick that they knew it was too late and they had regrets and said so.
Plus cigs are so expensive & in truth, I'd rather spend the money on nice perfumes and clothes. Not something that'll kill me.
