    It's all will power will power will power, and finding something to keep your mind of the thought of "Geezz I need a smoke", have someone help you through this, every-time you start craving that adult pacifier say a control word, then that some one can hit you with something.

    Good luck, and if you really get desperate for that smoke post a few photos around of someones lungs after they got all eaten up, it may sound gross but it works.

    Good luck BBB.... I did it about 4-5 years ago... Something that really helped was E-cigarettes... No gums or patches worked for me.. But as mostly everyone has mentioned. Will power and you wanting to do it...As unfortunately only you can do it.......

    I hope you can quit. if you do you will feel ten years younger. I quit 3 years ago, but only because my appendix blew up and I spent 11 days in the hospital.

    I hope you are doing ok bbb
    Fight it all the way and never give up
    I never even tried it and I am so glad lol


    You're always better off if you quit smoking; it's never too late.

    The true face of smoking is disease, death and horror
    - not the glamour and sophistication the pushers in the tobacco industry try to portray.

    I recently quit after 50 years of 2.5 packs. I tried cold turkey a number of times and could never do it longer than a few days so I quit quitting. This time I realized the habit was more problematic than the nicotine addiction so I went to work on that. So I started day one by only smoking one cigarette every hour. That way I didn't have the agony of thinking no more cigarettes and worked on the urge to reach for the pack all the time without even thinking while lowering my nicotine consumption. When I smoked, I went to a different place and held the cigarette like a joint, not the normal comfortable way. Sort of like taking medicine. Day 2 was every 2 hours, day 3 every 3 hours and so on. It helped having a strict regimen of sticking to the exact time to smoke whether I could withhold or not. No earlier, no later - no decisions. By day 10 it was only 2 per day and I left them for good. That was six months ago. I still have urges to smoke and don't mind people around me smoking. I like the smell but I keep telling myself - one and I'm done. Don't want to go through that again.

    I also found that when you have a strong urge to smoke it helps taking a deep breath and holding it as long as you can. Best of luck.

    you know the biggest thing I've found so far is what to do with the fingers , sounds odd but after so many years of smoking you always have a smoke between your fingers. I found working around the house or on something helps.
