  1. Switch to an electronic cigarette and possibly use that to wean off of nicotine while maintaining the oral and hand to mouth part of the addiction as you deal with the chemical addiction on your own terms.

    That’s my plan and its been working for going on 5 months now. =)
    Smoked for over 30 years and after a fairly short learning curve, I just preferred the electronic cig over real tobacco cigs. Finished the cigs I had in the house while learning and then just never bought any more cigarettes.

    If it sounds like you might like to try it – I would recommend learning about e-cigs first so that you pick the right one for you and your habits. Check out vids on you tube and read some forums that aren’t brand sponsored so you get unbiased info and not sales pitches.
    Forums I like to use are
    Vapersforum.com
    Nu-vapor.com

    Good Luck

    **edit – and I would NEVER recommend anyone go on Chantix unless you’ve done some research on the dangers of suicide while using this drug AND AFTER.
    If you want to die, then just keep smoking and at least go happy.

  2. You can get a prescription for chantix. Its about $100 per month, but you probably spend that in cigarettes anyway. My dad was on this and it worked really well.

  3. Think about what you’ll look like in ten years. Multiply that by ten. Then think about how NASTY the stink is. Then think about what it does to your teeth, your hands, your lungs. Good for you for wanting to quit. I always looked at the negatives and tried to make them worse than they were. That worked for me.. Not to mention the rece$$ion. Do whatever you got to do and good luck!! Keep at it!

  4. dont do it alone.. joining a support groups greatly increases your chances of quitting!!!
