Like i always say, if you're a christian put it into prayers, God will help you stop even the worst habit, trust me, i know what i'm talking about.

But know this dearie: quitting smoking is as difficult as quitting drugs. It wont be easy ooh but with the right motivation, its not impossible wink

if you're not a christian, then you might resolve to all these "quit moking gums" and "drops"
i think there's something in them, that are meant to replace the nicottin, so that after chewing or licking (depending on the remedy you choose), the urge for smoking quenches

i know of a lady that resolved to sniffing the scent when she felt like smoking, and it always saw her through,

some tend to gain a lot of weight after quitting because, each time they feel like smoking, they resolve to food.

But at the end of the day what helps you most is your determination. If you're totally motivated and determinined, you'll see that each time you pick upa cigarette, something inside you'll tell you not to even think about it.

I stopped the habit last year after 11 years. It sure wasnt easy, even now I fight off the temptations every now and then but its easier to do so now than when I had just quit. I must confess I got Gods help because I knew I couldnt get off it on my own, I loved tobacco smoking and was hooked.

But I was determined to rescue my life from the pits of smoke, I battled it on and off for 3 months before quitting finally. In the run-up to finally quitting I used to focus my thoughts strongly on the disadvantages of the habit (I still do if the thot crosses my mind)viz:

[list]
[li]It was gradually destroying my health[/li]
[li]It was draining my finances (think how much u spend smoking monthly, multiply by 12, then multiply by number of years u been smoking. . . its scary!)[/li]
[li]It was damaging my social appearance (esp the smell)[/li]
[li]The habit itself had trapped me[/li]
[li]With time it had limited my associations, most of my friends were smokers and I thot non-smokers were slackers![/li]
[/list]


and the advantages:

[list]
[li]NONE![/li]
[/list]

Rescue your life from the enslaving grip of tobacco smoking pal. . .
what are you waiting for?  smiley

Patches r very helpful.

in addition to the many advice given, i would say getting your self would help big time. no doubt the urge would come but you could try taking ur mind off by doing something that requires the use of that your mind. And believe me, you have a very good chance of stopping the habit cos you have discovered it as a problem. With time, the urge would go just be faithful and don't decieve your self. don't forget that with God all things are possible. Pray to him about it, i'm sure he would help you
