My method was simpler. I used gum, the weakest type, and every time I wanted a cig I chewed a new piece of gum for 10 seconds then spat it out. Figured it'd be like the first draw on a ciggie, the one you feel good for.

Did that whenever I thought I was going to fold and have a cig. maybe, 3 times a day at the start going down to once a week after a month.

Now, just plain don't smoke.

Stay away from booze if you plan on stopping, cos you'll start again when you drink.

My boss went under earlier this year. She had four sessions in the end and has never looked back!!! Now she cannot even stand the smell of cigarette smoke. She recommends it to anyone trying to give up but make sure you check out the person or try to get a recommendation from someone.
