            Cold turkey. I recommend you workout or something too. It'll take your mind off of smoking. Ive had about 5 failed attempts the last 2 years but have been 100% nicotine free for the last 3 months. I feel great

                  I have never smoked a cigarette in my entire life. Never even came close. I have done just about every drug there is though. Never had the desire to smoke though.

                    I don't recommend the patches, gum and lozenges. They only get you addicted to them. Cold turkey is the way.

                          I want to quit smoking too! It's tough. I quit drinking, not had a drink in 6 months, but smoking is harder. Especially when you're gambling.

                          My dad quit cold turkey, I've always heard that's the easiest way. If you can't start by buying cigarettes you can't stand. They'll give you the nicotine you need & the repetitive habit of doing it, but the desire to do it will go way down. I suggest Viceroy. Smoked a pack one time & I wouldn't smoke one now if I was out. They taste like ass

                                I quit smoking cigs on October 29th and did it cold turkey as well. As far as green goes I smoke about a bowl a day.

                                  Beetle Juice came to one of buddy's parties several years ago. The little guy is a fukkin' riot.

                                  You can actually hire him to come and hang out!

                                            I struggled for a long time to quit, what worked for me was cutting down. Having a half a smoke instead of a full. When I got down to smoking 5 times a day I was able to stop, though had a small cigar around as a back-up. The `erbs I had to quit as I am subject to random tests.

                                              find support from others that have stopped, and have a good amount of clean time. people like that will be glad to help you if you want to stop and its not overnight results, it will be difficult and takes a lot of work. Good luck, God bless!

                                                With that $700 a month at age 23, even it was invested very, very conservatively, you're looking at a buttload of dough that you could have at age 40.

                                                  I have "quit" to the point that I only have a cig or two when I am having a beer and cooking out on the grill. Once you get off the cigs here and there, you will see an obvious improvement in the way you feel.

                                                              I smoked a pack a day at $8.17 a pack... once i figured that for everyday for an entire year it was about $3k... that made me sick to be honest- i could have had some loans paid off... I started using the patch and for the $$ i saved each week from not buying smokes i treated myself to some serious online shopping & some other things as a reward. gotta want to do it to quit. I did for about a month- then started up again, but not smoking nearly as much as i did before.
