    I had a co-worker, her and her husband did acupuncture treatment behind her ears and they quit cold turkey and didn't smoke for over 5 years. Maybe try that John.

    I got acupuncture that's how I quit after smoking for 23 years. My brother in law smoked 3-5 packs a day seriously, and he quit by getting acupuncture. That is why I tried it and it worked for me too.

    I have been smoking 2 packs a day for 16 years. Said I would never Quit. Woke up one morning and went to the pharmacy and bought the patch. Followed the directions and when that was done I did the nicotine gum. I went 7 months hapily smoke free and decided to have one for old times sake.... bought a pack the next day and I'm right back at it again..... Good inspiration here though.

    I'm a real dumb*&^ and smoke a pipe.
    Oh it's better, cheaper, no full cigarette comittment, one puff put it down,
    yeah right. how's about I just sign up for lip cancer....

    Seems like most addictions follow similar rules.
    Nicotine darn near has it's own neuroligic receptors in the brain.
    Harder to quit than heroine, they say.

    associate with pain? snap a rubber band on the wrist when craving?
    associate with pleasure? m and m's ?

    Get up in the morning, make coffee, light up?
    The behavior mods say change it up.
    Drink tea, have a snack and try to put it off for a minute, then 2.
    Never smoke inside....ANYthing, house, car etc.
    Pretty amazing how much of a reflex it becomes.
    Neighbor always said her truck wouldn't start without a cigarette.
    When Zappa was diagnosed, he stated that tobacco was a vegetable.


    Funny 'cause we all have times we can go for hours without.
    Blood levels seem to drop every 20 minutes, hence the maintenance dosages.

    isn't there some 'quitnow dot gov website or something?
    I just Love some of the foreign tobacco packages...
    full color pix of open heart surgery etc, but for some reason I really wanted to try one.

    wow
    Congrats to all who've ever tried, and those who won.
    To those who haven't started, you'll never have to quit.

    UPDATE:

    This Saturday will be 500 days since I have had a cigarette and about 14 months since I have put any nicotine into my body.
    I still get a craving about 1-2 times a day, but they aren't strong urges and they go away within a minute or two.
    Coming from someone who smoked hard core (entire pack of cigarettes between my front door and Haspin Acres, for example).....
    If I can quit, ANYONE can quit.

    By my calculations, I have saved about $3500 on cigs in that time. That would buy a pretty cherry three wheeler in this day and age.
