When I play a patient and relaxed game I win - that simple.

Picking a quit date to gear up for quitting helped me a lot too. I talked about my plans to quit with friends for support as the date got closer. I also had several substitute strategies on paper that i read regularly to divert my attention when faced with cravings. (go for a walk, do sit ups, push ups, drink water, chew gum, etc...)

I just wanna say that Pok 7s has upped the stakes for the best avatar...thanks to tetsuo. :)

Also, I just started smoking on a semi-regular basis a couple months ago...sigh. Here's to me in 20 years still smoking. ;-)-u

Cold turkey is the way to go. That is the way I did it, and unlike most people, I replaced my smoking with drinking. I drank constantly for about three months. Now my drinking has leveled off and I have been smoke free for nearly six months. You just have to REALLY REALLY WANT TO QUIT. Cold turkey is the way to go.

My luck is so bad that if I bought a cemetery, people
