There are two things to break, the addiction and the habit.
I used the patch to deal with beating the cravings and gradualy lowering the nicotine in my body. This leaves you free to not stress and work on geting rid of that 'hand to mouth' habbit. Find something to do with your hands.
Avoid the 'triggers' that make you want to smoke.
Take some walks daily and enjoy the feeling of the air in your lungs, you will quickly notice the diference in lung capacity, you can soon walk further & faster without becoming short of breath.
Find a reason to HATE smoking, this isnt hard so just pick one and bring it up everytime you feel like a smoke.
Find yourself a class that does, yoga, chi gung, meditation or whatever takes your fancy. You will learn some valuable relaxation and breathing techniques to deal with any stress.
This all worked for me and its been 18months.
Its worth it - keep it up
