I smoked for over 30 years...2 and half packs a day for the last 2 years, I've been smoke free for a little over 2 and half months...this is my second attempt at quiting the first time about 2 years ago I made it 2 weeks and gave in, thought I could have just 1 Any how the way I quit was, I got some nicotine gum and read the directions...then I said fuck the directions (they would have had me so pumped full of nicotine it would not have been funny) Soooo I only took a piece of gum when I really needed it...at first about a piece every 4 or 5 hours...after about 2 weeks I would have about 1 piece a day just to take the edge off and now I take 1 every once and awhile mainly when I drink because I still get a little weak and want a smoke when I drink ...but the biggest thing with quiting is you have to really want to quit and stick with it I know I can't have just 1 or I'll be smokeing like a mother fucker again...The bottom line is YOU HAVE TO WANT TO QUIT what works for me might not work for you. Just don't give in when you feel like having a smoke and tell yourself I DON'T SMOKE ANYMORE. Also it helps me to remember that it took me 30 years to get this fucked up and it isn't going to fix it self over night it takes along time to get over smoking and you won't feel better right away (you will feel worse for awhile do a google search for nicotine withdrawl so you know what to expect)...but IT IS WORTH IT....GOOD LUCK
