This, and it fucking sucks but so worth the misery.
Get a woman who will beat that ass if you smoke.
i was a half-a-pack-a-day smoker for 3 years straight; i started because i was a stupid and stressed teenager like everyone else and i quit on the 30th of september (2016)
haven't touched one since.
listen, cold turkey is the only true way to quit. drug abuse is a ratio of pleasure and pain. if you don't give back to the drug (nicotine) by going through the pain of withdrawing, you won't learn anything and you'll essentially just be lying to yourself. get in touch with your own intuition and observe how your mind and body react to things. don't rush it, you'll know when it's really time to stop.

Already gave you the answer.
Tried pills, gum, patches, cutting back slowly.
It all failed for me and it's not a week or two you will want a smoke, it's months before your body is back to normal and I mean months of near suicidal depression. Cardio and self hatred was the key for me.
Once you are free you will be proud of it. So will all the smokers you meet who know you had the strength to quit, because you did something they failed at.
Go volunteer at a hospice to get an idea of where you'll be in 25-30 years.

Step 1: dont buy smokes
>>40693238
You just dont smoke anymore.. I smoked for 7 years smoked the last cigarette in a pack and just didn't buy anymore cause it fucks with your gains... I either am a superhuman not effected by nicotine or everyone who says its hard to quit is a giant mentally weak pussy.. but it really was not a problem. Only noticeable side-effect i had was 3 or 4 days of irritability and anger.

Same, I also dropped amphetamines the same way. I suppose it's like a sliding scale. Once you've had it worse you tend to find it easier to do the latter.
How do I stop drinking
>>40693238
keep trying to quit until trying annoys you and you just do.

I started using Snus and I quit. It's been 6 years now. I did trade one habit for another, but fuck it. It's pretty mild, spit-free and there's far fewer health risks associated with Snus than other oral tobacco.
buy a ginger rhizome, put it on your pocket, everytime you feel the urge to smoke you bite it

Fuck, this hits home. I used the snus jew to quit as well but I really like it, more than than smoking or dipping grizzly. It's been 8 years since I started using and it's an indispensable part of my nighttime ritual.
