Have you done it? What worked for you? I keep telling myself I'm gonna quit & don't.

No, because I don't smoke and I don't want to suffer any disadvantage to my health. For me, and searching about it and knowing the physical effect of smoking. And smoking is a very dangerous to our health specially to our lung. And if we are new to smoking, we didn't notice the effect of smoking to our body and if the times come, and it is notice that our body is polluted of what we called a nicotine and even we have a cancer to lung. Maybe smoking have some benefit but mostly there are some disadvantage in our health.

I have no tips for you. The patch did not work for me, the gum did not work, price, pills, etc...you get the picture. I guess when I have had enough, I will know and I will quit.

I know it probably sounds really obvious, but you can't allow yourself to ever have 'just one puff' - it never works that way. Every time I quit it would start with the odd little drag from a friend on a night out and would progress to me smoking whenever I was socialising and sent me straight back to being a smoker again! When I finally quit it became a matter of pride in the fact that I haven't even had a drag of a ciagarette in the past 'x' amount of time that made me not want to break my record. Currently around 18 months under the belt, woohoo!
