I'm more of a social gal myself, and should therefore probably quit.Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

Good luck!
I gave up six years ago by going cold turkey. It's not easy, but it is worth it. You will not be pleasant to be around for a few weeks though, so good luck to your friends and family too!Comment

The trick I found was willpower, which is a fancy way of saying that every thime you are about to have a cigarette, choose not to. It's really very simple and easy. They are your arms so don't extend them to take a cigarette and don't buy any either.Comment

I gave up after 30 yrs of 20/day using that book. Didn't find it anything like as hard as expected.
