I quit, "I hope", for the last time, "cold turkey" about 10 or so years ago, patches & gum don't work for me... I smoked cigs maybe 3 or so pack a week {Marlboro's} & stogies probably 5 a day {Swisher Sweets & high end Rothschild's too}, I still have craving every once in a while, especially for a good stogie, it's not an easy thing to do, to quit... it's just really breaking/changing the string of ingrained repetitious bad habits, more than the tobacco to me... You need to "stay strong", you will be much better off, in the long run... Just think food taste better, beer taste better, you will breath better, you will be healthier, you will not smell like an ashtray anymore, you will save allot of time & money too, not having to run to the damn store &/or take a damn smoke break, you might even live longer.... good luck keep up the good work...

I was a chewer, about a can every 3 days of Kodiak &/or Skoal since HS, long before I was a smoker, that was even harder to stop IMHFO... started just because of bad decisions, while young not worrying about the long term issues/consequences... It's well worth the suffering to get healthy, not have the disgusting tobacco habits any longer...
