    GOOD LUCK. be careful about using smokeless tobacco, can be harder to kick then cigs.

    Mr. Done, what ever you do, don't start dipping Skoal!!!!! It's a nasty habit, and much, much ,much harder to quit, because it doesn't make you cough or wheeze. I am up to a can a day (at $2.00/can). I quit smoking and started dipping 32 years ago. Very few people I know have quit dipping. [:(][:(][:(][:(][:(][:(][:(][:(][:(]

    I quit cold turkey, almost 20 years ago. I've only had a cigar or two since. You can do it. It feels good to taste your food again!

    When you hit the 6 month mark, I'll give you a 6 pack of my homebrew.

    The first time I quit, I used the dirty ashtray method. Get a craving for one just stick you nose in the ashtray and take a wiff. Seriously, it worked for me.

    After I quit I couldnt stand to be around a smoker, they smelled like a wet ashtray (STUNK BAD) and I wonder "damn if I smelled like that no wonder people looked at me kinda funny.[:0]

    Rule No 1, dont say "If I can" say "I will".

    Rule No 2, leave the dip (snuff) alone, every hear of lip, tongue, throat cancer, and it doesnt stop the craving for a smoke anyway, just another health hazard.

    Need help, give us a call, talk about it, but get over it by any means available.. Your family will love ya for it.

    Hard process, I quit many years ago at a time I was smoking 2-3 packs a day. Changing some patterns will help after meals, etc.

    Hang in there and tell yourself you are going to do and if you are now ready to quit then set your mind to it and do it.

    Git R Done,

    I tell myself each night before I go to bed that I should just quit, for some reason it seems so easy to decide to quit right before bedtime.

    I truly hope hope you kick the habit, if you find that you dont succeed in the cold turkey method DO NOT GIVE UP, try the above mentioned new medication, im going to try it after talking to a co worker who quit after 50 years of smoking using the prescription.

    I have also heard that simply prolonging the first cig of the day by 30 minutes each day also is a good way to stop, before you know it you havent smoked and its 4pm and so on..although I have never tried it.
