    Just do it. Pick a start day and go with it. I just did this. I am 10 days smoke free. I used the patch for the first 3 days. I had alot of weird dreams. When I stopped using the patch i felt alot better. I keep telling myself I AM A NONSMOKER. Deep breaths help to. Be ready because the habit is very strong.

    I have tried several things patches, gum, cold turkey etc. I quit for 3 months and during a stressful period in my life I started again. This time I just threw them away and instead of buying more I’ve made a vacation fund. I usally go through two cartons a week, so every week I put $60.00 in a little trash can I bought. A trash can is symbolic of me throwing my money away on smokes. By this time next year I will have enough money to take a nice little vacation, be smoke free, and be able to breathe again!!! I hope it works…one day at a time.

    talk to your doctor or nurse first. If you plan on cold turkey good luck there are many alternatives to try hypnosis, accupunture,get the different levels of nicotene patches You need to change your behavior ie when you typically smoke say after a meal have a alternative in place ie go for a walk. Realize that the next 2 years you will get frequent chest infections as the tar lifts from your cilia(the little hairs in your lungs)Your will gain weight put yourself on vitamins to help your self out get a partner to contact when that strong urge hits and realize that just because you may laspe one day and have a cig all is not lost GOOD LUCK
