Smoking is something I never really did, and it's hard to imagine being addicted to smokes. I tried them a couple of times, but the only thing they ever did for me was make me sick. As in I'd have a runny nose, sore throat, sometimes a cough, and I was hoarse for hours the few times I've tried them, and seeing as I got nothing else out of it what-so-ever I saw no reason to take up the habit.

If it's any help, I've heard some people say that part of the addiction is having something to do with your hands. If you can find something else to fiddle with or occupy your fingers with when you'd normally want to grab for a cigarette, it might help somewhat. Don't know how those patches or the gum works, but you could always at least give those a try as well.

What techniques have you tried thus far? Saying what you have tried might give people a better idea of what suggestions to give you to help you quit.
