i quit 'cold turkey' a little over a year ago. it really sucked at first, but i kept in mind something i had read in one of those weird little books they keep near the registers at bookstores, which i always feel compelled to look through. but i digress..
- ask yourself what's the worst that could happen if you don't have a cigarette RIGHT NOW?
.. usually you can distract your mouth/brain wiht gum or something, and your nictoine craving will pass within 5-10 mins
for me, the cravings became less and less over the first month or so til i just didnt think bout ciggies anymore..
though i must admit i can still be tempted by a joint..
