world, who will not fail you, is 'thy own self'. If that rule is applied
here, you shall have your last puff, when you decide about it.
Why
this highest taxed commodity, attracts highest numbers of people? It is
such a strong personalized habit, no cut and dry formulas can be put
forth, to quit smoking. How deep is your cigarette trench? Are you
consuming the cigarettes or the cigarettes consume you?
Who will
be the victor in the emerging battle?
If you
are a marginal case, if your day is done with a few cigarettes, cold
turkey may well suit you. To what degree you are addicted to nicotine?
This is the deciding factor. But if you require 5 packets of cigarettes
per day (50 cigarettes), you will have tough time in negotiating the
quit-boat! This path has led to the smoking-salvation, for about 5% of
the people, who opted thus.

compulsive smoker, and you go for a cigarette, when you are under
stress. You need something in your mouth for psychological relief. And

You need to try the chewing gum. But eventually don't cultivate the
habit of both?chewing gum as well as the cigarette!
If you are not sure about your will power, do believe in the will
power of someone else, to control your will power. That is possible by
hypnotherapy. In this method, your subconscious mind is targeted in your
artificially articulated unconscious state, and certain vibrations
against your smoking habit, are transmitted to you. But, you will carry
the feeling throughout your life that someone else is responsible for
your quitting the smoking habit. Doesn't matter, a friend in need is a
friend indeed!
Price factor has not deterred you from smoking,
but you need to constantly give the auto-suggestion to your mind, that
you can save lots of money, by quitting smoking. Even if it has marginal
effect to reduce your smoking, this point is worth a serious
consideration.

methods to get rid of smoking forever. You need to find a suitable
nicotine replacement alternative and half the battle is won. Join group
counseling sessions, where you are told and retold many a damaging
effects of the smoking habit. This will definitely have profound effects
as for your relations with the cigarette habit.
