What do you think is the best smoking cessation product to help quitting?I have been smoking for about 14 years. i will be thirty next week and desperately want to quit. I have used the patch and quit for over a year, however the patch gave me a horribly painful rash and severe nightmares, even when i didn't where it at night. I was just wondering, for those who were successful quitting, what worked for you? was it cold turkey, pure motivation, patch , gum, inhaler. I would love some thoughts and advice to get me going on this. Thanks.

To start, I decided to stop smoking when I was by myself. I would only smoke when I was around friends who smoked or at a party. When I stopped getting the urges to smoke when I was alone, I stopped buying cigarettes all together. I would bum smokes every once in a while from friends who were smoking and really cut down on my habit. Once I saw how much money I was saving and how much better I felt, I decided I had made the right decision and decided I did not want to continue smoking at all. It's amazing how much better you feel a couple months after quitting.
Good luck. Going cold turkey rarely ever works, weening yourself off of the cigarettes with your own plan that you stick to is the best way.

Hi Coast..
I too tried all all that stuff..with about the same results you had... always went back.. i finally tried getting some support.. i had always failed alone..
after smoking for over 40 years, the last 5 of which, were a constant battle of failed quits.. i now have over 5 years clean.. the difference for me was that I no longer have to do it alone..
I am a member of Nicotine Anonymous... I Attend meetings both locally, and on line.. on line meetings are as close as your computer..
however you decide to quit good luck, there is really no wrong way to quit!!

Try Green smoke. It isn't really a quitting thing, you'll still have the addiction, but it gets rid of all the harmful chemicals, making it completely safe for you and everyone around you.
It's an electronic cigarette designed to look, feel and taste like the real thing, but the only thing in it is nicotine and the only thing it gives off is water vapor. So no lung clogging, no cancer, and no danger to you or your loved ones... also no smell sticking to everything you own.
On top of that, it can save you up to 75% of what you would normally spend on cigarettes!
