Quit for a year and a half. Plan on quitting again tomorrow. Good luck on your attempt!
This is how I quit last time, and plan on doing the same again...
When you NEED a cigarette the first day, wait 10 minutes, then break off the filter and smoke it like a cigar. Usually only get a couple of puffs before tossing it, but you get the nicotine through your gums and not your lungs.
Repeat the second day, but wait 15 minutes, and 20 minutes on the third day.
After about 5 days / a week, I was having one a day (usually after getting home from work). Within 2 weeks, I was having just a couple a week, and within a month I was done.
This time, I will not make the mistake of thinking I can handle just one or two after getting massively stressed out. After it's been a while, you think you can handle it. I learned I can't, so now I'm going through it again.
