the best thing to do is to try and recognize the things you associate smoking with and then find a replacement activity.
what kind of smoker are you? how many packs a day? how long have you been smoking?

I've quit cold turkey before for 9 months...but someone offered me a cig and I thought "its only one cig"....next day I bought a pack...GGRRR.
I smoke probably a pack every 1-2 days...sick of buying them and just been worrying about the effects of smoking a lot lately. And you're right...its not that I want the cig for the nicotine...I just want something to do...I'm used to going out 2-3 times a day just to have a smoke...my body wants to go outside and chill. It felt good to sit down on the outside top floor and have a drag...relaxing.
