Can YOU help Me? ~Quit Smoking~

I'm 18, graduating within months, and i cant take it.....im smoking a pack a day, and i cant even afford to save for collage if i keep on smoking, not like it will be worth it if i get cancer but...... i've tryed everything from gum to a stress ball, even doing 50 sit-ups when i want a smoke but nothing seems to work.

CAN you help me?

I'm sorry to say that nobody can help you quit...you need to do that yourself. We can give you advise but you need to want it more than anything else. I quit a 18 year smoking habit by quitting cold turkey. The few times I was about to fail and buy a pack of cigarettes I used a small nicotine patch to get me through the moment. That happened maybe 6 times and was a HUGE help to me...but again there is no magic pill.

You have the strength within, just tap into that....
