Hi friend.
I myself have been smoking for 30 years.
I actually love smoking and smoke around 30/40 a day.
I've tried stopping several times, patches, gum, inhalators.
Even the thought of quitting breaks me out in a cold sweat.
Until recently.
My daughter bought me an e-cig for fathers day, and this is my 3rd day
without a real smoke, a record for me.
The thing that helps me with the e-cig is the whole effect.
You inhale and get the throat hit then blow smoke rings.
Whilst it is the early stages this is the best thing I have ever
tried to help me quit smoking and if this doesn't work i'll happily
smoke the rest of my life away with real smokes.

A friend of mine recently quit (I'm thinking about it, myself). the first two weeks are the killer.
His solution was to take a 2 week vacation. Something about being in a new environment with a new routine made it a lot easier, or so I'm told. Gets rid of all of the normal triggers and so on.

I'm almost 15 and I have been smoking for 15 YEARS!!!! I'm in the process of quitting now. I'm using patches, though the process has been very difficult I'm confident I can overcome.
Congrats to you for saying no to the Man's poison.
