I'm ready to quit smoking any suggestions?

I have been smoking since i was 12 im 27 now i have tried everything from nicotine patches to electronic cigarettes. I sucessfully quit smoking cold Turkey for 3 months then i slipped up and started again. I want to hear what ex smokers did to quit and helped keep them quit. I dont want to hear from non smokers who never smoked or preaching people who say you shouldn't do that just dont smoke its simple because if you never smoked you dont know the addictiveness of nicotine and what it does to a persons mind to keep them from quitting. Prescriptions made me violently ill and the patches make my arm go numb and feel like ive been stabbed. The stress in my life currently keeps me from just stopping and electronic cigarettes gave me a massive headache and i vomited often im thinking it was too concentrated of a dose of nicotine. So like i said if you quit in any other way that wasnt what i tried already i would appreciate the suggestion. Im waking up every morning with my lungs feeling like they are dry and crunchy. I dont want to miss out on my sons life because of my weakness to smoking.

Your question made me think of a great video I just saw about 'Past Successful Quits". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39An4dNBhKI The guy makes the point that if you are smoking again, your previous quits failed.

i smoked for 21 years and quit cold turkey.
U said u have quit cold turkey before, so u know u can do it again. The one thing u need to change is ur attitude, so things like this,
"The stress in my life currently keeps me from just
stopping "
need to go, so stop making excuses for not quitting, and just do it, its the only way.
