Well, some people certainly can do it. I smoke randomly and never seem to need to smoke more than a few times a week. But it seems some people (well, most people actually) just have really addictive personalities and need to either forget about smoking entirely, or else they're constantly smoking. I've never known someone who's addicted to actually cut down and keep it down without quitting or going back to their old ways. I mean, probably some people can do that, it just seems like most people who are addicted really can't...

I really know what you're saying! I smoke more now than ever! Of course, I haven't been working for months now and am home, so I guess that's why I am smoking so much. Good luck to you!

Some people do not have addiction problems with nicotine. They are a very small minority. I could give you a small lecture on synaptic receptors, but I'll spare you. When the moment is right for you, go cold turkey. Good luck.
