    CHEW! Chew on straws, gum, Popsicle sticks, etc. Take a pen cap with a small opening a inhale through the little hole like a cigarette. If you do this for 5 minutes you'll kind of get that calmed oxygen deprived feeling like smoking. Nicotine gum can help, but isn't a great alternative. If you're super desperate dipping tobacco can help; it'll save your lungs, but it's also really bad for you.

    Other than that, discipline and determination are the only thing that will guarantee success GOOD LUCK

    I chain smoked for many, many years,quit cold turkey and never relapsed. All the hype about uncontrollable cravings is bull. Just show a little backbone, throw the *&^%$ things away and never look for whiny excuses to start smoking again. If I had known how easy it was, I would have quit years earlier.

    Try chewing gum or get a cheap bag of candy and eat one every time you want to smoke it will curve your oral fixation. I've also heard of ppl going to a hypnotist.

    I used and know of many others that have used this Christian 12 Step Program. It works!
