Fellow cigarette smokers - do you chain smoke sometimes?

1) An old fashioned cigarette case that holds 5-10 cigarettes. Take it when you go out and, usually, knowing you only have a few will make you think when lighting up. Also, the cases open like a book, and you remove the cigarette from under a clasp, so you have to /look/ every time you grab a smoke - added benefit: other people are less likely to "bum" a smoke.

2) At home, as often as possibe, make your own cigarettes. Nowadays, they have inexppensive machines that will roll a proper cigarette, with a filter, in seconds. Most major tobacco comanies put out their own tobacco and filter-tubes, so ittastes like "the real thing". Keep the machine in another room so you have to get up and /work/ for the cigarette when you need them.

3) Make one area you use most (for example, the computer desk) a smoke-free zone. Many people don't have the willpower to restrict smoking to the outdoors or to a single room, but /do/ have it in them to refrain from smoking in a small area.

4) Put yourself on a schedule. 1 smoke every X hours. Seta timer or alarm, and keep the cigarettes near the timer. Occasionally you may slip, but the timer is a good/frequent reminder.

5) Only buy enough cigarettes for 1 pay period. If you smoke your allotment for one day, you must suffer till the next day.

I've tried every possible combination of the above, and actually ended up cutting down to 5 a day :)

Best of luck~

Chain smoking is what gets you soo hooked on that sometimes it's impossible to ever quit
