First of all you really have to be able to want it. Its all basically mind over matter and if you arent totally willing, then it wont work. My best advice is to set a date that you want to be smoke free by. Set a limit on the amount you smoke each day and keep eliminating the number until you reach your date (ie- start out limiting to 10 a day, then lower it to 8, then 5, until you can go a day without any. Then by your "stop" date you should be smoke free. Also the best way I find to ditch a craving is chewing gum. Whenever you feel like you really need one, pop a piece of gum in your mouth and itll help alot. Best wishes to you :)

Try some product that you can find on telebrands and home shopping programs. For more information you can see their websites too.

I don't have the answer to this question, if I did I wouldn't be smoking today as I to have this horrid habit. It's not easy once you start but you are young so maybe will be easier for you as you haven't been smoking so long. Maybe try finding something to replace the cigerrets; drinking a glass of water when you think you want one helps me a little, or doing something different with my hands like typing or crochetting.

You have to want to quit...that is the first step. Next is to set goals that even when you fail...which you will... that you can start/try again then next day. For me I would leave my pack in the car outside of work...instead of in my pocket. Finally, you'll do it it just takes time.
