as someone who has quit my advise is this. It will take more than one attempt, you will always have the desire to smoke it just dosn't happen everyday, and the nicotine fits really only last for 5 minutes,(iv timed them) and stress ball in your hand helps. patches help but you have to put them on in the morning and you have to wear them for the perscribed amount of time. it does come down to will power and you have to not let every stress situation send you to the smoking area. i wish you the best and believe me one day the smell will send you up to orbit because to tell you the truth smokers stink.
