Shortisshort-

I am trying too. Your best bet is to go see your doctor and get chantix <sp?>. It's a pill that really works by blocking the receptors in your brain. I went on it and stopped smoking almost immediatly but then found out people that had Kidney transplants can't take it. I already have COPD and am 02! It's crazy. Next I am going to try acupuncture and/or a hyptnotist! Best of luck to you.
