Actually, the way I quit was by switching to straws. Cut your standard straw in half and each half is about the size and definitely the shape of a cigarette. Whenever I felt an overwhelming urge to smoke, I'd pull out my half a straw, and inhale, exhale as if I were smoking. Because while the actual nicotine addiction is over within 3 days, what isn't tackled by gum or anything like that is that hand to mouth action, which is kind of automatic... I recommend it highly.
BTW, what got me to finally quit was my husband had a heart attack, and I was in the heart hospital with him for 3 days sans cigarettes. So...
Oh wow, I didn't know about that option. Straws are a great idea. Sorry to hear about your husband's heart attack, but I'm glad you were able to kick the habit.
