What I found really good was a prescription drug called Champix. It does have some side effects such as nightmares (in some people) but the great thing is that you continue to smoke until day 14 (which gives you a definite date to aim for and prepare yourself mentally) and at this point you stop smoking and continue with the tablets which stop the nicotine cravings but more importantly, help you to break the actual habit.

I'm off them two years now, still get cravings, but as has been said, they pass.

Yeah I tried champax but it didn't work.

Cold.turkey is the only way
