I've been trying to quit too, last time (1 year ago) one day one box 20's...

Now one day maximum 6 sticks... For me, it's quite an achievement, but i cant seem to lower it to 0...

Any ex-heavy smokers to advice here?

hey bro well i am an ex smoker still young tho but i quit because i wanted too. I feel much better now.
My experience is to first to stop all the chiggy's that i like. For an example right after food, right after i wake up. After i have accomplished that i moved on to generally quitting. Quitting to me is a sudden gesture. I just let go. For a few months. Yes its hard but you need will power. Being active in sports helped me. then one day i bought a stick from a mamak shop to test my addiction. To my surprise i did not feel like smoking it more than half the but.  smile.gif

Hi there ts, me also in progress. I tried to stop directly but cant. i just reduced the amount of smoking. Now i just smoke 3 ciggs per day and only smoke when at home. I dont bring ciggs while outing. hope this might help you.

if you are a malay, then fast.

i did it during fasting month. First i reduced my stick per day. Then i limited 1 stick per day. Then i gradually increase the limit (eg 1 stick per week.. etc) until i forgot.

Of course, i changed my friends to non smokers. That helps very much. I moved out and hang out with my ol good friends who doesn't smoke and left my smokers friend all out.

If you are a non muslim, you can fast too. You know the reaction of people when they come to you and say hey neato let's smoke, and then you smiled and say sorry i am fasting.

Even though you're not fasting, you can always tell them you are, because you're fasting from smoking! laugh.gif

Yup, heavy smokers do smoke 20-30 cigas per day, if budget allows, I think they will even go beyond this  sweat.gif

What about those nicotine gum or patches? Are they available at pharmacy openly or must go get doctor prescription?
