The Only way you gonna stop is if you "really want to" its a mind set, I've tried once or twice but can't, reason being, I enjoy my smke with my morning coffee or after a meal, so what the hell, at my age I'm gonna carry on... Cutting down is good though! If u have to stop, say for health reasons, than try "eating" a ciggy instead of lighting it lol, a friend of mine stopped this way handshake

Sorry I'm ignorant in the world of smoking but I did find this for you;
We reall do frown on smoking in this country and were the first in the world to pass plain packaging legislation a year ago

Australia Health Authorities are Completely Missing the Point on E-Cigarettes
Health authorities in Australia have banned the use of electronic cigarettes because, as they argue, vaping mimics smoking and encourages people to continue smoking.

According to an article in the Canberra Times: "Canberrans keen to try smokeless ''e-cigarettes'' are running a legal tightrope, with the product banned across Australia despite its increasing availability online. ... The Australian Medical Association said there was no evidence ''e-cigarettes'' helped people quit, and Victorian AMA president Harry Hemley warned the products posed a serious health risk. ... ACT Health said e-cigarettes also encouraged people to continue smoking behaviour. ''Because e-cigarettes mimic smoking in both design and use, the ACT Health Directorate does not support [their use],'' a spokeswoman said. ''The Health Directorate strongly advocates the de-normalisation of smoking and e-cigarettes are counterproductive to this goal.''"

well you can try nicotine replacement therapy. nicotine patches which come in 3 different strength depending on how heavy you smoke.u can get 20mg/14mg/7mg.if you are heavy smoker i would try the 21mg then go down using the 14 then the 7mg. u can get gum which you use which released nicotine also in different strength the trick is to chew it about 6-10 times then park it/place it in the side of your mouth or lozenges which you suck.

In Nz you can get champix which is a drug prescribed by the doctor.just another option.

i wish you well with this and its an addiction so go easy on yourself if you relaspe.we all have addictions and you have done the hardest part by making the decision to stop good on you. yay applause applause applause
