Been trying since 10 years ago, tried using gums, candies, patches and even get on the level of using vape but still cant quit. Lucky those people who have quit.

It seems only way to quit is one's own will.

True. I guess, mind over matters.

I have the same problem. I can't quit Smoking though I want to do it. When I am at work I smoke rarely because I'm too lazy to get out of the office and helps to focus on work, but when I go home the number of cigarettes smoked increases three times.

I quit smoking cold turkey eight years ago. While on vacation actually.
I didn't have problems staying away from cigarettes, was lucky that way.
Even when people were smoking in my vicinity I didn't get the urge to join them.

Weirdest thing is that I kept smoking in my dreams, and was regularly confused when I woke up if I really smoked or not.

Yes i am, the reason that quitting smoking is difficult isn't necessarily because you're young, old, smoke a little or a lot, or have smoked for ages. It's tough to quit because cigarettes are addictive. The nicotine acts like a drug in your system. It's what gives you that "high," relaxed, and happy feeling when you smoke that keeps you coming back for more.

Anyone who is truly addicted to nicotine is going to have a tough time quitting smoking, and that's certainly true for seniors who have been lighting up for decades. Plus, it's a physical habit. A cigarette is what you have with your breakfast, after your dinner, while you're watching TV, or when you're chatting with friends. It's the habit of smoking as much as the nicotine that is addictive and tough to give up.

No one said it was easy, but no one said it couldn't be done, either.

Quitting takes a lot of determination, hard work, and preparation. You need to know your potential roadblocks and triggers, and how you will handle them before they spring up and surprise you.

Some people have success quitting cold turkey and never light up again after making the big decision. Others do better gradually tapering off their smoking, cutting out more cigarettes each day until they've kicked the habit.

Getting older isn't an excuse to give up on your health. In fact, it's the perfect time to take control of your health and kick the habit that's been plaguing you for years.
