    Try the nicotrol inhaler. It's availabe by prescription - meaning that for the insured, the insurance company will pay for your smokes.

    It's not like an e-cig. It looks like a cigarette holder. It contains a filter filled with synthetic nicotine. You draw on it like you do a cigarette. I personally found the draw too hard, so I used a corn-on-the-cob pick to punch holes in the filter until I had an acceptible draw.

    It's nice to be able to go to a restaurant and have a smokeless cigarette after a meal, or go to the hospital to visit a friend and smoke next to the oxygen machine. It's nice to be able to smoke at your desk at work and cause no alarm.

    that very much sounds like it resembles the well made eCigs they make now. It looks nothing like an actual cigarette and theres no "smoke" with them either just water vapor.

    I would recommend you at least give it a shot with a well made eCig. It's well worth it, my father in law smoked for 30+ years and now only uses his eCig and would never go back to smoking. You can even customize the flavor and nicotine level of the eJuice you get so you can play around with what you like. I HIGHLY recommend www.vapedudes.com they are great and their prices are phenomenal!

    Yes they do! I am actually an electronic cigarette enthusiast! :) They have made GREAT advances in the last year to them and I have not had a real cigarette in months! I enjoy the action and sensation of smoking and the eCig is a win/win. You fill the tank with liquid flavored nicotine and you inhale and blow out water vapor! No bad smell, no yellow teeth, no cancer AND you can "vape" whenever and where ever you want! Also it is so much cheaper, a 10ml bottle of eJuice (nicotine fluid) costs about $6.00 and is equal to a CARTON of cigarettes!

    Cold turkey is the only way. I quit in feb 2012. I was in the hospital after a cigarette caught my shirt on fire. I still want a cigarette but the visual damage and new fear of fire stops me. I wouldn't suggest it as a way of quitting but it's something to think about.

    Yes. I quit smoking. using none of the above. The government tax and the profit on the cigarette are a lot more than the actual cost of the cigarette. once the manufacturers increased the cost abnormally and I felt smokers are being exploited. Then I decided to quit smoking. Initially I got over the feeling by sleeping at odd hours when I felt urge to smoke. Then after a few weeks I got over the habit. To day I feel happy I could save so much money.
