Hard doesn't even come close!!
I've tried giving up smoking several times and never had much (any!) success.
There's two situations where it just seems unnatural not to be smoking - in the pub and playing cards. Unfortunately in the UK I can no longer smoke in pubs or in casinos, which sucks.
When I used to go to land based casinos I used to pretty much chain smoke at the blackjack or poker tables - now I just do the same in front of my computer!!

I agree, it's very hard, i quit about 2 months ago, it's still hard and i miss it.
my hubby and i both quit!
we started out by not smoking in our house anymore. we did that for
over 2 yrs. then when we quit, we were already not smoking while we
watched tv or played on the computer, so when we finally decided to
quit altogether, it just seemed alot easier this time!
we have tried before, but this time we made it, wooohoooo
and i know it was the not smoking in our house that helped
us finally quit. I know everyone has to find their own way to
quit, it took us over 10 yrs. to give it up

It's really hard to quit smoking.. I quit in 2006 and the way I finally did it
was to tell myself I could have a cigarette whenever I wanted.. I just didn't want to have one at that moment in time
Oh and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of Tootsie Roll Pops

I quit in 06 when my husband passed I knew I had to keep up the fight and not smoke and be healthy for the kids. The not smoking in the house is the first step as Dani said.
I went to Vegas a few months after quitting and I knew after making it 4 days there without smoking I could do it!
