Like Sam, I too "quit" several times in my life---once after two years, and again after three. Each time I was undone by the notion that I could enjoy "just one" for old time's sake. I learned that instead of bumming one smoke, you may as well go ahead and get a carton. Haven't had a good ole Winston since 1980.
My problem with laying them aside seemed to be not so much the nicotine addiction as it was the need to keep my mouth busy and happy. You can only chew so much gum and eat so much candy. Snuff is a terrible idea. I chanced upon something that worked great for me: I had had a load of dirt delivered to my lot and discovered it contained a bunch of sassafras roots. I dug them out, washed the dirt off, cut them into small pieces, bark on. I'd pop a piece into my mouth and wallow it around for hours. I'd go through several pieces a day. It has good taste (root beer) and I think it's mildly narcotic. Worked for me.
In any event, whatever your method, don't surrender. Taper off if you must, but total stop is better. Like others have said, you must be fully committed.
