Well, I have to disagree with the person who posted that it is all in your head!. While most addictions are part psychological!.!.!. nicotine addiction is quite physical as well!.
Nicotine is responsible for the production of dopomine (which is associated w/pleasure)!. And that is why quitting can be difficult because your body has began to rely on the nicotine instead of the natural dopamine your body creates!.
SO!.!.!. quitting is not easy!. Infact only 3-5% of people who try to quit are actually successful! (Hughes et al, 2004)!. But dont let that deter you from quitting!.
The reason I am so interested in this topic is because I recently started smoking again (and i mean with in the last week)!. I quit for 6 solid months!. And an addiction that is this strong blows my mind!.
So to answer your question, since the gum/patch did not help you then you should really consider another treatment such as a smoking cession drug (chantex i hear is a good one)!.
BUT let me remind you of one thing!. In order to be successful at quitting smoking you really have to want to quit!. I found that all the times I tried quitting before I did not really WANT to quit, i was just doing it for the people who wanted me to!. You have to do it for yourself, not anyone else!. So!.!.!. let me leave you with this website that is full of scary statistics about smoking and the harmful effects it has on your body!. That way it will motivate you to want to quit (thats what motivated me in the beginning)!. Goodluck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Quitting is easy at 5 years with some pot smoking experience because of the mentality changes generated by using various different smoking devices, but I think that the fact you have been deep into cigars makes it tough!. Chew on some celery!. Bow your head slowly(safety factor) and at the same time take the deepest breath ever!. Then before you exhale, close your lips tight, and blow out the deep breathe while still forcing your lips tight so the air gets through but just barely!. With ur head still facing down repeat this technique until the craving has vanished and onto the next!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
