Good luck. I've quit a few times, and am currently not smoking, except very seldom in special occasions.

I always just quit cold turkey; a few times I did get proper physical symptoms, cold sweat and such, but usually it's just been I'm feeling irritated and angry.

But for the past years I've only smoked quite little...anyway, this time when I got past the first month, I haven't really felt any urge to smoke at all.

However, much like alcoholics, I must admit I am a smoker, always will be. IMO it's better to - seldom - when for instance drinking, to smoke and that'll make you so sick in the morning and not want to even see a cicarrette...works for me. If I just stay away, then some day when things go bad and everything sucks big time, I know I'll start smoking again and that's it again for a good while.

But, I've also decided when I get old&retire, I'll start smoking again...the last thing I want is fade away with dementia like my parents, and I can only hope that before I get too old, I'll have the sense to drink and smoke myself to grave instead ;-) my plan is to deal out all my belongings to my children, the house and cottage and all before I go into retirement, and spend my retirement years on a boat somewhere warm, just drinking&smoking day in day out till the body just keels over...my idea of the best way to end my life.
