A member asked:

How do i quell smoking cravings?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It's difficult: There are medications that help some. You can learn to watch your mind and say to yourself that you're not going to give in to that particular trigger. Most helpful is reflecting that you've been enslaved by a jackass tobacco company ceo and that you are not going to give them the satisfaction of ruining the rest of your life.
