40. Once you find your quitting method, Q-tips can help ...

... when I finally quit for good, cold turkey, after three tries (I'm smoke-free 20 years, and don't EVER wish for a coffin nail), I kept Q-tips in my office desk drawer and on the coffee table where my ashtray used to be.

Whenever I had that craving to drag on a filter, I stuck a Q-tip in my mouth, and inhaled through THAT (and, of course, held the Q-tip like a cig, to complete the obsessive-complusive gesture).

I didn't use any sort of patch or gum, so I did climb the walls for a while (and then there's the weight gain), but quitting was the best thing I ever did for myself.

Thank God for Q-tips!!
