I recommend Tea Tree chewing sticks (buy them at the health food store). Also, you might try a spoonful of Cream of Tartar mixed into a glass of orange juice. Drink that when you first wake up and later on in the day once as well. I'm also a big fan of exercise as a way to replace the "happy chemicals" in your brain. And finally, I suggest that you sleep through the worst part of your withdrawal. If you don't know how to do that, then figure out how many hours into quitting is the peak of your withdrawal, and then time it so that you have not slept for AT LEAST 36 hours up till then. That way, you will sleep through the worst of it, and wake up a true non-smoker! @ Billie Paine – my thought is that you should try to quit as close to cold turkey as possible, especially without using NRT products (nicotine replacement therapies).

How ever I did get commit a few years ago and I quit for 2 years. I'm back smoking of course and wondering why commit is not available.I really need to quit. Do you have any other suggestions for a pill that might help me quit? I sure would appreciate one. Thank you Billie D. Paine I have tried chantix and it didn’t work for me.
