Have you tried to quit smoking while undergoing treatment?

Did any of you have quit smoking buddies? By buddy, I mean someone who quit smoking before you or with you and supported you along the way. Or did you go it alone?

I made a decision that I would quit after my step granddaughter stated that her child could not be around anyone who smoked. It was easy for me after that. Stopping is something that you have to make a commitment to yourself that you are going to. You begin by counting each day that you have not had a cigarette. I also go very busy with my hands doing crafts and therefore fixed that park of the desire. I did gain a few pounds at first but then tapered off. It has been 25 years and I am now sickened by the smell. Karma?
I wish everyone who is trying to quit luck and while it is easy once you decide to commit to yourself. Fran
That should read step daughter not step granddaughter. Sorry, Fran

@colleenyoung I went it alone, but I have to be honest, I had a huge motivation - I was pregnant. I always said if I got pregnant I would give it up, and I did. I have never had another cigarette. When my son was young he used to proudly take credit for my giving it up, since I was pregnant with him.
