If you have enough will power to not light it, I have found just the simple act of taking drags off of an unlit cigarette makes the craving go away!. Especially if it's a mentholWww@Answer-Health@Com

Congratulations on deciding to quit! I've been down this road many many times!
Here are some ideas when you get the craving:
1!. brush your teeth!.
2!. chew on a straw, toothpick, or lollipop!.
3!. keep your hands busy! Do a puzzle, knit, sew, cross-stitch, paint, etc!.
4!. keep a large bottle of cold water nearby and sip on it through out the day!.
The basic idea is just to keep as busy as you can and the craving will pass!. Good luck and I wish you the best with quitting!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Do puzzles, suck on sugar-free popsicles !.!.!. anything else except smoking!. Good job on deciding to quit!. You are already healthier!. Nicotine replacement can also help with the severe cravings!.
