How to Stop Morning Smoke

I cannot seem to stop the morning cig with coffee. I always stop off to get my coffee and a smoke, thinking it’s going to get me going for the day (I know this is fault). I’ve gone about four mornings without it but keep relapsing... please help.

A few last thoughts Smiley08‌ : Are you using some sort of nicotine therapy such as patches, mints, gum, and/or lozenges? If you are going "cold turkey" it's just possible that you might be one who'd have an easier quit if you used these aids. Also have you read Alan Carr's book "The Easy Way to Stop Smoking?" I know it helped me get my head on straight... It's free online as a pdf or can be ordered as a "real" book through Amazon... Sending positive vibes your way~

Are you able to take a different road to your work that's not your usual way ? It might help . Smoking has its associations . Good for you for breaking them . 

Water bottles in the car instead of coffee cups . 

Even tea in the morning instead of coffee might help . 

I always had the newspaper handy at the table with my coffee . 

I quit smoking in the car years before I quit . 

You have a lot of good advise here from others .. best to you . You can do it .
