Dont have any stories cause I dont smoke, but you should go out for a long weekend with your friends.
Do shit that will distract you. Eventually you wont have that craving anymore.
Yeah you could go away and just go some fun shit. Get distracted and before you know it you wont have a craving for smoking * As much * but every bit helps
I smoked for 2 years, and I would do this to keep my hands distracted http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FG9pwr_-ZPE but honestly it will require a lot of self motivation. I would sweat and break down in class all the time, but now I've been smoke free for 3 years. If it works let me know.
