Melodian, You have conquered the first obsticle in the fact you want to quit and GOOD FOR YOU. I quit several times meaning I thought I had quit, picking up that next smoke is a NO NO. These folks have all chimed in with good advise. I confess than when I took the nasty desire for cigarettes to church and requested prayer for kicking the habit, it worked and I hav'nt had that nagging feeling of thinking I was going to die if I coulnd'nt get my hands on a smoke.
Turning it over to a higher supreme power can't hurt. Another possibility is acupuncture. You can search that one out on the net. I hear the acupunture results are favorable. I still have Christian convictions but don't like to Bible thump or Holy Roll anyone into a frenzy. but it really did do the job and quickly.
Hang in there and try what ever it takes to quit, it's worth it and never pick up that "just one won't hurt anything" When you've quit, really quit by promissing yourself...Never again. Good Luck
