>> Yes, do keep trying.
I second that, RO'R. I'm ashamed to say that I smoked for years. To try and stop, I used willpower, read Alan Carr's book, went to a hypnotist and had acupuncture. They all worked, but not for long. Eventually a chest X-ray, which had to be repeated twice, scared me enough to try again.
I bought a hynosis CD and listened to it in bed every night for a week, whilst my partner was away. It seemed to have failed, but, when she returned, she asked to listen to it. I lay beside her in bed, not taking any notice, until she said "Okay, I've heard enough". In the morning, however, I didn't want a cigarette and things moved on from there.
Hypnosis sounds a bit silly, but the principle is quite simple. The aim is to make you so relaxed that the inner negative voice (telling you that you can't stop smoking) is silenced and you can hear a positive message instead.
