I used to smoke. I quit couple times with an aid of a drug that immitated nicotine, such that when you loaded up with it, attemting to smoke would just make those cigs taste awful. However after the drug was weaned off, I would resume smoking, once even on purpose, alarmed by my weight gain.
I felt like "I should quit", rather that "I want to not smoke" and made me crave smoking even more.
