The abuse of alcohol and other substances is really manifestation of "CRY for HELP".Please do not rely on "over the counter" method.There are medications available for helping to quit smoking. You must consult a Psychiatrist. Also, consult a Psychologist if the Psychiatrist so specifies, for resolving some underlying emotional issues.
