Wow...look at the support! Although the battle to quit is very personal, I urge you to find a partner to help. Maybe a spouse, friend, or coworker wants to stop as well.
Read a book on quitting from the library...carry a "ten reasons to quit" list that you write out...a picture of your kids...a "yuck" jar full of old wet cigarettes to smell when you get the urge to light up...whatever it takes! Set out a plan (to go cold turkey or whittle down or whatever) and a quit date a few weeks in advance. On that date you throw out your matches, lighters (including the one in your dashboard), ash trays, and hidden packs of smokes. You tell everyone that you are quiting and not to let you bum a cigarette.
Go see your physician! There are medicines (and of course nicotine replacement products) that may help. Ask him/her about Welbutrin (also called Zyban and Buproprion).
Oh...I'd also pray. God can do all things!
