Default Need to quit smoking

I have tried many times to quit. Never works and I always give into the cravings. I get horriable withdrawl I feel like I am going to jump out of my skin. I havent quit yet because I am scared it wont work and I will just put myself through hell for nothing. I am also scared to gain weight I dont want to gain all the weight back that I tried so hard to lose. Please give me some idea how I can get rid of these fears.

Honestly I don't have any great advice to give you. It was the hardest thing I have ever done...I still have cravings and it has been months and months since I quit smoking. I went 3 years without smoking and then returned. For me it is an ongoing battle....esp. since I am surrounded by smokers. I just try to do other things to occupy my mind and when I used to have the MAJOR fits to and wanted to smoke badly I would just smoke a little cigar.... I don't know if that is a no-no or not but it is what helped me. Good luck. I know how difficult this is.
