Try the 4Ds

  Delay acting on the urge to smoke. Don't open a pack or light a cigarette. After a few minutes, the urge to smoke will weaken, especially if you do the following:

  Deep breathe. Take a long slow breath in, and slowly out again. Repeat three times.

  Drink water. Sip it slowly, holding it in your mouth a little longer to savour the taste.

  Do something else. Take your mind off smoking by taking action - put on some music, go for a walk or ring a friend.

Even though withdrawal symptoms can be hard to go through, remember they are actually a good sign. They show your body is adjusting to being free from the chemicals in tobacco smoke.
