I am so sorry the above methods haven't helped.

I know this is going to sound strange but I am wondering if a similar type program that I advocate for tapering psych meds might work in your case?

For example, if you smoke 40 cigarettes, smoke 36 for three weeks. Then cut down to 32 and repeat the process.

You will be making 10% cuts. Obviously, you can't cut by 3.6 cigarettes so just pick a higher or lower number for your next cut.

And you you can speed up or slow the program down to your comfort level. Unlike with psych meds where I feel you should wait at least 3 weeks before making a cut, I am not aware that would be necessary with cigarettes.

I am just suggesting you wait 3 weeks to take the pressure off.

I am sure you're thinking this will take forever but if every other method has failed, why not give it a shot? What do you have to lose except maybe your cigarette smoking habit?
