Congratulations ZZ; that is great.
My experience in 1990 was get a pack of cinnamon sticks and “smoke” those as pacifiers; they had taste, you could inhale and get real air, and they were cool looking.
For me it took twenty-seven days of thinking “I will never get through the day,” and then saying, “yes I will get through this day.” Going to bed with the knowledge that on that day I was successful. On the 28th day I never had the negative thought again. It has been over 10,000 days.
Again congratulations. Good show!!!

I quit 5+ years ago after smoking for 40. I’m still addicted to nicotine but get that via my vape which is 4k better than smoking!!

I like the smell of some of those flavors when I go by someone using one.
I’ve been smoking for 40 years as well, I am 54yo and started at 14yo.
I was a daily toker too but I quit that habit 6 years ago after 30 years (!)

Jan 4th 2005 I last smoked anything. I did it by taking words like trying, attempting, or hoping, out of the equation. I made it a fact. I do not smoke from now.
I am not “trying to give up” or “attempting to quit” or “hoping to stop”. Those words are negatives and just excuses to fail. I do not smoke from now. I dont try to get out of bed at 6am, I do get in the shower. I dont attempt to go to work, I do put my butt in the driver seat. I dont hope to see the dentist, I do book an appointment. Like all of those actions, this is an action I am taking. I do not smoke from now . I dont try to quit smoking, I do not smoke from now.
For me, once I made that decision, and committed to it 100%, it became one of the facts in my life and (surprisingly to me) was much easier to achieve than I had expected.
If there was one piece of advice I would offer to any soon-to-be ex smoker it would be this… commit to it 100%, no trying, no hoping, no attempting. You do not smoke from now. Commit to it 100% and I promise you 100% that you will be 100% successful.

I read Allen Carr’s “Easy Way To Stop Smoking” which made it really easy to quit. It’s fun to read, e.g there’s a chapter about the advantages of smoking; it’s a blank page 
The book(let) makes you feel relieved of a burden and changes your attitude.
For anyone who’s interested, here’s a FREE download in PDF format: http://prdupl02.ynet.co.il/ForumFiles_2/15119301.pdf
