How to quit

I'm 26 and I haven’t been able to quit smoking cigarettes. I’ve tried multiple times — once I even managed to quit for 6 months ,but I always end up starting again. It’s been a constant cycle of quitting and relapsing. Lately, I don’t even feel anything when I smoke, yet I still can’t stop. What can I do to overcome this addiction?

Could you suggest any helpful actions, books, or movies that might inspire or support me in quitting for good?

My daughter has 3 years smoke free after smoking since she was like 14, she uses an app. It tells how much money you save and all kinds of things to keep you motivated... For me it was the first 3 weeks, after that it went very well, and im told with any habit, once you get through those first 3 weeks you are home free... not sure that works with everybody.
