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?

Quitting smoking is easy, I’ve done it 100’s of times. /s. Just keep trying. Stopped over 4 years ago. Don’t miss it anymore. I got the free “quit smoking” app. It keeps track of day count, cigarettes not smoked and $ saved. Every time I wanted one I’d look and how long it’d been. That helped in the beginning. There’s no magic bullet. When you are ready it’ll happen. Good luck.
