MJ makes you cough more than tobacco {given that you're smoking it}, but tobacco is addictive while MJ isn't.... not physically anyway. Someone might develop a psychological addiction, but it doesn't have anything in it that causes a physical dependence like caffeine, nicotine, codeine, etc.
Personally, I just quit cold turkey, but then again, I didn't smoke cigarettes much to begin with, so it was easy for me even with all my friends smoking around me and living with my mum at the time, who also smoked.
One thing I heard helps some people is to occupy your hands or mouth with something else when you get a craving, such as chew gum {doesn't have to be nicotine gum} or sewing. This is basically a means of treating the psychological addiction. After enough time off them, the physical addiction will subside. The psychological part is really what makes most people keep going back to them.

Well, due to severe allergies this year, I haven't been able to smoke anything, not even my e-cig. in about 5 days now. I'm going through the nicotine withdraw like mad right now, but I might just be forced to quit. (Not sure if anyone else has ever tried smoking with hay fever before, but it's a very unpleasant experience.) Let's just hope I am able to avoid picking the habit back up once the allergies subside.
As far as mj goes, I can't touch the stuff. I have tried it a few times in the past, every time in the past have had a very bad reaction to it. I basically curled up into a ball on the floor screaming and crying, thinking I was going to die. I'd be like that for an hour before any of my friends were able to calm me down. So, no mj Gracie.
And also, who wouldn't want to quit after smoking grass? That's just gross.

Ok, I figured I could throw my two cents in since I have quit smoking before for almost a year. Though the way that happened I wouldn't recommend unless you were wanting them to begin with. I got pregnant and quit cold turkey, and well pregnancy hormones and nicotine withdrawal suck when both are going at the same time. I did start back up again when I started freaking out about being a young mother, and I have thought from time to time to try quitting again, but it's a lot easier to quit when someone else around you doesn't smoke. My husband smokes, but he quit the same time I did. He started back up however before I did, so that didn't help.
Never tried MJ, but that's more for health reasons than anything else. I'm severely allergic, and the smell alone will cause me to have an asthmatic reaction. Makes me paranoid when I do smell it, since my kids could have the same allergy (it runs in the family, my father was also severely allergic).

Pregnancy wouldn't really work for me, though I have seen people actually quit smoking after becoming pregnant and manage not to fall back into it after the child is born.
Trust me if I could have a child, it wouldn't be as a way to force myself to stop though. It would be for a much better reason, like getting to have the baby that I've wanted for a few years now but couldn't have.
Tes, the stuff was mj I made completely sure of it, and it was my best friend giving it to me, so I know he didn't lace it with anything. He can't really figure out why I've had a severe mental reaction to it every time I smoke it though. He told me he's never seen anyone else react that badly to just weed before in his life.
