Like any other habit or addiction, being mindful helps. I have quit smoking cigarettes and alcohol (uh, multiple times) by trying to stop myself when I start or am thinking about it by reminding myself of why I don’t want to do it. With cigarettes and alcohol, one might think “wow, I really want to go to the store and buy some”. It’s very hard to consume either one if you don’t have any, though, so I try to stop myself right then by remembering how many times before I’ve thought that I didn’t want to do either one. Generally if I can just stop myself from leaving to go get some, I can get over the urge. Then repeat as needed.
Seconded. You have to recognize when a craving is happening, and immediately decide and engage partaking an activity that occupies both mind and body until it passes.
As a tip, I play factorio and civ everytime I try to take a break from a very addictive behavior like smoking cigarettes. I also forget to eat and sleep while playing theses, but hey biters are attacking and I don’t have time for a cig!!!
