Finally after many I'll give up soon or maybe next week or sometime Never. I have not had a Cigarette for only 4 days the longest ever...... Might not sound like a lot to you folks but I for the first time have not had a smoke or nicotine and got over the 72 hour period without weakening and then drifting back....Question is can I keep it up....I reckon I might....

Hi--it has been almost 8 months for me. Still want one, but not too awful bad. I was a medical assistant for almost 30 years, and most doctors recommend quitting "cold turkey" (then you won't go back because you know what a hassle it was to quit). I agree. You are doing really great. (The first 3 days are the hardest, and now you are over that).
cherrybrandy: thats very brave Pat... saying it in public too.. im planning to do the same in September
Threatened for ages and did try but always had an excuse this time just said sod it and that's it........Believe it or not no urges today, well not for tobacco
Well done mate! keep it up! remember you are not "giving" anything up, rather you are "gaining" your life back. Its one of the hardest things you will ever do, but soo worth it. Be strong my friend.
Went "cold turkey" 6 months ago and feeling great!!!

just wish you will keep it that way.. no sinful urges.. i guess you have reached that point when you just start hating yourself for having this sort of weakness... i do at times..but not all the time..
cherrybrandy: just preparing myself,knowing its not going to be easy.. and going for a holiday at that time,i will have around people,who will support me..
I am sure you will do it when you really want to....
