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....dunno grin cheers

Remember, the only cigarette you have to avoid is the next one. Keep up the good fight. You'll make it just fine.

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). thumbs up thumbs up

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.

handshake




Went "cold turkey" 6 months ago and feeling great!!!
