good luck.
my mom's parents both died from emphyzima? her mom never smoked, she died from second hand smoke from her husband 2 years after he died. my mom has it now at 60. already sucking on oxygen a few times a day because her lungs cant pull enough out of the air. she has less than a hand full of years left. the oxygen itself will destroy what is left of her lungs with continued use. it is like taking poison to help with an injury that wold kill you now if you didnt take it.
thats two generations dying from the same stupidity.
really, good luck. your life depends on it.

I found that keeping an unopened pack around helped me. It was reassuring to know that if I really, really wanted one it was there.
If I didn't have any I would obsess over the fact that if an undeniable craving hit I couldn't do anything about it until I would finally run to the curb mart and chain smoke three on the way home.

Yeah...that doesn't work for me. If I have them, I smoke them.
I'm the same way. i recently stopped smoking too. Or, as I describe quitting, I just bum smokes off other people until they get pissed off and tell me to go buy my own. It took my wife about three days of my stealing hers to get to that point. Honestly, I didn't think 3 sticks in a week was enough to make a big deal over. Now I'm back to a pack a week.
Nexa, if it makes you feel any better, you're still over a year younger than I am. I mean, you're just turning thirty!
Which subsequently makes me feel like crawling into a grave.

one thing that you always have to remember... is that the ULTRA-cravings will come in waves.... eventually like a flame it will burn itself out.. and you will be fine again. If you are having the hard-core craving just remember to keep reminding yourself that it WILL pass.
yeah. After you light one up and inhale deeply.
I'm not helping, am I?
Good. Suffer alongside me bitches

Keep reminding yourself how much money you were spending on cigarettes that you will now be free to **** away on actually fun things.
You should quit more often if it brings Yan back.
Good luck, Nexa.
Mr. Ambrya quit about five years ago, right after we got back from Michigan.
I'm very glad he did it. After my stepfather's death from lung cancer (he was a lifelong smoker) about a year after Mr. Ambrya started quitting, I came home from the deathbed/funeral and told him he'd better not dare take it up again, because I was not going to watch him die that. Of course, then it turns out my stepfather's lung cancer was actually mesothelioma, likely due to asbestos exposure during his 30-some years in the auto factories, but I never let Mr. Ambrya onto that.
Occasionally in moments of high stress will have a few cigarettes, then quit again. He last smoked for a couple days the week Tristan was born--can't fathom why.
It took him a number of attempts to get where he has gotten, too. He also still uses the patch to curb cravings. I thought we were doing great until last year when he got turned down for the non-smoker life insurance rate. Turns out the physical turned up nicotine in his blood, and the refused to believe it was from the patch. Grrr...

I'm on the gum again...let's see if it sticks this time. Get it? Gum? Sticks?
Anyway, I'm going to be thirty in a couple of months and I don't want to be a thirty year old smoker. New Year's resolutions never work, so I'm getting it out of the way before the end of the month so I can proclaim my victory-in-progress when people ask me if I have a resolution.

Walk briskly if you need to smoke. You can do it. It's just the first few days that are tough. Also, being around smokers and quitting is incredibly tough. If Smash smokes, you need to kick him in the nuts if he smokes around you.
