Easy for someone to say, who is less years old than the total number of years I\'ve smoked.

sorry to hear about your friend, Jim

please don\'t give up on quitting, though.

yesterday was rough for both of us, but we made it through without smoking--- hopefully, today will be even easier!

Everyday you go without is a big victory.
Spoil yourself in other ways for staying strong.
Don\'t listen to non-smokers who don\'t understand the achievement! You know, those "2 days?!? big **** deal I\'ve gone my whole life" idiots. (I\'d still love to smack the **** out of some of those people).

It does get easier (I smoked for 11 years). Those torturous sessions of wanting one so bad you could scream do serve a purpose. Those nasty cravings are temporary.

7 months for me, and I finally dropped the cigars too.

I quit twice using commits, they definitely get ya past the cravings and outta the routines associated w/ smokes.

but like an idiot, after close to a year w/out nicotine, I would start again for some dumb reason.

why does something bad have to be so good?

Best of luck, beat that sweet nicotine. Your money and health will thankyou.
