Quit smoking cigarettes 5 days ago. Last smoke was at 1am on 1 December, putting me at 120 hours quit. Am 30.5 yrs old, parents smoked, first official cigarette smoked at 11 (under a bridge with my middle school friends dave and mitch), smoked steady a pack a day at 14 (once my mom realized my brother was kicking my ass on a daily basis and she felt bad - thanks a lot mom....)

Just stopped. No pussy nicorette or gay e-cig or drugs. Cold turkey like a man's supposed to do it. No relapse yet but I do think about smoking a couple times a day.

I'm explaining this:

Which was that a big reason I started smoking was because my brother was beating the shit out of me every day because I was smoking. And my mom decided to let me smoke and tell my brother to lay off probably just to show him she was boss - yes I know its fucked up.

Your mom let you smoke so that your brother would stop beating you for doing so...
That is fuckin fail.

I don't think your brother was right to kick your ass, but his concern was well intentioned.

I guess you're still into pain by not taking nicorette.

It's only been 5 days, don't claim victory yet.

Good luck.

Your mom should have started to beat the crap out of you when she learned what you were doing.

congrats, bob! I just celebrated 5 years, and went cold turkey too, so it's do-able.

You're past the tough part now. The physical addiction should be, or already is, gone. Now it's the psychological addiction you have to quit. That little voice that tells you that a cigarette would taste oh so good right now, and only one won't hurt.

DON'T DO IT!! Because once you smoke one, you've put the demon nicotine back into your system, and that's a self-feeding habit, that constantly demands to be fed!! D:

Instead, just tell that little fucker to shut the hell up, then go do something constructive, until you get past the craving. The longer you go, the fewer times that sumbitch comes along to tease you, and the easier it is to flick that little bastard off your shoulder while he's whispering in your ear. ():)

And just think about the money you're going to save now! :D

Eh, wouldnt say the physical part is over quite yet- the nicotine may be out of his system by now, but that doesn't mean the receptors aren't screaming for it. For most, the physical w/d can last a week or 2.
As far as quitting CT...more power to ya if you can do it, but I suggest looking in to the medication if the irritability/headaches etc are causing slips...
And congrats =)
