I smoked at least a pack a day for over 10 years and put them down about 7 years ago. Haven't even held one in my hand since. Without a doubt, the most difficult thing I've ever done. I no longer have physical cravings but occasionally I'll still have that social/psychological craving. Not sure that will ever go away after smoking for so long. But I now detest cigarette smoke and hate nothing more than a smoke-filled bar.

Congrats on quitting...best thing you'll ever do for your health. And the need to have one will gradually decrease as the days/weeks/months go by. I regret ever starting in the first place but at least I quit at a relatively young age and have hopefully got my lungs back to normal by now.

My dad quit smoking 34 years ago and still gets a craving now and then.

Thanks. I will never smoke again.

Congrats ThePresence.
I tried to quit chewing snuff, but it's a bitch. I quit drinking over two years ago, that was easy in comparison.

I don't know about snuff, but cigarettes wasn't easy either. I just told myself to fvck it and be a man. Sure I want a cig but I constantly tell myself that I'm stronger than the urges. And that itself MAKES me stronger. I will not cave in to the urges.

:thumbsup:

Keep it going Pres - you have shown you have the willpower! I'm pulling for you dude!

and er - don't have a cigar...

 

[DrumminBoy]

I've only been smoking for a year and I know that its now or never if I'm going to quit...I'm gradually weening myself off the habit, smoking ultra-lights and only 5 or 6 a day...hoping I can completely quit soon...congrats man

 

[Scarpozzi]

My dad caught me smoking when I was 14......luckily, he pulled me away from the fire and put me out in time.

 

[Blieb]

I smoked for about 6 years ... bout a pack a day ... I quit 2 1/2 years ago. You should check out the counter at http://www.silkquit.org. I used it.

Don't listen to the guy who said the cigar thing. It's like alcoholism, you can't quit vodka and have a beer.

Anyways ... 2 years later and I won my division in the Florida State Championship mountain bike races ... w00t!

I'm thinkin' my lungs are healin' just fine!
