Smoking Cessation
Related: About this forumPatch on, cigarettes soaked and tossed.
Let's do this thing!
I've been telling myself for months that I really don't enjoy smoking any more, I think that's a good sign that it'll stick this time.
I also can't wait for the patch dreams tonight. They tend to be pretty epic and cinematic.

I'm so proud I am taking care of my health. I too was not enjoying smoking anymore. Was the best thing I ever did for myself. Keep up that fight. You can do it!

(1,412 posts)physical and physiological addiction of cigarettes, this life long smoker has been smoke free for 6 mo. I will never go back.
I have also saved $600,00 approximately so far.
First two days into quitting, I was having a terrible craves, so I bought a nasty big cigar and took a couple puffs, wow, yuck! Have not lit up since then. I did not want to replace one drug with another addictive drug. Joe explains this in his video library of Quit Smoking.
Please read why he is against using drugs to help quit smoking, especially Chantix

I'll seek support if I need it, but honestly I don't think I need it yet. Wanting to quit is a powerful thing.
And my face already looks better.
