Yup, finally going to do it...im on day 2 now.

I quit on the 1st, broke down bought a pack, quit again on the second....same result, finally kicked it on the 4th...so im two days deep. I figured I could write a journal of my adventures with quitting smoking so everyone knows its not impossible to quit, Im doing it cold turkey...while working in a jail, while there is a hurricane out there....im stressed.

Symptoms of the day: Headache.....from the lack of smoking.
 
I quite just over 2 years ago. Best decision i ever made for sure. Cold turkey too. The trick is to NEVER cheat. Having an occasional cigarette keeps your body craving nicotine and makes it SO much harder. Good luck man, its not easy.
 
Yea, cheating leads to smoking a full pack in a few hours to make up for lost time.

i smoked for 3 or 4 years and a couple days after my son was born i threw out the ciggs i had and quit, i havent smoked for 6 months i feel so much better and now iam not lazy anymore and can actually do stuff lol dont start back up smoking was the worse and expensive habit ever
 
I quit smoking last year in April, one tip- stay away from friends that smoke. After about 3 or 4 months, I finally lost the urge, started hanging out with my smoking friends again and didn't even want one. After about 6 months without ciggz your gonna feel 10x better, trust me. Stick to it :bigthumbu
 
I never made it to 2 packs in one day unless i was going out to a club or something. Normally I'd smoke around 20ish cigarettes in one day. In the last couple months of me smoking I had increased the amount from 20ish to 30ish. I was disgusted in myself which was my motivating factor.
 
i have never smoked a single cigarette in my entire life and im so glad i never started

i can not take the smell of them either
 
Bro, im tired of waking up with nastey ass breath....feels like someone dumped an ashy tray in my mouth. My girl doesn't smoke, so that has to be hell on her, + I cough every time I laugh...and I love to laugh, shits embarassing.

My girl is really really behind me on this, her love and support helps a great deal. Every relapse I've had was always met with a "Baby, I know its difficult....youll get through it, just quit again"....damn I love her.
 
1 year 3 months for me, was about the same as tonymac, it's nice to be able to breath again and the extra money is nice. the hardest part was the action of smoking so I would play with a pen or something. Good luck, It gets easier after the second week.
 
I quit once before for 3 months on a bet with this girl I was seeing, she pissed me off on night so I went out an bought a pack of smokes and was like ahhhh yeah.. dumb ass me.
