This is a tough one. The only reason I kicked Smoking was I got a really bad flu and was down for 3 days. My son was like 7 at the time and was just busting my backside to quit smoking for that whole year. This kid says to me "You haven't smoked in 3 days why smoke now?" Who could argue with that Logic? The reality is I was over that first 72 hour hump that is so hard.

In New years 2015 my cousin said I refuse to smoke or vape in 2016 or beyond. He's been chewing the gum for 6 years but vaping and smoking were tearing him up. That's how he stopped.

After I got clean smoking drove me crazy because I was so addicted. It controls you whole life in many ways. Good luck to you!

I stopped smoking 5 years ago, and I smoked for more than 11 years around half a pack everyday. I think I understand the difficulty of stopping. It is a difficult endeavor. I found it really helpful to do the same activities as with smoking, but avoiding smoke. Meaning, I still go out a couple of times like if I was going to smoke, just to get away from work for some minutes. I also still roll down the window of the car like if I was going to smoke. I found that I enjoyed this activities more than the cigarettes that accompanied them.
