Take a few moments and look at the positives of your quit.  I know I was very negative and I think that increased the difficulties I experienced quitting.  When we quit and the smoke screen clears - we see our addiction and all the lies smoking told us.  We see that all that we gave smoking credit for came from us - we did it ourselves and gave the sickerette credit for it.  Cannot speak for you but I hate at work when someone takes credit for things I do and yet for years I found it acceptable to allow the white tube to take credit for what I did.
I will never smoke again and I can say that and be happy.
Quitting is not always easy but it is doable.

 yet, here I am! Day 19. I was one of those people who figured I'd never be able to "give up" smoking. Let's be honest though... Are you really giving anything up? I certainly don't miss the nagging urge to run outside every 30 minutes to an hour, all day long. It's such a hassle.

I also don't miss feeling winded all day, nothing tasting/smelling right, absolutely no energy, spending a ton of money every month, yellow fingers... I could go on all day. I feel like I have so much more freedom. I'm actually happier now than I was as a smoker... It's still early in my quit so the charm might wear off. Who knows... Right now, I'm excited about my smoke free days :)

This is my quit. It's not much yet, but it's beautiful and I'm proud of it. I will protect it because it matters. I will not make excuses to smoke, no matter what. I won't have "just one" or a few puffs. Smoking doesn't help anything. It never has and it never will, and I'm not falling for the lies again. I love being a non-smoker!

Look at these numbers ;) ====> 18 days, 21 hours, 28 minutes and 44 seconds smoke free. 472  cigarettes not smoked.  $118.75  and 3 days, 14 hours of my life saved!
