Congrats. Stay strong and keep at it. It's been over a year since I quit and it feels awesome. Whenever you get the cravings just think to yourself that you ARE in control. It works. I'm applying the same mental challenge technique when I went veggie recently (due to health issues).Comment

Come back in 72 hours and repeat the same words. Once your body is nicotine free, then you will be able to say that you quit. After the first 72 hours, all you need to do is never take another one.Originally posted by TurboAngelI got up today and quit.

I've heard from many ex-smokers over the years that week #3 is the roughest for some reason. If you can beat that dreaded week 3 you're there.... just use that damned stubborn willpower and never take another drag.
Always love to see another smoker become an ex-smoker :DPromote Wildmatch, ImLive, Sexier.com, and more!!

Yeah, and every year near summer time. I quit 4 years ago and I still get some extremely low cravings right before summer time. But it doesn't last long and it's only one or 2 times a year.Originally posted by CDSmith

Way to go. I quit 9+ years ago, cold turkey from 2 packs a day.
Best thing I ever did.Comment

don't break this new habit

I quit almost 2 years ago cold turkey from 2 packs a day for 7 years, there are no "3 weeks and you are safe" you will need to resist temptation for the rest of your life, it does get easier as more years pass by.
Also since it is a habit you will find a replacement for it whenever you feel like smoking and it will most likely be food. You will gain some weight, i gained around 20 pounds but it was much needed weight anyway. When you have been without smokes longer than what you have smoked you can consider yourself "safe".
Good luck.

Nicotine free right off the bat? Are you crazy? Do you know the mood swings and withdraws shes going to go through without some sort of help?? When I quit a few years ago the patch helped greatly, I used one of the lighter doses and used it a little over a week, just to get over that hump. It really helped and I recommend anyone trying to quit to use it, Why make it harder on yourself trying to go cold turkey? The mental addiction is hard enough to battle.Originally posted by NoCarrierComment

To many, cold turkey conjures up visions of torturous pain, suffering and general drudgery. In fact, it is easier to stop smoking using the cold turkey method than by using any other technique. Cold turkey induces less suffering and creates a shorter period of withdrawal. Most important, cold turkey is the approach by which the smoker has the best chance of success.
Smokers must recognize that they are drug addicts. Nicotine is a powerfully addictive drug. Once the smoker has smoked for a fairly long time, the body requires maintenance of a certain level of nicotine in the bloodstream. If this level is not maintained, the smoker will experience varying degrees of drug withdrawal. The lower the level, the greater the intensity. As long as any nicotine remains in the bloodstream the body will keep craving its full complement. Once the smoker quits, the nicotine level will eventually drop to zero and all physical withdrawal will cease. Cravings for an occasional cigarette may continue, but this is due to past psychological conditioning and not to a physical dependence.
Cutting down on cigarettes or use of nicotine replacement strategies throws the smoker into a chronic state of drug withdrawal. As soon as the smoker fails to reach the minimum requirement of nicotine, the body starts demanding it. As long as there is any nicotine in the bloodstream, the body will demand its old requirement. Smoking just one or two a day or wearing a patch which is gradually reducing the amount of nicotine being delivered will result in the smoker not achieving the minimum required level, creating a chronic state of peak drug withdrawal.
This state will continue throughout the rest of the smoker's life unless one of two steps is taken to rectify it. First, the smoker can stop delivering nicotine altogether. Nicotine will be metabolized or totally excreted from the body and the withdrawal will stop forever. Or, the smoker can return to the old level of consumptions accomplishing nothing.
Therefore, cold turkey is the method of choice. Once the smoker stops, withdrawal will end within two weeks. If you smoke, we can help you over this crucial period of time. Once it is past, you can rest assured that you will never need to smoke again. Then, to stay off you will simply need to remember to Never Take Another Puff!

good point. many people try and fail to quit.. sure try going cold turkey but if you fail perhaps give nicotine replacement a go, it'll allow you to tackle the addiction in stages that are easier to manage. nicotine addiction is not a simple thing and it's different for everyone.Originally posted by MickeyGComment

blah blah blah.. whatever I disagree. For me it was alot easier to quit with the patch. I didnt do what they're saying about weaning yourself off any of that stuff so none of that really applies. The nicotine I was getting from the cigarette was replaced by the patch. That left me just the mental habit to break. I found it alot easier to break my mental habits (after meals, with a drink, etc) without having to deal with the withdrawls. After about a week I didn't even need the patch or anything else I just quit.
I quit on my first try after smoking for about 14 years.
Some people have the will power to go cold turkey, others don't.

and since you like quotes:
statistics show that up to 95 per cent of smokers who try to quit cold turkey will not succeed. Smokers who seek therapeutic assistance while quitting smoking can double their chances of success.
Those who only rely on willpower to stop smoking have a high relapse rate: about 25 per cent of those who quit cold turkey relapse after 48 hours, with the relapse rate rising to more than 60 per cent by two weeks after their quit-date. It is estimated that only 2.5 per cent to five per cent of smokers who quit on their own will remain abstinent for one year.
People who attempt the cold turkey approach suffer severe withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, frustration, anxiety, and restlessness. Moreover, triggers lead to intense cravings that often overwhelm the smoker making them feel like failures when they smoke. Repeated failures may discourage them from even attempting to quit in the future.
"Smokers shouldn't be expected to quit smoking cold turkey," adds Dr. Selby. "In fact, studies have revealed that smoking is an addiction that for some smokers is harder to quit than heroin or cocaine. Using a therapeutic aid - like a nicotine replacement therapy, or NRT - in combination with counselling and social support is a great way to quit smoking and make it less stressful."Comment
