Carlos,
I had also been quit twice. both for 3 monthes. As far as I recall this time is the easiest. I think this is because I have better mentally prepared, and I continue to read other's experience through this site. I tell myself LOUDLY, SMOKING IS NOT AN OPTION!!! I keep my awarenes that I am in the process of the battle, and I have to win the battle.. minute by minute, day by day....

Dan,
your smoking history is almost similar to me (1%, and I smoke for 32 years). I have tried to quit 2 times before, and they are last only for 3 months each. Here I come again, and I found out that read this forum is really help. (last time I quit I was on my own).
I have cold turkey. The first day, I was pretend that I was very sick, and hopitalize (No one could smoke in the hospital, and they are all doing fine, right....). I stayed in bed, and doing alot of thinking about my smoking habit, and how grateful I supposed to be that I have no serious illness due to cig..... I ate alot of fruits, and doing nothing other than thinking and sleeping for 24 hours..., just in bed....
Here I am, 30 days past. I am still facing the challenge, waiting for the 3 monthes to come...
Take your time until you are ready, Dan.... , and We are waiting for you to share.....

Bobbi, I am so sorry to hear about your Dad. I know it is hard, and we are here for you. You are much stronger than me..... I gave up my second quit (around 3 months quit) when my mom got sick, and hospitalized..... Now I realize that's only my addicted side found an excuse to go back to cig slavery. Hope everything runnig well for you Bobbi.....

Wellcome Keliza... Yes, I was scared too before I started....
This time is my third time quit. But now, I am optimistics, this time is different..... Particularly because I stay tune with SSC (I was not in before)
As Phil said... I am frightened more by all of those consequences of being a nic slave....
and...
feel much better now...
