I think if you remove the word "fight" you will see that it is not so terrible after all. Yes, folks who are quit for a long time sometimes do pick up a smoke and start all over - but don't think that they have all been fighting the whole time. It is not an irrisistible longing or craving to have a smoke after a while, it is sheer stupidity. We can list all the excuses we want and all the pressures and all the problems but nothing, and I mean NOTHING can drive a person to smoke again. If they do faulter, I sincerely believe it is because they have been waiting and hoping for a reason to blame it on. I probably sound like a really obnoxious know-it-all, and I am sorry if I do, but really, after the inital fight is over and the comfortable space is reached, there is no valid reason to ever turn back. That is my humble opinion, be it right or wrong. Stop worrying about the future, it will take care of itself quite nicely. It is so natural to be smoke free for me now and I truly believe I will never, ever smoke again and that makes me so happy. I know you will reach that stage to if you just have faith in yourself and let it happen. Cheers.
