Hi, I smoked my last one this morning. I smoked more than 20 years, and it became a part of my life. I smoked in company, on my own, while working, between things, for pleasure and because of stress. Shortly: always. the last yearI recognized my addiction, I wanted stop, but very often I did not remember my decision after a couple of hours or a day. What can I do with this kind of forgetfullness? The last week I was cutting down to 10 cg a days, instead of a whole pack. That was already a constant concentration. I managed not to smoke outside of my home. This morning I had the feeling, I am on the edge - tired of counting - thus very easily could go back to the old scheme. I do not want that. I know it will be difficult - and I also know I will learn a lot about myself - and I have to accept my craving and my weakness. Accept and wait ... But knowing and doing is not the same in my case... How can you act on the basis of willpower - when you do not have it yet? The last 10 days I was also visiting this forum, and the presence of everyone gave me the courage to stop - You already helped me a lot - My main motivation actually is - that I do not want to spend any time any more thinking on nicotine. (shall i smoke or not - and when? this kind of very important questions:) I know the first days of quitting you are forced to think of it, even more - thanks for everyone.

Hi everyone - reading the post here, it has a strange effect - my craving is much less, when I am with you:) fine - that has to be. Thanks for your answers - it makes me a little stronger for a while, at least:) - anyway I managed not to buy any cg-s today - an here is already evening - as I am in Europe - but came a little voice - surely dont want to buy? Why not make it easy? Is addiction going once. But thanks for the advice, I will try to stick it for today:) Parola. ps I still not manage to open file, which i am downloading, I am at this moment not able yet to send personal messages.

Hi Parola, Welcome aboard on your first offical "Quit Day". You are very right, It will be very difficult. And if you are like me, the first week it was on my mind constantly to fight off wanting a smoke. My mind would not me forget that I was quitting smoking. Good luck to you, and were all here for you!

Hey Parola... It sounds like your doing good this morning... :) Not only do we have to get rid of the nicotene in our systems, the really hard thing for me to do is breaking the habits associated with smoking. You are not alone in this battle.

Hey Parola, You can and will deal with it, hang in there! That first day is soooooo tough. One minute at a time Parola, thats what it takes. Get through day one, then get ready to tackle day 2. You are about 6 or 8 hours later than me.

Hey Parola, I hear what your saying... having a smoke is always there, usually first and foremost. What I did Parola, was I thought about why I quit in the first place. Once I got that focus, it didn't make it any easier for me mind you, but it did help me not light one up. ANYTHING that keeps you positive and not smoking, I.E. Friends, Family, Pets. Did you ever figure out how to use your Instant Mess.?

Parola, You are doing great! Day 1 is almost over. I know I spent a lot of days sleeping and crying. Somehow these go together with quitting. You will get through it! We are here for you! ;p [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/5/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 24 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 740 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $78.48 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 23 [B]Mins:[/B] 40 [B]Seconds:[/B] 16
