I can see that. I mean in your first year it's all about the challange of making it to the next day but after the second year you've had so much time to adjust.
I also believe the length of the struggle depends on how you view smoking. Back when I viewed smoking as a great thing that I was giving up I could have gone for years and still wanted one because I thought I was missing out. This time around I viewed smoking for what it was, a drug that put my brain off balance so I would have to inhale nicotine to make myself feel balanced. Now that I have figured that out this time around wasn't near as much of a struggle as my other attempts because I knew that all I had to do was wait it out and eventually the nicotine receptors would die and the normal receptors would return and I would be normal again. Well as normal as I can be I guess. lol. Just food for thought.
I do believe that perception is key here.
