It has been a long 25 days for me this time. I am not a normal smoker in that I only smoked a few cigarettes a day. I never have been a heavy smoker. I stop, I start, I stop, I start. I started when I was 18 years old and am now 63. I stopped the year after I started because of pregnancy in 1973 I started a while after my daughter was born. I stopped again in 1979 due to pregnancy and did not start again until 1997 when one of my closest friends lost her daughter. Then 3 more people close in my life also died so I kept on smoking (mostly, but quit for a couple of weeks here and there) until now. For the past almost 20 years I have mostly only smoked at home and kept it hidden from almost everyone. Only my husband, kids and grandkids knew that I smoked. I only smoked in the evening by myself at home, outside or in the garage. I was a closest smoker for almost 20 years. I am tired of hiding this ridiculous habit! I had a breakdown 3 days ago when my cat got ran over and killed. That was my excuse. I don't want to make excuses for smoking. I don't want to be a smoker at all. I want to be rid of this habit for the rest of my life. It is very hard to just say no! I know there will be people out there that will ridicule me for being such a wreck over this and being such a little bit of a smoke but it still means a lot to me to quit!
