Having had family members with nicotine addiction, I give NOTHING but major kudos to those who have successfully quit.
New Years day past was 4 years for me. Sometimes I smell cigarette smoke and it chokes the life outta me. Other times it smells like the finest cologne. It is the toughest thing I ever quit. Nothing but Double Ammonia (on purpose) could get me to quit or keep me from starting. I just pull that memory upon the mental screen when I'm tempted. When we got to Florida and I saw $5.00 a pack I started thinking Hmmmm, maybe. Not for today anyway.
