Of the "nicodemon". It's been 5 days.
I think it's funny how if you tell people you quit smoking and they ask you how long it's been, and if it's been less than let's say 1 month or 1 year, they say "oh", like it's not long enough for you to have actually quit. I think if you've actually abstained from smoking for 1 whole day, you are allowed to say you've quit. It's the first day of reestablishing your rituals and breaking the old ones where you had to smoke after/before/during anything that you do. So if someone tells you that they've quit, and you ask them how long it has been and if they say anything over one day, believe them.
I've read "The Easy Way to Stop Smoking" by Allen Carr. The big points in the book that are helping me are 1. You are not giving up anything! 2. You are not giving up anything!
I still miss cigarette breaks, so I go "out" with the smokers, but don't smoke. :)

I have quit for a week before, but it didn't work out and I started again. I think I didn't really want to then. Also I was easily able to quit for Basic and AIT. That was for 6 months. I was fine. So I know once I start to quit I can actually do it. But I don't start til next month. (Smokers class) I will start taking Medication that blocks the Nicotene from getting to your brain. Eventually the cigs won't be doing anything for me.
I am so proud of you for quitting, so how long have you quit for so far??
YAY!!
