    I've never tried smoking, as I watched my grandmother on an oxygen pump due to smoking induced emphysema and the image never went away. I never understood why other family members continued to smoke when they had seen it too, but the fact was no matter how much I nagged/cried/yelled they needed to decide for themselves.

    Some of them since have stopped and they were like you: they decided they were not going to be smokers anymore. Ditch the hopefully, you have made a decision. Every time you struggle, think of the better health, nicer smell, more money etc etc. Ask the forums for encouragement. I don't know you but if I can help in any way at all to prevent a living hell for someone else then I will. Good luck. You don't need luck though, it's just determination now. Stay strong (( ))

    My bf went to visit family out of state until monday or tuesday and my kids are with a friend staying the night until monday, and there;s noone here but me. Nothing to bug me but my own mind during the days the nicotine is still in me is why I chose now even though I still have 2 unopened packs in the freezer. Will tell my bf to trade them for his when he gets back because I don't need them.

    I watched my grandma suffer from emphasema too and she didnt quit until 2 days before she died because she couldnt breathe enough to smoke them. I refuse to hold onto them that long.

    Hi. I quit four years ago on St. Patrick's Day. Like others have said, I hate the smell of smoke left on clothes, can't stand to get the smell of it in my hair. I had quit when I was pregnant, but this time I just have not had the desire to smoke, not even when socially drinking.

    Good luck, be strong. Will power...mind over matter.
