Outstanding job! I quit cold turkey as well 4 years ago on Dec 24th. This was one of the best things I ever did for me, myself and I! And for those of you fighting for it, I know how hard it is, but your already one step closer! You can do it!!3

4 and 1/2 years for me and could never see myself doing it much less going back. Cold turkey for me also. Anyone trying to quit it's not easy. Somehow I got lucky will willpower or something. I put my mind into something else. Something that was going to be way more fun and long term and it worked.3

I started when I was 13 years. Probably my first serious attempt to quit was made when I was 19-20 years old. Thirty years later I finally made it!5

Well done, I quit 5 years ago September gone, used the tablets for the 1 st month and then I was on my own, it's not easy and I still go out 'for fresh air' when I'm having a few drinks but I know if I had a puff I'd be straight back on them1

Congratulations! I've cut down, a lot, so far.2

One thing that helped me in the early days, I smelled a smoker! Two females who smoked walked in front of me. OMG, they were rank of stale tobacco smoke! I never knew how bad it smelled!1

Congratulations everyone! I smoked for many years but thanks to e-cigarettes I'm now smoke free. I gradually cut back until I was only smoking in the car and now I'm completely off "fire cigarettes". True I do need my vaporizer, but even that I am trying to reduce. I'm using nicotine patches and gradually lowering the nic content in my vaporizer. My goal is to be completely free of nicotine dependence, I hope I can do that within a few months.
Running is my main motivator, I'd say, and of course the cost of cigarettes.
Now... if only I could get my mom to quit. She's under a lot of stress having just lost her husband and smoking is her way of getting away from it all. Still, I really would like her to quit because of the effects on her health.2 -

I know what you mean. It makes me sick when I smell cigarette smoke now.
