State of mind to quit is all one needs. I still recommend this book that was recommended by McBeck. This book helped my wife and I quit. For the cost to purchase from Amazon...it is worth every penny. (order through SS )

http://www.amazon.com/Easy-Way-Stop-.../dp/1402718616

Over two years in the non-smoker category. It feels great. It feels even better when you finally have control over the ball and chain of cigarettes.

Buy the book. Free yourself of the physical and financial burden of cigarettes.

Newest addition to those kaleuns who don't foul up a convoy attack beacuse of a cigarette glow. One and half week without cigarettes and finally I'm feeling better

Smoked 17 years, pretty much half of my life, some 1 pack a day.

Good show sir! You will feel better physically and mentally because you conquered nicotine!

Gave up a two pack a day habit many years ago, cold turkey. I came to realise that smoking is quite literally a habit. Think about the times you "automatically" smoke: get a cup of coffee, light a cigarette; start to talk on the phone, light a cigarette; finish a meal, light a cigarette; have a drink, light a cigarette, and so on. By becoming more aware of the interactions caused by habit, it is easier to break the cycles. It is sort of like asking yourself "Why am I really doing this?" and realising there is no real good or logical reason. I hope this helps...

Thanks for support dudes.

I probaply extend my life for 5 to 10 years.

Best of all I will save the price of one cigarette pack daily. That's 5.40 euros here in taxman's paradise a.k.a Finland. It buys me a long trip away from the freeze.

I had similar thoughts. My brain still gives these latent messages after for example dinner that it's time to smoke.

Well I according to people already quitted, I have couple weeks of hell ahead

Still cheaper than the cost of a pack here in the UK

I thought only Switzerland and Norway would beat our price. Well doesn't matter anymore.

Obltn once it hits around 2-3 weeks the cravings get really bad, push through that though and after a week or two more they'll start getting less and less.
