I finally did it!!
what really made the difference for me was an iron clad support system, someone who shut down all of my attempts to give in and didn’t take any of my excuses.
the first 2 months were miserable but now I feel so much healthier and so much better about myself (before I always felt guilty for not being able to quit).
good luck everyone: you guys can do it!!

okay, so i’m trying it again…
i had escalated to a consist pack a day for a few months and my friends were so tired of hearing me say ooh i dont wanna smoke anymore or ooh i wish i would quit. and then 2 days ago i put the patch on. it helps ALOT but it is still so hard. now i cant reach for a ciggarette when i am dissatisfied or stressed about something. i think thats the hardest part and taking smoking out of your life is like removing a crutch out from under you..or at least it is for me.
i hope that one day all you guys and me too can look at a cigarette and be disgusted because as of right now i am constantly chewing on anything i can find and damn its sooo hard but we can do it!!

i hate when moments that you feel like you’ve completely beaten it are followed by a regression into old habits. :-/
