I Quit Day 1

I have just smoked by last cigarette and was looking around online and stumbled upon this page, so I thought I would write.  I have finally decided that I am tired of quit attempts. Buying a pack, smoking a few, quitting for a day and a half and starting all over again.  I am tired of worrying about my health...which only makes the urge to smoke worse...go figure. I am tired of being tired. I am tired of feeling run down all the time...I am tired enough to know I will stay quit this time. Over the past few years I have read Allen Carrs book several times and done much research on nicotine addiction...it is interesting...it just truly struck me a couple days ago what a mean trick nicotine is and that I don't know what it is like to have a day as an adult that isn't filled with anxiety because of nicotine withdrawal.   It was a feeling, not a knowledge thing..  I have understood this concept for some time, but it is like it actually sunk in.   I am an extremely stubborn person and have known that I have to be in the right mindset to quit..  I believe I have finally found it..  Enough rambling...here I go.  Thanks for listening.
