I have been smoking a pack a day since early 1982. During the last few months (maybe 5) I have somehow cut it down to about 8 cigs a day. I am presently not using any aids. I have tried them all over and over. The only thing I haven't tried is inpatient treatment. I can't make that happen. This is the hardest thing I have had to change in my life as memory serves me. I have made big changes for the better and really want this big change to be done. I am tired, sick and tired of being sick and tired. Thanks to you all for being here. Cindy
