August 25th was my day.

Became and Ex August 25th,2008. Working on my second day of not smoking at all.
No patches, no gum, nothing. I really think this is the best way. Just need to totally rid ourselves of all the nicotine and poisons that have been polluting our brains for so long.As I see all the tobacco being harvested here in NC this week. I can finally say. Enough is enough. Good luck to all.
3.63 and counting

Awesome job Roger! I quit 16 days ago and I did it cold turkey as well. It can be hard, but ride the wave, it always crashes into the turf - so the cravings always crash too.

Way to go! I quit yesterday too! Doing it cold turkey as well. Its difficult b/c my roommate still smokes but we're working on it together... I'm hoping I'll inspire him to quit soon.

Maybe you could ask him to smoke outside. I'm sure he will understand.

my husband smokes also...in a way I figure I will be ready for the outside world of smokers, when I do go out...
But what use to get on my nerve when I was smoking was; there was no more places to smoke....now, finaly, it will work to my advantage!!
I think there is a forum for those who quit with partners who don't....?
Good luck Aloha
