Hello All,
  I am jackie, 26. I have been smoking since I was about 15. For some reason I decided yesterday that I was going to quit. I had this werid feeling in my stomach that just made me want to do it. I have no kids, no husband, nothing. I am doing this for myself. I hope I can quit by September 15th. Please give me any help on how to control cravings and deal with any withdrawal symptoms. Thanks!

Thanks Jodi and webslave and everyone else for the words of encouragment. My quit date is now just under 2 weeks away and although I am somewhat nervous as I stated before as the days pass I get more and more excited in a way. I see alot of people on here doing so well and I cant wait for that to be me.

So, 19 days until my quit date. So far so good. I cut back from a pack a day to 15 a day. Next week we'll see how I do with 10 a day. I figure if I can strategically get rid of all of my worst trigger smokes then I can beat the boredom ones with relative ease. The Zyban has really helped curb the cravings and actually are making them taste like crap, more and more everyday. Maybe I won't even get to my quit date. Here's hoping.

My quit date is Sept. 1st.
  I had over a year quit and let my emotions get the best of me and lit up.
DUMB, DUMB, DUMB of me!
  What was I thinking? I WASN'T thinking. I stopped caring for that moment in time.
HERE I GO AGAIN............

Last year on my birthday, Sept 3, I took my last drink. This year I will celebrate a year's sobriety by smoking my last little cigar, which have insidiously. replaced a 30 year cigarette habit. We should have "coins", like AA, to remind us of our decision.
