I don't think time sleeping counts.

not me. I started (foolishly) when I was 14 or 15. It was shortly there after that I quit doing sports.

Sleeping or passed out?

Take every day as it comes. Don't quit on quitting. The cravings will always be there and crop up when you least expect.

Been smoke free 18 months now probably will always be hard work. But I feel better for it.

what do you mean by "allways be there" Will I "allways" want a cig? It's been since monday morning for me and I kinda want one right now because I'm drinking. Earlier today I was fine except when my kids were acting up in the car, I REALLY wanted one then. GAWD I WISH I NEVER STARTED!

Zyban worked wonders for me.

No mate but for me even 18 months on I get the occasional craving. Certain situations or times. They go after a bit but they pop up and annoy me sometimes. I just chew gum instead. I have a supply of that nicotene gum if they realy bad but I haven't used that stuff in months. It will get easier.

FWIW,

The cesation class I go to says chewing is harder to quit because you get more nicotine. When I played sports I'd cut down on smoking by chewing (skoal strait and kodiac wintergreen were my favorites). The only way I could quite chewing at all was to start smoking more. (or swallow a huge plug on purpose in order to turn green and throw up all night)

GL to you too.

skyprancer is proof that you don't need the brain lazer part to quit.. he did it on his own and as you can see... is still able to suck.
