Good goin N2, I had 4 days no smokes but could not sleep at night day 3 and 4 for some reason. had 2 smokes yesterday and 1 today. Most the guys at work smoke and it really tempts me for some reason. Not sure how long it takes for the physical addiction to leave. Guess I should look that up somewhere. Steve

Wow, a lot of good inspiration on this thread. 

When I realized that the smokes companies really did want me addicted and they knew that their product was designed and honed to a razor edge to hook me I KNEW I was a quitter.  I have had lapses here and there, I still have a good cigar around a campfire or out catfishing.  If I have a half dozen stogies in a year it is unusual.  One of the things that has helped me is my AD/H...oooh, look, something shiney!  Where was I?  Oh yeah, short attention span thingy.  When the craving comes on strong (and it is over 10 years I think since I really quit) I know I am fine if I can make it 10 minutes.  Just 10 skinny little minutes are enough for the craving to pass.

My brother-in-law was at the house talking about his cancer and when he quit smoking, I had the facts wrong in my above post.

He actually quit 34 years ago when he was 39 not in his 50s like I stated. Is his lung and throat cancer related to his smoking? No way to tell, but he thinks it is and his doctors tell him it is a possibility.
