26. That is the lung of a person who died from emphysema.
Just keep looking at it to remind you, it's not worth it!
I know how hard it is, I used to smoke too! :hug:

I am a respiratory therapy student and I see people dying,in misery, all the time-all for cigs. It will get easier, I promise!

My best advice? Wash EVERYTHING! Your curtains, linens, clothes, etc. Get rid of the smell, that definitely helped me!

Hang in there :)

29. No!
I quit, cold turkey, no patch or gum... Lets see, it'll be 7 years ago in May.
The first 3 weeks was awful, insomnia, leg cramps and boy was I a super bitch. I chilled out after a while though, craved a cig often for the first 6 months, so I sucked on loads of lolly pops. That helped, as did the pipe I'd hit when it got really bad. :smoke:
Good luck, you can do it! It's a nasty habit and it makes you smell bad. :P

39. Repeat after me

"I am content to be a non-smoker."

Say it over and over. Night and day. When you are in the shower. When you are falling asleep. As you first wake up.

I started doing that 9 months ago and haven't touched nicotine in any form since then. No patch, no drugs, no problems. 9 months clean. And that was after trying 3 or 4 times a years for at least the last 40 years. This is the first time I've gone past 2 weeks clean, and I have no doubt that I will NEVER go back. Why am I so sure this time? Because I am content to be a non-smoker.

Now repeat after me, "I am content to be a non-smoker."

Say it.

I'm serious! It does work.

Say it loud. Say it proud. Say it softly to yourself. Do it any way you want, just SAY IT!

40. I feel your pain, I really do
I'm on day 8. Broke down & bought a pack on the way home. But I just can't bring myself to actually open it & take one out.

The pack is mocking me, and I hate to be mocked. I will be donating it (yes, the WHOLE THING) to a smoking friend tomorrow at work.

Stay with it. You can do it. I can do it. It sucks to do it, but we can!!! :hug:
