I'm a quitter!        How old were you when you started?: 16 
How long did you smoke?: until I was 22 
What made you want to quit?: I got married and my fiance (now hubby) hates the smell of it 
What brand did you smoke?: Camel light, menthols were my fave 
Approx how many per day?: 8-10 
Do you still think about smoking? How often?: Now, mostly when I drink or when I get really pissed off or stressed out.   
I quit cold turkey (the best way to go, imo) in December of 2002. It was REALLY hard but I substituted things like coffee and candy when I had cravings. I broke down a time or two after I'd quit for at least a month.....and every time I'd let myself have like half a cigarete or whatever I justified.....it just wasn't the same.   
I still haven't found any vice to take it's place but I'm SO GLAD that I quit and I'm so much healthier and better off because of it!   
GOOD LUCK! YOU CAN DO IT!        |
