Hi den,
I just brought up, or bumped, a post about a man named Lindsey. His SSC name was Bubba and his is quite the underdog story for quitters [url=http://sg.stopsmokingcenter.net/support/viewmessages.aspx?forum=8&topic=37459&ForumName=Introduce%20Yourself!&TopicTitle=Be%20Encouraged%20by%20Bubba's%20Story]Be Encouraged by Bubba's Story[/url]. Truly, if he could stay quit - anyone can!
You've gotten great advice. Try to get excited about your new life. Spend these last days as a smoker seeing cigarettes for what they really are. As the smoke gets in your eyes, on your clothes, in your hair think of all the things you hate about smoking. Most of them will be gone within the first few days!
Put together a list of why you want to quit and the benefits you are looking forward to. It helps solidify things when they are in writing.
Read all you can here and other sites, the more prepared you feel the more excited you'll get. We all got where we are one day, one minute and one cigarette at a time and so can you :)
All the best
