waywardwind,
I did the exact same sort of thing...I only thought about getting through the next 5 minutes. The idea of never ever having a cigarette ever again seemed entirely too daunting when I decided to quit, so I took it in 5 minute increments.
I won't smoke for 5 minutes.
(5 minutes later) I won't smoke for 5 minutes.
(5 minutes later) I won't smoke for 5 minutes.
and now it's 6 1/2 weeks since I quit! ;p
You're doing great - congrats on 9 healthy days!!
