Smokey, You seem to be very positive in wanting to quit - and you can do it! Stress is a part of life, and smoking does not help any, but just adds to the tension. You are adding just one more thing - the desire to quit with your added burdens. Rest, and realize the ride is bumpy, but not undoable - and yes, it is a little scary, but so are many other things which we feel much better after we have completed them. Don't look at the pain - feel the joy! Don't focus on the intensity of the crave - feel your body healing! You can do this!!!!

I don't know what advice to give you Smokey. You seem to be torturing yourself by bumming cigs. I only know that it won't get any better if you keep smoking, and yes you are going to have to go thru a bit when you quit. But you are going to have make this decision for yourself. Choose the best. Good Luck :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/5/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 38 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 961 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $400.9 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 4 [B]Hrs:[/B] 15 [B]Mins:[/B] 26 [B]Seconds:[/B] 51

Smokey We are praying for you. We will be here for you when you are ready to quit. Just remember that there will always be stress in your life and that smoking does not help that, it actually adds to the stress. Wishing you the best of luck and hoping to hear back from you soon that you have quit and are ready for this. Let us know if we can help in the meantime. :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/1/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 42 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,058 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $210 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 4 [B]Hrs:[/B] 11 [B]Mins:[/B] 36 [B]Seconds:[/B] 58
