This kept him in the mindset of "I'm better then smoking, I don't need to." instead of "I need a cigarette right now, but I can't have one.." cause that always led him back to smoking.Big MD wrote:in the meantime my parents were at theyr vacation.

i know, he meant it good and wanted to make me smile, so i took it to not disappoint him. now i have a 10pack cigs lying around on my table and it makes me wana smoke again (it's because i allways have them around me).
Good job for quitting, man.I'm still working on quitting myself :/
the first 3 days are hard. the rest seems easy if you just start to think different. i use to drink coffee after a meal, which i never did before. instead of smoking when angry chewing a gum helps too.
isolate yourself the first 3 days, that helped a lot. i was working at home and just tryed to not have contact with anyone who could possibly smoke.
the hardest part of it is, beeing remembered of good times you had during smoking, or where you used it as consoltation. it's like we all had to learn that we can't drink a beer, dance, talk to a girl and smoke at the same time anymore.
