Advice for cigarette cravings

[nijinsky's fetlocks]

its all about how much you WANT to give up

101% on the money mate.
I don't smoke,but I do drink.
I could give up just like that,if I had the will to.
But I don't,which is why I will be in the pub in seven minutes time.

Actually,it was just Sunday morning,but it felt like 6 months.

I haven't read the rest of the thread but after 4 days you are no longer addicted to nicotine. You will not be suffering from withdrawal and any cravings are all in your head.

the physical cravings start to ease and get less frequent after 3 days but they take much longer to go away than a few days. I would say you're looking at 2-3 months.

4 days mate, I've done it. I used to smoke as many as I could possibly cram in a day for 25 years. I haven't touched one now for over 7 years.

I smoked for just 6 years and by day 5 I was feeling not too bad. Go at least a few weeks w/o drinking...and when you drink put yourself around people who don't smoke...till you get used to drinking and not smoking. Eventually you'll be put off by the smell of cig smoke, so don't give in.
