ICL, so glad you threw them out. I am fairly new to this as well. What i have found that helps me is I made a fake cigarette and hold between my fingers about 90% of the day. LOL even stuffed it with cotton so inhaling more natural:) hang in there ,they keep saying "It will get easier". I do truly believe it will. Judi

Then you are doing great. Their are members here that have quit with smoking partners and have stayed smoke free, so it can be done.
What I may suggest, it you wear a rubber band around your wrist when you are home and when you are tempted give the rubber band a snap. I did that and it helped. SNAP OUR OF IT :eg:
You will do this, just believe and we are all here for you.
Keep the Quit

Good for you ICL! That was a big test! Every time you pass one of those tests, you get stronger and the junkie gets weaker!

No can do about a non smoking house! I rent and share and its a smoking house! So till I can afford to get my own place, which is a fair bit off, just gonna have to learn to deal with it! I should be used to it, I mean people smoke here every day, don't know why tonight was so bad.

Hey, thanks for your support. I had a 3rd party remove them from the building. All i have to say now is....
I AM A NICOTINE ADDICT. THIS IS A HORRIBLE ADDICTION BUT ONE THAT I AM DETERMINED TO BE FREE FROM. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS "JUST ONE".
