How many times did it take you to finally quit? And how long have you quit for?
I’ve quit several times, but I LOVE those damned things! It is more of an emotional and mental attachment than a physical one.
Quit now for over a decade.
I quit altogether probably 5 times. Twice seriously.
I had gotten off them once, but fell off the wagon when I moved to a country everyone smokes, and guys are almost expected to smoke. I fell quite lamely for peer pressue, and didn’t really stand a chance after the very first puff.
I stopped again after returning stateside, and so far this time has worked.
Don’t miss it now. Even the one in my hand driving, on the stick shift.
My secret was - to stay out of bars for the first several months, completely.
