Quitting smoking is the hardest thing I've ever done! I smoked for 26 years and quit February 20th, 2010. I loved cigarettes. Everything I did revolved around them. "can I smoke if I go there?' "how long is the plane ride?". It was so rough! But, I had to tell myself everyday, I am worth it. I want to live a full life, see my kids grow up, and still be able to breathe! Just tell yourself, "I'm not a smoker anymore". It does help and it does get easier! Best of luck to you!
