Good for you! I'm quitting too. I have been for a month. It is nerve-wracking, but it is so worth it. I can smell again. People I love are proud of me after I have given them so much to feel bad about. I have more time and energy. I love it.
Be sure to use your patches. I cheat sometimes and it is always on days I forget to use them. One thing I am doing different is I am allowing myself to fail once in a while. I have a ciggie but I don't beat myself up. I figure if I have one now and then, it's still a huge improvement from chain-smoking. Of course, it's not okay, but it doesn't discourage me. I know that if it did, I'd just buy another pack and give up altogether because that is how I'm wired. I hope I was able to help you out. Hang in there. It's rough, but it really does get better!
