Well done! Keep it up - I quit on 20 January and am glad I did.
I found mobile phone games helpful for occupying my hands. |

Congrats ET, Buttercup, tinyrabbit! I have been smoke-free for five and a half years and so grateful for it too. After I sobered up there wasn't much of a point in continuing smoking anymore, but it was sure hard to let it go.

So good to read about folks getting away from smoking. I also quit early this year and was able to step down off nicotine in 8 weeks using the patch. I have felt better than I did during the whole 12 1/2 years that I smoked. Good riddance!
