My Mom got me some NRT in the form of Transdermal Nicotine Patches. If cigarettes were all I was ever addicted to, I think I can do this. And I am sure that cigarettes were all I was ever addicted to. This should just be mind over matter. I think I have to exclaim to someone that I was only ever addicted to nicotine because the doctors scum up all this enigma that I was addicted to tons of things. So I'm just gonna quit it.

Thanks! I need all the encouragement that I can get because this is hard for me. With a really good look at all of my loved ones, I can tell they all want me to quit this thing. They all seem to say, "You cansay no, and it's not that difficult." Some even offer advice. And it's a grand old time.

I am thinking that it is time to get serious about this thing. I want to make my parents happy, so it's time to do this. It should be more simple than I think it is. It cannot be as difficult as I think it is. I'm gonna try this seriously.

I believe that I am going to be thinking much more clearly and like I like once I get away from these things. I will form my thoughts and words so much more clearly. And that is number one actually on my list of "I need to quit because..."

My last cigarette was just less than 24 hours ago. This is easier than I expected. I only had about three cravings and they went mildly like, "Think about me and wish you could run out to the gas station and get some."

I quit on November 21, 2021. I did though go back for two packs about two weeks into it. I’ve only had mild to none of the cravings. Even when I gained about 40 lbs, I did not want to cease the quit. I am thankful that I could choose to stay alive one more day at a time quickly into my life. I am only 29 and made the biggest win for me. I am most likely not going back for a single second. I am so thankful I am through with this. My family is too. I will always be grateful for the fact I wanted to take it easy on myself.

It was the best thing I ever did. To quit the cancer sticks. They were the obvious life-sucker for me. I am going to thank my parents for supporting me soon. I wish I could give them the time back for making it easy for me to do it. I am grateful that the cigarettes only took up about 9 years of my life. That seems like it's not much but the way it was certainly was not worth it. So for that I have to thank my parents for their energy and hard work.
