well here i am 68 days shy of my 2 year quit anniversary....i dont get those craves any more..i do get some psychological urges though.. but if i dont act on them they go away without too much of a struggle...sometimes if i see a cigarette just lying there my instict tells me to pick it up... but i am smnarter than that .. i just turn away from it so im not so tempted.. then the feeling goes away...

my biggest cop out was that i was tellling myself if i quit then i will get cancer....well friends .. i learned that if i dont quit i will get cancer if i do quit i still may get cancer  but the odds are higher that i i also can still get copd.emphasema,pnuemonia,if i continue... my body was screaming out ...STOP THIS MADDNESS...it was up to me to listen...

..so that at least for now i can breathe and not spend all my money on stupid stuff like cigarettes that only limit life not enhance it...

yeah i want to stay free from this addictiion...forever...

so hang in there, it is really worth it...
