Today marks six months smoke-free, cold turkey. So glad I didn't go the route of chantix/gum/lozenges etc. In my eyes, I was way better off breaking my ties with nicotine as soon as possible rather than spreading out the misery. I know this isn't for everyone, but it's the only way that's worked for me (I had tried before with the use of aids, and didn't last more than a month or so). Whatever method you choose, best of luck. If I can do it, you can! I fell a gazillion times better now (physically and spiritually) than I did when I was puffing down nearly a pack a day. Good riddance, I don't need them.
