The cravings vs the smell

This is my first journal entry. I've never been good with putting my feelings into writing, so this is like public speaking to some. I've not put a cigarette to my lips in since February 5th. The struggle is still absolutely real. I have horrible cravings at times. Especially since I work in a very high paced medical facility, and I'm a wife, and mother, and do all the things. I've realized that when I have bad cravings, what helps me is to go stand near someone who has been smoking or stand near an ashtray. The smell to me is absolutely disgusting, where I no longer have the urge to pick up a cigarette. Anyone else disgusted over the smell so bad that it turns them off of ever wanting to smoke again?
