Simply put, If you think you can't, you can't. You have already beaten yourself before you got started. Today is my quit date, and I KNOW that I can quit! I have 4 beautiful children and a wonderful girlfriend, none of which I am quitting for. I have found that when you quit for anyone but yourself, you usually fail. I am basically quitting cold turkey, which has not worked for me in the past mind you. However, after reading the book "You Can Stop Smoking", I have learned to take a closer look at myself and my reasons for smoking as well as my reasons for wanting to quit. I wish everyone here the best of luck and hope that I can be of any support. I know there will be times when I will be looking for the support of others.
