I am ready to quit!!!!

[kweenofharts]

Hi, I have smoked for 16 years.  I am ready to quit.  I smoke appx a pack a day of American Spirits.  Sometimes I smoke less.  I have already mastered not smoking in the mornings, I usually don't have one til about 12 noon.  What is the most effective way to QUIT? I really don't want to use a product to help me.

Good luck, good luck, good luck!! I recently quit and am already starting to breathe better and sleep better and cough less! I am still miserable and still have those moments of OH MY GOD I WANT A SMOKE SO BAD, but they are getting less and less and fewer and farther in between. I went cold turkey... whatever you decide to do, please feel free to email me if you need help or support and just someone to tell you it is okay to be irritated by everyone in the world!!

Congratulations on your decission to quit!
It's hard to make a suggestion on a method....it's up to the individual, but if you decide to quit "cold turkey" then log onto:
whyquit.com and read, read, read. You can even join their little clique.
I imagine this is the best way to do it, but I wasn't that strong and I used Chantix.

What ever you decide to do, keep us posted. This board and the people on it are very supportive : )
Good luck!
