I think being ready makes all the difference. Might of been the 6wks of oxygen that helped as well. When we quit smoking, we have to get used to oxygen running through our veins again...maybe you just got a head start?
Congrats to you again, RadioAstronomyObserver!
Smokers always had to go outside on the front porch to smoke and the only time I'm exposed to that is bypassing them when leaving or coming home, or if anything drifts into the house.
Any ways, If you don't believe any of these drugs does anything to curbing the cravings then it was that I was ready to quit. I figured it was a perfect opportunity and just didn't grab a smoke, nor did I have any craving for a smoke.
Thanks Terry.
Not reallyt sure about the drugs making you stop. My father had 7 heart attacks, 2 bypass, and 6 stents put in but he could never stop. I think maybe it is you good strong will to live!!
Congrads to you. 2nd hand smoke is awful for you as well. If you are really close it is like smoking yourself.

Forgot to add, 2 liters/hr oxygen for about six weeks. And I live with two other heavy smokers but they didn't bother me except for the repulsive stench.
