Well done Samb,its very hard to begin with but it really does get easier each day.I gave up two years ago,my misses braught a paperback book from a charity shop,Dr Miriam Stoppard,I can’t remember the title but I think she paid 50p.for it.I read it from cover to cover,instad of all the medical waffle it mentioned every reason I smoked and every time I tried to stop every reason for starting again.I had made every excuse in the book,I decided to put into practice what the main idea of the book was about,that is to"choose not to smoke today"Don’t tell yourself your giving up smoking or drinking or whatever,if you do that you feel as though your are depriving yourself,just take one day at a time,choosing not to smoke/drink ect.
I wish you luck and hope this post has’nt bored you into lighting-up.I know theres nothing more righteous than a reformed anything.Regards Jamie.
