That's the most important thing....breaking the cycle. I did that too. I had several quit attempts and relapse from them. It is torture. You need to realize that smoking does absolutely nothing good for you. It is all bad. Breaking out of this cycle and quitting for good is the best thing to do.

As the quote in my signature states, I just wanted a live better. I quit at age 39 which I guess is younger than some of people here but I was suffering from a bad smokers cough, shortness of breath, low self esteem from being a smoker in a culture that was growing increasingly anti-smoking, trying to figure out how to get my next nicotine fix in this anti-smoking society, hating the monetary cost increase of cigarettes, deciding to finally quit smoking and then entering the horrible quit-relapse cycle, etc. etc. Over time, I grew miserable as a smoker. The freedom of a better life not fighting the constant struggle of the misery of smoking and all the BS that came with it is what led me to finally quit.

Just saw that newbie @AceWhite changed his avatar to an image from The Big Lebowski. I love that movie. Stay strong in your quit Sir. And here is some Big Lebowski. The Dude Abides.
