I've finally gotten used to stepping up to a counter at a gas station without buying smokes, but I still have to remind myself every time. It's not really a challenge and when I see somebody shelling out $50-$60 for a carton, it's a reminder that I'm not only free of that garbage but also saving money everyday. As for persistent triggers...the only one I encounter on a daily basis at this point is when I finish a job or task of some sort. Whether at work or at home, as soon as I finish a job there is a brief moment when my addiction clicks and the thought of "rewarding" myself with a cigarette crosses my mind. I'm not bothered by it, it is what it is. I'm an addict that spent a couple of decades conditioning my mind with cigarettes. Patience with the process is necessary.

Allen Carr's Easyway to Stop Smoking helped me immensely. It didn't sink in with me at first, but after I got out of my own way the truths of that book became evident to me. Carr dispels the myths and lies of the cigarette. We have to change our perceptual filters when we quit. A combination of addiction and years of conditioning led us to see smoking as we perceived it rather than what it actually is. In addition to that book, I frequented this board and watched several of Joel Spitzer's videos and read the links to articles provided here. We've never had more educational opportunities than we do right now. Forward is the way. Continue putting one foot in front of the other and eventually the path will appear to you.
