In the early days for me, there were more tough days than better days (probably the first 4-6 weeks for me). There were up and down days from there on but the up days started to outnumber the down days as time passed. It all happens so slowly it's hard to discern exactly when it gets better more than not. My point is, if you hang in there for the long run (as you say Gus; making up your mind that you're done with smoking) then it will just happen for you at some point. I was reasonably comfortable with the whole quit thing after 6 weeks or so but it was probably 7 months before I really knew that I was done for good with cigarettes. That's when I started to look with pity rather than envy at others who were smoking. That's when I knew I'd really turned the corner for good. My brain finally got it .... cigarettes were my enemy - not my friend!

I lived in the Valley for 11 months a long time ago and always wanted to go there but never did. Used to pile my surfboard into my TR3 and head down Topanga Canyon to surf at Malibu. Those were the days

That thought you have can soon turn into 'Those poor addicts, still smoking. I'm so glad I'm no longer chained to my addiction!' I'm serious, This is how I was looking at other smokers within months of quitting. I think it kind of goes like this: romancing smoking will lead you back to it. Realizing that smoking never did one good thing for you will reaffirm your passion for quitting and set you free forever!
