Oh WOW!! 17 Years. That's huge! Congrats Christian 99. Great job.

I smoked for several years after my wife quit. She would comment once in awhile that she knew I just had a cig when I could not smell anything at all. She was really good about it though as she never did this in a way that made me feel bad or guilty. I always tried to be careful about smoking around her though because I respected the fact she was now a non-smoker and likely more sensitive to the smell of smoking. I'm not sure there's any way to approach this with your wife in a manner that won't have her all up in arms about it. Smokers get pretty defensive about stuff like that - I know I did and I suspect you probably did too. More and more smokers are the outcasts of society these days so when your significant other starts in on you ..... look out. If she is respecting your situation, in terms of not smoking openly around you and subjecting you to her second hand smoke on a regular basis, I would say that's probably the best you can hope for until she too is ready to quit. That may just happen too as you are setting a great example for her

Hi Zoom! Addiction to nicotine requires a strong commitment to one's self, time and patience. Taking it one day at a time in the early days is the way to go. Don't worry about days ahead - just today. It does get easier with time but it takes time to get to that point. Until then you need determination & faith in the process. As long as you fight each craving and don't smoke again, you will be smoke free for life. The educational part is to help you finally realize that smoking does absolutely noting good for you - nothing (no even relief of stress).

You can't change the facts.

Oh ..... OK ................ 20!

Will power or determination IS required but I agree that education about the addiction is probably the most important thing in terms of not only quitting but also protecting your quit because until you truly believe that smoking offers you nothing positive, you are at risk so .... educate yourselves on this addiction. It really matters!
