You smoked for some number of years I'm guessing. Every day of that time you reinforced your commitment to be a smoker. Smoking was part of everything, especially anxiety and stressful moments. Now it's time to reverse all that thinking so is it any wonder that it takes quite awhile? It won't take nearly as long as the time you smoked but it doesn't happen over night. My own thoughts about smoking have continued to diminish well after my 1 year quit mark. These distorted thoughts and memories of smoking are the only cards your addiction has left in it's deck because you've already shown your dedication in fighting it since August 22nd of 2018. Continue to heal by using the logic and truths about smoking that you have acquired since then when smoking thoughts come calling. That is the tool that will erase those thoughts for good eventually. Outsmarting your addiction is the right path.

Thoughts of smoking are pretty common at 6 or 7 months quit but they are just that ..... thoughts. Those have no power unless you act on them and I know you won't. Frequency, length and intensity of those thoughts will continue to diminish over time. Yes, it takes awhile but it will continue to get better gradually so just carry on and you'll be fine. I too an sorry Jane has disappeared. She did a lot to help new quitters but, sometimes, people just decide to move on. She may resurface one day. Life if full of surprises.

That sucks Jillar but I'm not surprised. Insurers tend to jump pretty quickly to the "write-off" option.
