Reciprocity

I firmly believe NO ONE can just cut down for any appreciable period of time. You will ALWAYS fall back into what ever volume of cigs you used to smoke, and sometimes, even more! Even just trying this method is putting yourself through extreme withdrawal for an extended period of time - makes no sense to me. Why torture yourself like that? You either have to quit completely or not. Quitting is not that horrible. It sure beats every long term outcome that smoking will provide you with!

Hey Huntressd! Welcome aboard the Quit Train and congrats on your 8 month quit. Thought I'd squeeze this one in even though we're a day late? Every milestone is worth a celebration You did bring some cold beer with you right CONGRATS ON 8!!

Just wanted to point out that we have an SOS page here. For new quitters, this is a place to post up an urgent message if you feel you are being overcome by an urge to smoke. WAIT - don't do that! Post up an SOS on this page and wait for 3 responses before you do anything!! There is also a "Pre-respond to your own SOS" thread on that page. This is where you can write yourself a message in advance. Something that is meaningful to YOU!! Go there when you feel weak and read it! It just may be what you need to re-energize your will power. At the very least, it will buy you time. Very strong urges to smoke don't last all that long so buying some time is important!
