I haven't had a cigarette for 3 days

And I feel like a volcano that's about to erupt! Anyone got any tips for keeping off the cancer sticks?

i am in the middle of quitting. going cold turkey is a bad idea. best thing to do is decrease your number daily. like 5 in one day for a few days, then 3 for a few days, one a day, one every few days.
i am now to the point i only smoke when i am drinking, so i smoke about once or twice a week.

I wasn't an everyday smoker and I had already cut down when I decided to stop so I suppose it's not cold turkey. I'm also off the sugar as well. I'm going for the whole lot. And I'm celebate. Does anyone know a good monastery?

I quit a few months ago... it's a bitch for the first week but it's all in your mind... I did it cold turkey.. no gum,patch,etc... Stay strong, keep yourself busy doing other things... don't think about it...

Do it for all eternity--your body does not understand "time." If you even so much as hint that a cigarette might arrive 20 years from now, it will leap on that bit of hope and beg you for the next 20 years. Tell "no forever" and it will back off.

Good point. The rational approach Vs 12 Step. Gotta love it.
