Have reached 80 days nic free. I decided to go cold turkey this time around after failed attempts with nrt. I don't know if I read it here or somewhere else but what has made all the difference for me this time around is to consider myself a non smoker from the beginning and not a smoker that is trying to quit. It seems so obvious now but I never thought of it before. Hope this helps somebody. I have quit so many times and dreaded it and suffered each time but this time with a mindset of a non smoker it hasn't been hard at all! Not to say I didn't get cravings but I quickly thought "I'm not a smoker, why would I buy or smoke a cigarette" and they passed without much more thought than that. It really is such a mental game.
