I rarely post, and pretty much never when its related to something other than games, but I feel inclined to reply. As someone who has both friends who are longtime addicts and friends who have successfully quit, I always try to chime in when I can.
I know its incredibly hard, but more and more people have been successful than ever. Something that disgusts me about smoking is the fact that companies specifically manufacture tobacco to make you addicted. They make a killing off folks that get addicted and do whatever they can to keep them addicted. Just keep reminding yourself that you're doing exactly what they don't need/want you to do. There is some satisfaction of being rebellious, and when they have no personal stake in your health, stick it to them.
Having a loved one do this with you can be a blessing and a curse.Im not a competitive guy but you guys need to be able to compete with each other to best the others weakness.
Anyway, cheers to you. I hope I can find this thread in a year and read about your success.
