I only truly quit when I reached the point where I was sick and tired of everything involved with smoking. The smell, the prices of the damned things going up, ashtrays, coughing, all of it.

I had tried quitting many times before, saying I'll quit before I'm thirty. Nope. I'll quit before I turn thirty-one. Uh-uh. Crap like that.

 

Where it finally clicked, was when I realised smoking was no longer fun, or enjoyable to me. It had become a damn chore. It wasn't the "cool" thing to do, like it was (or at least seemed to be) when I was younger, you know? It was no longer something I wanted to do; it was something I had to do, because I had become so dependent on nicotine to make it through the day. Hell, through one hour. I was a damn slave to that shit.

Fuck that.

 

I quit cold turkey right then and there. Was it easy? Hell, no, but I didn't give in to the cravings, no matter how bad they got. Twenty years of smoking was enough.

It's going on six years now since I've had a cigarette. Cravings still hit me from time to time. The other day, a really strong craving hit out of nowhere. It was tough, but fuck you, nicotine. Kiss my ass. I like taking a deep breath without having a coughing fit. I like not smelling like a fucking chimney.

 

 

TL;DR - I quit smoking. If I can do it, without a doubt you can. It boils down to how badly you want to quit, and what are you willing to go through to do it. But you can do it, dammit. *insert Shia LeBeouf gif here (or not, fuck that sumbitch)*
