After 25+ years of smoking, I am now about 18 months smoke-free. It is 100% worth it to struggle and make the push to quit.
Do I want one every day? Yes. Do I feel like a million bucks (and have more money) since I quit? Hell yes.
Today is my 2 year anniversary and I hate it. I’m a lifetime smoker through and through.
I will smoke again in the future, I’m just currently not in a place to smoke right now.

But... why?
The current place I’m renting, the landlord doesn’t allow smoking.
Yes, but why smoke again? Do you like giving your money to some of the most evil companies on the planet?
Good job dude
Hey you don't need to man. I'm the same way as you but i just have to accept that i love them and one is the same as a billion and i can't do it. Stay strong.
Consider vapes, rather than smoking. You can get your nicotine without the worst side effects. You can also taper your nicotine levels over time, so you get less and less. That’s what I did and it worked well for me. Eventually I just stopped vaping, and since I had tapered my nicotine levels I didn’t really crave it (other than the activity itself, but even that went away unless I think about it specifically).
Stay strong dude. ❤️
Mad impressive, congratulations :)
Great job! Quit 5+ years ago, though I've slipped and had a couple in that time. Not buying 'em was the biggest thing. Still want one whenever I see actors smoking in a movie or show... so the craving never quite goes all the way away.
I never realized how much it makes you smell until I stopped and could immediately smell it on anyone, no matter how hard they tried to hide it.
Ex smokers can smell that shit anywhere. I can smell someone smoking on the highway if their windows are down.
I walk out of gas stations and can smell it with no one around smoking. It's crazy! Lol. Ive moved to the vape. Which is bad I know but way better than cigs. Eventually I'll quit that too, but man. Glad to get away from nasty cigs.
People say it never gets easier, but it does.
I'll be a year tomorrow. It definitely gets easier.
