I'm 36 and I've smoked for 20 years, usually just over a pack per day. A dozen years ago, I went to one of those group hypnosis at the Holiday Inn sort of things. I think I lasted 2 days. I haven't made a serious attempt since then. I am buying cigarette online. I just liked smoking too much.
Now I've been without a cigarette for 2 days, and I'm feeling fine, and I'm very surprised--surprised that I even decided to quit (it was almost accidental--read on), and surprised that it's more painless than I thought it would be. I know I'm not "out of the woods" yet, but the 2-day success seems to add incentive not to pick one up again.
I didn't think a great deal about this the next couple of days, but I did consider it some. Meantime, I have been taking Wellbutrin in hopes of just cutting down, smoking less than a pack per day. Wednesday morning, I woke up and I had 2 or 3 cigarettes just to get that level of nicotine going for me. Those were the last cigarettes I smoked. On my way to work, I just kind of opted not to have a smoke. I sometimes play little games with myself to withhold cigarettes, again, in an attempt to smoke less, not necessarily to quit. So on Wednesday, I told myself I'd only have one cigarette before lunch and one after lunch, then go back to normal levels of smoking like a chimney after 5PM. I got busy at work, didn't end up smoking. I think I had lunch at my desk that day. At some point in the afternoon, I got up to go outside and smoke. I stopped by the restroom. After exiting the restroom, I thought, you know, I don't really want a cigarette that badly, so I'll skip it. One thing led to another and the work day ended. Then I went with my family to the in-laws for dinner. By the end of dinner, I had decided to try to go the whole day without smoking. That was really the first conscious time I thought that this would become a quit attempt. I guess lots of things were churning in my mind: the concern my sister showed, even if I didn't totally understand it, thoughts of my kids and how very, very stupid it would be to die from smoking.
