Lemonrape, all the way down.
Smoked for about 6 months. At my peak I was smoking around 4 a day, which wasn't that bad. I realized I could be forming a habit that would haunt me the rest of my life, so I started reading this thread and went cold turkey. Reading about you guys with similar problems, most of them a lot bigger than mine, helped make it a no-brainer to quit.

Haven't smoked a single cig for 8 months, despite many temptations. Complete and utter denial is key. Watching my brain rationalize helped me a lot too, because I realized that my "reasons" were pretty much all bullshit and nicotine motivated. Also, a while back in the thread someone mentioned that if your friends smoke, it's better to go outside with them and talk rather than stay inside. The reason being, you're not tempted to rationalize that stopping smoking is stopping you from socializing with your buds. This is a good piece of advice, especially if your friends aren't assholes and don't push poo poo on you.

Thanks goons!
