Today is Day 4 of No Cigarettes and the last 4 days feel like several weeks. The cravings are gone but a few times a day I'll start to go through the motions of getting up to go smoke and then remember that I don't smoke, and it feels like losing an old girlfriend every time. My sense of smell is back and now I know what my city smells like - mostly bad, sun-melted plastic and unwashed vagrant, but there are some areas that smell of flowers or coffee during my 5:30am walk. I've actually been having honest-to-god dreams consistently for the first time in almost two decades but I don't know if that's from quitting smoking or the Welbutrin. Last night I dreamed that I had a Jeep and I spent the entire dream driving people around my old neighborhood - at some point I lost the jeep and I went on a walk to find it, when I reached the park by my old house I found out it was replaced with a lake surrounded by jungle. Day 3 is supposed to be the peak w/r/t cravings and anxiety, it was a poo poo day but if every day moving forward is easier than that, I can do this.

Day 4 has been really easy. Minimal cravings and I'm not cranky or having trouble focusing anymore.

if you invest $6 a day in a low cost broad stock market index fund like VTSMX for 10 years you will be about $32,000 ahead of where you would be if you had bought a $6 pack a day over that same period
I wish I had been doing this ever since I started smoking.

I just realized on page 1I said I quit smoking a week ago, but that's when I started taking the Welbutrin. I don't even know why I said that.

I'm two years quit. I still get a little mini craving when I'm around a smoker sometimes but there is absolutely nothing within reason that will make me even hit a cigarette ever again. What I'm saying is that it gets way easier but it's very gradual and requires patience. keep it up

Today was day 5 and it was easy as hell. No cravings, didn't even think about smoking until I left work and the thought was gone by the time I got home. This is the easiest addiction I've ever kicked. This is actually easier than the time I quit smoking weed after a year of nonstop 24/7 dabbing.

I used to smoke half a cigarette at a time and then save the other half for later. For the past 8 years I've been smoking a pack a day. It took me about 3 minutes to smoke half a cig. I did the math and I was spending approximately 120 minutes per day smoking cigarettes. Over the course of one year, this is over 700 hours. It's a lot of extra free time to have every day, holy smokes. Over the last 8 years I've spent about 242 full, 24 hour days smoking cigarettes. I wish I could have that time back.

Today was day 6 and I stopped taking the welbutrin and still have no desire to smoke. I hung out with smokers today and didn't want one.

I hear day 7 is hard because it's your first big milestone which will make you want to celebrate and celebration is probably a cue that made you want to smoke but I know it's going to be easy too.

Seeing as I've already saved myself $39 this week by not smoking for 6 days I am going to buy myself a pizza or something. I could get used to this... being rich as gently caress

Ah, to be a Hero... Keeping such company...

The real trick to quitting smoking is not buying cigarettes.
Be extra mindful when shopping. If you're in a bad mood you'll want to get consolation smokes. If you're in a good mood you'll want to reward yourself with smokes.
Just remember, your brain is as smart as you are and it will try to trick you into buying smokes any way it can.
e:
When I notice my brain doing this I typically say "hah, nice try brain! I'm going to treat myself with salmiakki instead!"
I don't say it out loud though. Not any more

Last weekend I bought three Prime Times and made little spliffs to smoke while walking around town and so this week I had a couple short cravings but I haven't smoked or had any interest in smoking tobacco. It's sort of like getting a tattoo, even if it hurts you're going to finish it because the finished product is so exciting.
I think I'm going to do the Prime Time Spliffs again, maybe 1 or 2 a week because they make me feel like I'm in High School again but I consider myself as having successfully quit smoking

i feel the op's pain, I've been waiting on FedEx for 4 hours and not smoking, a delicious coffee shop and southern cooking place literally no more than 15 yards to my right, phone almost dead, and the smells for sure being enhanced by secret FedEx employees to trick me. my faith sustains me

I've been having a lot of cravings today and the current one has persisted for almost 30 minutes. I'm not sure why but I'm pretty confident that I won't break down and buy a pack. I've been tempted to bum one off of a coworker but that sounds like a bad idea.
