edit as some of you may know, i don't have teeth, and it's too soon to get my dentures yet, sooo... chewing gum is pretty much out of the question =/ atleast last time i tried to quit i could chew gum.
yo brah thats great u tryin to quit...trust me ull feel alot betta.....its hard n to me tha best way is cold turkey...i tried leanin myself of wit a few diff methods soon after high school but didnt work....jus like u said tho...mind over matter....thats all it is...its all in ur mind. trust me u will crave one for tha rest of ur life. u jus have to b strong n not give in. im almost 26 i started when i was 8...well smoked my first cig when i was 8 but really picked it up around 11-12, and next month will make it 2 yrs smoke free for me!!!! i feel great! but like i said u will foreva crave one....i do almost everyday. it decreases wit time but will still b there. especially if u toke, or drink n what not. during tha 1st couple months when id b ouut at tha bar playin in poker tournys i would take a hit or 2 off a friends cig but only then. neva bought a pack or asked for a cig or even asked for a hit, except at those few moment. but if u do give in n hit a cig or wha not, dont let it get u down n tell urself "well mite as well keep smokin now" jus keep ur mind focused n ull b ok. If u dont have the will power then it wont work. Thats all it is when it comes to quitin smokin n even drugs n drinkin if u ask me. i understand that sum things give u body addictions n shit but still all in ur mind in tha long run. if u have strong will power u will/ or atleast have a greater chance of actually doin it. but if u dont have it, then it would pretty much b impossible. But hey...GOOD LUCK with it. i really hope u can do it. jus remember.......Mind Over Matter!!!! GL! keep us posted!
