Thread: This is it. Giving up the Copenhagen

Congratulations on deciding to quit! It CAN be done. I quit smoking after seven years (and many failed attempts to quit).

Just watch those "trigger" times like after a meal, first thing in the morning, etc.. The times you always use tobacco and find something else to do during that time. You need to try to replace your habit with a good habit. It's been about twenty years since I quit and I still have cravings for cigarettes (and marijuana too but that's another story!).

Just get it into your mind that you are done with it, and be definite about it...no compromise! The cravings will come even in your sleep. I remember having dreams that I started smoking again that were so real, I woke up crushed thinking I actually did it.

I will post this reply with a prayer for your strength...good luck!
