Sarah,
Try not to think of this as forever. We each only quit for a day - today. We can't change yesterday and we can't do anything about tomorrow until it gets here. So just quit for today. And if today is too long, then quit for 5 minutes. And then in 5 minutes, quit for 5 more minutes. Those minutes and days add up and before you know it, you're sitting at over a year going "has it been this long already?!?!" Don't get me wrong, at first, a day feels like a week and a week feels like a month and a month is completely unfathomable!!! But if you just take it 5 minutes at a time, you'll do fine!
Also, try not to think of it as "giving up" anything. What exactly are you giving up? Bad breath, a cough, a stench that follows you everywhere you go. What are you gaining? Life, time (both the physical time that we spent smoking AND the time we will gain by being on this earth longer), money, health, senses of smell and taste... the list just goes on! You can do this Sarah! You obviously want to, otherwise you wouldn't be here. Just focus on the here and now. That's all any of us can do.
Crave the Quit!
Pam
