Don't ever start smoking again

I quit smoking about 8 months ago. I can now go to the bar and be around smokers without desiring a single cigarette. Once you really conquer the addiction, you will be able to resist every temptation. You will not desire it at all. It will be like you never smoked before. It took about 90 days.If you've only gone a few days without a cigarette, stay away from your friends who smoke and avoid places and situations that might tempt you. But realize that it won't always be difficult. Even when your coworkers go outside for a cigarette...eventually you will not care. You will not miss cigarettes. Instead, you will feel sorry for their addiction and rejoice at your freedom from slavery. I am not kidding! I'm no stronger than any of you. I have only come to realize over time that cigarette smoking, like any vice,smoking cessation, is a slavery -- and freedom from it is sweet.If you fail, keep trying. Resist as hard as you can! You will not always feel the strong pull. It gets easier! Don't give up!!!Yours,Vince,stop smoking now,Michigan, USA
