It's often been said that you never "cure" an addiction, -you merely swap if it for another, be it food, beer, sex, faith.
So, might I suggest
Good luck with it, hold in there, it's worth it

Good luck, just remember you are not giving anything up, you are gaining everything.

Oh I was very strong, I warned him if he did it again he would have no . He did it again so he got no for weeks, pmsl.

But as much as I love my friends the no option isn't really an option

Okay 2 weeks ago i set tomorrow as my date to stop smoking, and i am determined to give this a try with some nicotine patches for 1 week. ( i read that u should give yourself a date to mentally and physiologically prepare yourself for this, god knows !!) And then my mates that have moved to oz a few months ago tell me u can get 30 ciggies for 8 dollars or so to make me carry on !!!
Tomorrow i stop (i try) and i want to wish u the best of luck so that when we get over we are smoke free and we smell lush lol

My husband says that he will buy our allowance of fags from duty-free when we go, smoke those, then give up. Only time will tell!
