Congratulations Ken on making a year. I can say the first year is the hardest and from here on it will be easier all the time.

It has been 2 years as of the 15th of March this year for me. I still get the odd craving and sometimes the odd dream about taking up smoking again and wondering what I am doing. I smoked from the age of 16 to 44, more than enough time to contract some smoking related illness. We have to wait another 10 or so years before we can be considered in the clear and even then we could contract something just because we once smoked.

I remember well when you gave up and I hope you continue to stay on the straight and narrow. Again congratulations.

Keep trying to give them up Jen.

As the add on the TV says, with every attempt it gets easier to give up the ciggies.

As for me, never considered myself to be a smoker. Have had the occasional packet in the past. Would smoke one packet then the novelty would ware off for about two years before I bought another packet.
