I just passed the 6 month milestone.about time too what a drag the last month has been i was so determined to reach this point. It feels more like a year because it was a year ago that i first began this quit, i lasted 6 weeks and it took several months to finally get a grip on another attempt and here i am, pretty hard going all in all. iv reached a point where cravings are so rare iv forgotten what they were. the morning cigarette was the hardest to get over, in fact its only the last few weeks where i havnt wanted one at that time. I dont miss smoking at all now. nothing now would go better with smoke.No pain or difficulty of any kind would be eased by smoking . I have absolutely no reason to do it. there is nothing missing that it would make complete and i know with all of my heart that i never really fully enjoyed it. it has not been a sacrifice that i wish i could have again. its a lifelong ambition come to fruition, iv always wanted to stop, and its happened at the right time. every day without smoking is loads better than any day where i smoked in fact from where im standing now cigarettes just spoiled everything, none of them was ever as good as the thought of one. apologies for being a bit of a pratt recently. my excuse. i quit smoking.

And there we have it. Right there. The ultimate truth about smoking. What a shame it took us a few decades to realise it, but we have now arrived.
I'm so very pleased for you, Mash. You have done it your way, and it has worked. Welcome to the six month room. The only way out of here now is the door to the Penthouse. There's no going back.
What great news, Mash - well done well done well done. You've negotiated all those pebbles and the road ahead sounds much easier. I shall look forward to sharing the view - I'm not too far behind you, but making slightly heavy weather of it at the moment ..
Congratulations on a huge achievement, Mash !! I have been following your journey and you are such a great inspiration to myself and others on this forum.
Well done, Looking forward to following your journey into the penthouse
