Huge welcome to our community dwade - congratulations on over 10 months smoke free, that is great :)

Keep strong, I found when I get the urge I trie not to relate that urge with cigarettes, I’ve been nearly 5 mths quit now, I’m still on strong patches but it’s way better than smoking especially when I’ve smoked for 40 years and now have emphasemia.
