Hello.

Just take it an hour at a time. It can be done as many on here will testify. Don't waste time worrying about what the day will be like, that's way too far ahead. If you are determined, you will do it. It really is a case of getting used to doing things without smoking. Keep occupied if you can and if possible, remove all smoking related materials from the house.

Go for it! 🙂
