Andrew,

I quit 9 years ago. My diary is on here somewhere. You can do this, man. I clearly remember thinking my biggest hurdle was having a beer. It wasn’t easy, but once hurdled it was overcome. I think I broke my quit down into small habits which could be more easily broken, e.g. don’t smoke when you get up, don’t smoke when you walk to the train station, don’t smoke when you have a beer…you only need to break these habits ONCE to establish new habits. Good luck to you, mate. You will quit this.
