JoeJ! I was just looking for a turkey picture to start todays parade....you are a mind reader! Thanks for getting todays parade started.
Cold Turkey was easier for me because I wasn't prolonging my withdrawl with nicotine replacements. And this is the first Great American Smoke Out that I
can say I don't smoke! Yea!!!!

Cold Turkey was MUCH easier than I thought it would be, it certainly wasn't the drama-filled angsty experience that many people
led me to believe. Once I got through withdrawal I was done: no prolonged agony, no months and months of longing and melodrama. My life wasn't over when
I quit... in fact my life began when I quit!
And staying quit honestly has been a snap. One of my biggest fears was that I would live in constant turmoil, I listened to way too many stories of doom and
gloom from negative people. I only wish I found this place sooner! Thanks to the articles and the awesome people here I fully understand how addiction works,
I simply know too much to go back to that smokey cloud of ignorance!

Love this parade!!!
I quit cold turkey and thought I would go into shock. That was untill I finished reading all the library and posts here. The education that I recieved made
me realize that to quit wasnt as dramatic and life threatening as I had thought.
Thank you every one here for your time and stories and facts. I am calm and comfortable after 37 years of fighting constant withdrawal.
I QUIT and will NTAP

It's funny, because I still have days when I crave like crazy. But if I look at the whole picture, I am in utter disbelief at how easy it was to quit. I
was terrified to quit cold turkey, I thought I would be out of mind. I'm not. I am fine. When I do have a moment, I am able to stop, think, and move on.
I couldn't do that as a smoker. I was too stressed although I didn't realize it.
Seven months, two weeks, five days, 2 hours, 58 minutes and 7 seconds. 9324 cigarettes not smoked, saving $2,563.90. Life saved: 4 weeks, 4 days, 9 hours, 0
minutes.

Sooner or later you've got to get the nicotine out of your body.
It might as well be sooner as far as I'm concerned.
Cold turkey worked for me.
Go Cold Turkey!
Thanks Joe!

I still struggle to believe how easy cold turkey was for me.
Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is thing to be achieved.

Way easier than you could possibly imagine. The simple fact is, no
nicotine today, and free you will be!
We all quit cold turkey here and we all are glad we did. Give it a try.
Today is as good as yesterday and better than tomorrow. Just quit and you will soon agree.
