DIAFA lot of smokers quit, only to start up again even years later after a bout with stressful events. Those who detox their lungs successfully, such as the program <removed...again> offers, are much less likely to have a smoking relapse.
Looking into quitting myself. After 25 years I'd really like to be healthier for myself, for my daughter, for my little one on the way and for my wife.
Never smoked, but I picked up E-Cigs a few months ago, thinking about moving to real smokes. I work at a store that sells cigs, and I have about 8 regulars who didn't start smoking until they were in the mid 30's to 40's. I'm intrigued by that because the typical smoker started in high school. I just turned 39.

Seriously, what the fuck...
Bull.
Good for you. I'm over 6 months without a "regular" cigarette...only the e-cig. I KNOW I'm still a nicotine addict...but this is still better than smoking. (even if only slightly better)
Bull.
I'm coming up on 4 years. Just remember a couple things.
You're only 1 puff away from being an addict again. Don't take that puff.
Smoking does not relieve stress. That's a lie you've been telling yourself for however long now.
You have a nicotine addiction not a smoking addiction. e-cigs, chew, etc are not an option.
It only gets better.
I feel amazing now that I don't smoke. I dropped a 17 year addiction and never looked back. Also, if you are a drinker, you might want to hold off on that for a while.
Yup, that was the mistake I made the last time I quit, after 4 months without a cig I had a huge T-bone and some crab legs for my birthday, I also bummed a smoke from a neighbor, I felt WTF, if I can go 4 months without a single smoke one after a big meal won't make me addicted again..WRONG, within 3 weeks I was back full-time, stupidest thing I've ever done. I'm trying to gradually switch to the e-cigs now, I've cut back to about 8-10 analog cigs /day, my biggest fear at this time is the FDA coming in and stopping the sales of E-cigs, their in the process of evaluating how they are going to regulate them now..

Just put water in it. Will help ease the desire to hold a real smoke.
