Sucked bad for probably only about a week or two...I still got the desire occasionally for probably 3 or 4 years, but didn't waver. May have helped that I didn't use any other tobacco for years. I suspect that if I'd have been smoking cigars back then that it would have been harder for some reason....needed to make a clean break from the nicotine, I think.
Same with drinking....took a break for week...just to see how that would go...I'm on the same break after ...IDK...nearly 20 years, maybe?....good luck
What ^dstieger^ said. My same experience.
Hankey, you strike me as a feller who finds it easy to talk, but tough to act. At least this is how your posts portray you. Consider what you're moving towards rather than mind-f#&@ing yourself about what you think you're saying goodbye to. Then, find your balls and man up. I know you have balls because you've shared that you have something like 372 kids. So unless they were adopted, you got 'em. And with 372 kids (and untold #'s of wives to bear them) your health matters to more than just you. Your inaction impacts them, too.
I like you. I've traded with you. I'm just getting tired of reading more of the same. You can change. We can't make you.
