I stopped 16 months ago. Got to be honest, I would still love to have another, but I loathe the smell, when I smell it on anybody else it makes me feel sick. Doesn't stop the mental attachment though.

Well done!
I stopped nearly 3 years ago. I read 4 different versions of the Allan Carr book to rid myself of the mental attachment, which was keeping me hooked. I can honestly say that is what has kept me stopped, with no cravings, for this long.

WELL DONE....takes a while before you forget but it starts with a few mins.
Then 10, 20 and one day you will go a few hours and not think of smoking.
Then DAYS! And you cant quite belive it.
Its normal to want one, s long as you dont have one...or you will be a smoker all over again. In health theres a nicotines something or other thread with other recently stoppd smokers...come join us!

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face, , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin, , type [grin] or :o
For a wink, , type [wink]
For a shocked face, , type [shock]
For an angry face, , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face, , type [blush]
For a sad face, , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face, , type [envy]
For a sceptical face, , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
