I did it after 10 years!! Trust me it's not as hard as it may seem!!
Rule #1: The Build-up.
Set a date.. give yourself a while to smoke your lungs into oblivion. Tell your mates. Ney years is a good excuse, maybe. But tell EVERYONE!! ask them to stop you etc. Keep going on about it like it's a massive event (which it is.. cos its scary) That way when it comes, it's for real.Which leads to rule #2: Belive it's for real. If you have this "hmm i'd better not" every time temptation comes along, you're screwed. You need to have more of a "no frakkin way" attitude. Think of it as unprotected sex with a central african prostitute.
Rule #3: Wait.
The cravings go away. Your brain tells you that you'll feel like this until you have one to trick you. for the first while, especially with a drink or 2, you will feel like one every 10 minutes.. for about 3 minutes. Just keep telling yourself "just hang on for 3 mins" cos thats all you gotta do. After a few weeks thay're more like one every few hours, and you're so used to telling your brain to naff off it gets really easy
oh and one more.. just keep reminding yourself that one day, soon, you'll have complete control of your own life.. thoughts!!!! Your brain will no longer lie to you. It's fukkn awesome!!!
Ba da bing
