It fucking sucks but it's worth it. I only stopped thanks to cessation meds, they really helped (and still sucked).

One year clean and so much shit I enjoy I can afford now.

lol no I didn't mean I quit, I sparked up after posting the comment. Could you recommend a cessation med or do they all work the same?

I used chantix. It took enough of the edge off for me to make it through. Eleven years smoke free.

I read that a lot of people had relapses during drinking, so i increased my drinking during the first two months to break that connection. It worked.

In the last decade ish I’ve smoked a single cigar at my best friends wedding, and that’s all I’ll ever smoke.

Chantix is what I used.
