I'm at 36 hours right now, aiming for the 72 hour mark. I keep reaching over to the table where I used to keep the smokes only to grab air. I had one serious thought yesterday about getting some smokes but it only lasted about a minute. I'm lucky because 1) I live alone (no other smokers) 2) I work from home. (no other smokers around)

I am already a non-smoker in my mind. I look forward to the withdrawal symptoms ending but it is just the poison leaving my body. I went to a convenience store yesterday and as I was paying I saw all the cigarettes lined up behind the clerk. I said to myself- I need a pack of those like I need a box of tampons.
