Adam, congratulations on your decision to quit smoking! You'll be so glad that you did. I smoked my last cigarette on Feb. 5, 2005. I love being free of that habit.
There are several internet sites that will help you - someone already mentioned Whyquit. There's also quitsmoking.about.com and
Quit Smoking All Together with QuitNet.com - Stop Smoking Help and Cessation Support. When I was getting ready to quit and the first few months after I quit, I read those forums constantly. Anytime you feel a craving to smoke a cigarette there will be something in the forums to help you get through it.
I used the gum for a couple of weeks - that helped me get through the worst of the cravings.
The main thing to remember is JUST DON"T SMOKE, no matter what! Once you quit, it will be tough, but it will get easier every day. If you do smoke, even just one puff, the withdrawal symptoms get worse, so you make it harder on yourself if you try to smoke just one or just a few puffs.
Good luck!
