Hey Lovie I quit some 30 years ago after smoking since I was 11 years old, in the end was smoking 80 a day, sometimes more. Reasons to quit? I married a new wife and waking up weazing in the morning is not romantic, neither is kissing an ashtray.
Sure it takes some time to get over it, 12 months after I quit I was still patting my pockets before I went out checing that I had ciggies and lighter, it was worse than getting divorced, filling many of the social aids ,that a wife does helping define who you are etc. But bear up, it doesn't last forever, and although you may not realize it as it's happening your health improves amazingly.Coming from a short-lived family and not expecting to make it past 50 myself I'm now a healthy 68-year old and expecting to live to 100. And I never wanted a cigarette after the first couple of years although I was addicted and know that if I smoked one today I would be on 10 a day by the end of the week and would end up a 60-80 a day man.So hang in love, it won't last and you'll love not being dependant on big tobacco or their filth sticks.
