Good on you, Melodeon!

Remember that smoking does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for you! The only thing it does is relieving withdrawal symptoms.

You never craved a cigarette before you started smoking, you never needed it to calm you down or to perk you up. The only reason you want one now is because you're addicted. Yes, it's an ugly word, but very true.

Try to think of the withdrawal-pangs as the "Nicotine Monster" fighting it's last battle. The more you feel the pangs, the harder the "Monster" is fighting for it's life, and if yoy don't give in, you will win the battle, and the "Monster" will die.

Please believe me when I say that the withdrawal pangs will more or less disappear after about five days. If you still crave, it's in your head.

Don't give in, not even once! Because if you do, you'll get hooked again. Nicotine is the most addictive substance there is, and one cigarette, just one, will make you feel the withdrawal pangs again.

If you want, there is also a book written by Allen Carr, called Allen Carr's easy way to stop smoking (or someting like that). I followed his advice, AND IT WORKS!

Good luck!
