The threat of torture from bronchitus was key to quitting along with the threat that medication to help quit smoking would cancel the effectiveness of migraine control medicine. Agony is a good initial motivation for change. After that there is the elevation of feeling better stronger and healthier. Happier? ehh at least I'm not less happy.

Compared with prior attempts to quit smoking my experieince for the last 5 days is one of unique confidence, pride and satisfaction that I have indeed quit smoking, quit buying and quit doubting that I quit.
