Rest in Peace
I think there are many ways to quit; and different ways work for different people. I sure ain't sayin' it's easy. Since both of us smoked, we were buying our cigarettes 10 cartons at a time from an Indian Reservation in the State of New York, so they were cheaper without the state tax. But New York's Attorney General filed a lawsuit to require them to collect the state tax. At the time, we had just received our latest shipment of 10 cartons when I decided to quit. I simply smoked the last cigarette in a pack one night before going to bed, and decided to quit; never smoked another cigarette (or anything else). Of course, habits are hard to break. I never felt any physical withdrawal symptoms, but would catch myself reaching for my shirt pocket only to find nothing there.:laughing: My wife had a much harder, slower time of quitting. She started going outside to have a smoke instead of smoking in the house or in the car whether I was around or not. So she eventually smoked that 10 cartons, and even bought 2 or 3 packs locally before completely quitting.
