It's been ten days, and I'm still in the constant-itch phase. Probably will be until Christmas, I've smoked for years. Quitting is my Christmas present to myself.
So I chose a work assignment in Chennai as a catalyst for my quit, away from the usual triggers and habits and friends, and it's working, but Holy God since the floods hit everything has stopped working, and now I am marooned in an office, nothing to do but work, and these marathon work sessions are where I used to really love a smoke as a break from the grind.
Mind you that's a small complaint compared with some of the misery I saw when I waded into the office the other day. Over 60 have died, already. I'm actually glad to have the crappy office and desk as my shelter.

I have been smoking for 10 years, since I was in high school.
I haven't smoke for ~5 months now.
Significantly improved my strength and how I look.
Go for it, quit, cold turkey, your brain may say "please, one last smoke then we will quit", dont listen to it, just quit, go gym, eat fruit, do programming, just quit.

I think you didn't understand my joke, but nonetheless i agree quitting smoking is not that hard, i for my self started quitting, then realised i don't need it but i want it.
Now i switched to mini cigars, cigars and pipe smoking and smoke whenever i feel like to do it or are in a proper surrounding. It's not a thing like "I need a smoke now" but more a "hmm now feeling comfty" and just sit down enjoying a pipe or a cigar to my whisky.

And you still get to work on time...
If I were you I'd probably make it back to Switzerland or Ireland before you could say "flood"

Have you seen the pictures of the airport on the news sites? 15 feet of standing water in places. They reckon it's shut until at least Tuesday.

I had a bad cold which did not let me even think of smoking for a week or two. After that was over, I cultivated this aversion and simply did not start again.

A few years ago I got an 'E' cigarette, which really helped me quit. Now I don't smoke at all, and only 'vape' if I am duty driver at a function where alcohol is consumed. Two Christmas's ago - I got the short straw. This year, folks are coming to us.

At least if your fags are damp you can't smoke them.

I smoked for 23+ years, and quit about 10 years ago, before my son was born. You really have to be ready to quit, for it to work. If there is one shred of not wanting to quit, then you will most likely not quit.
I used the gum. It really helped me, and did not make me sick to my stomach, like the patch. It took me about 4 months to quit, using the gum.

Stop Smoking, a very good idea! Still I'm fighting with it. It has the smell of Advertising, but I like to mention "Allen Carrs". In my environment I know 6 People who stopped Smoking after reading his book. All of them not esoteric and very realistic People....

For the sake of your family, please stop smoking.
I have buried both of my parents because they smoked; my mother was 55, my father was 60.
My children never knew their grandmother.

..I see it is time for my smoking-break. I do not intend to stop, and do not intend to live longer just to please other people.

I'm also -unfortunately- a heavy smoker. Stop doing this self destructive behaviour is not a bad idea

It is not "self-destructive", unless you want to classify driving a car like the same.
It can be an unhealthy habit, but given the amount of unhealthy stuff out there, I could not care less. I don't want to live 200 years healthy, I'd rather have five minutes of fun.
