My story is not unique, like lots of other smokers I tried lots of times, lots of ways. And, every time, I thought "just one won't hurt" but as they say in AA, "one is too many and a million ain't enough."

I finally did it and now I can't really believe I smoked for so long. However you do it, the data is clear--you won't quit if you don't try and the more often you try the higher the likelihood of success. Do it now, get it over with and, in time, you won't even think about it.
