I smoked from 17 til 26 year old. For most of the time I wanted to give up and I tried and failed. When I really wanted to give up I did. I gave up for 3 months when I didn't want to and started again but when I was in the right place with the right attitude I managed it. 4 years later and I've not touched anything to do with the baccy. I even kept the cigars I was given for my sons birth to smoke later. They can chuck them in when they light me up.
