Thank you, Incubus. I am getting there. Most day are getting easier. I still have moments. They are passing faster.

If no-one else had said anything I would still have continued posting and giving up. I guess it was more a blog than an interactive thread but it worked for me.
That is how I feel about it, too. It certainly is helping me.

I hope to be supportive to those trying to quit. I have tried and failed so many times. It is the hardest thing I have ever done! I truly believe in paying things forward. It is a reward all in itself.
