re: Former pack a day smokers, how long after quitting did the cravings finally go away?

Yeah, she purposely had to stay away from places like that for the first 3 or 4 months because the temptation or rather pressure was too great. She really liked smoking. She had been doing it for 30+ years when she quit. The first 3 weeks were miserable for all involved. She had to figure out what to do with her time that before she would fill with having a cigarette or two. Like on the verge of crying upset about it.

I 've never really been involved with drug addicts trying to quit, but if cigarettes were any indication, it's a mother fukker.
