I quit after 40 years. Chantix works if you are mentally ready to quit. Don't forget, you will always be a smoker. You just don't smoke anymore but you will want to.

I smoked exactly 24 years. Quit February of last year. You will start feeling a bit better right away. After about 2 to 3 months I felt 100% better.

Good luck!

I know a guy who smoked for years. Tried to quit a few times, but it never worked.

Then Doc said, You have lung cancer. Boom. Never smoked again.

I smoked for 20 years and quit cold turkey 29 years ago. One of the best things I ever did. Quit those damn things!

Best decision you've ever made in your life. Smoking is linked to an innumerable number of cancers. Not to mention, if you ever see someone with emphysema it will scare the shite out of you. Hang tough. It'll be worth it.

I smoked about that long. You feel crappy for three days. It is not bad after that. But like sobriety, remember HALT.
Hungry
Angry
Lonely
Tired

You have to pay attention to your emotions and feeling for a couple of months. Starting back is usually associated with your negative emotions. The cravings only lasted about six months. No one loved smoking more than me. I don't have a ton of discipline. If I can do it anyone can. God Bless you man!!!
