1. Congratulate yourself on doing something that most people find
extremely hard to do. :toast: Good job BBM :hi:

15. I know...
Let's see how long I last. Last time I quit was during the height of the "terra" alerts. I told my wife we should stock up on bottled water, first aid supplies, canned goods and cartons of cigarettes, because you bet your ass I'm relapsing if the shit goes down! Besides, they'd be as good as currency, too.

4. there are no innocent household appliances. None at all
a baseball bat helps. If necessary, drop it off the roof onto your driveway, then drive over it a few times with your car. Dig a hole, drop the remains inside, then cover it with the last of your butane lighterfluid. Ignite, and throw remaining packs of smokes onto the blazing fire.

11. Buy a pack of smokes. Quitters are losers.
Just kidding. I make that joke to rationalize my own inability to kick the habit. Best of luck.

16. Look Up a Certified Hypnotherapist In the Phone Book
I used to be a hypnotherapist, until my back injuries prohibited me from practicing.

Hypnosis can help reinforce your desire to quit.
