Thanks so much for the feedback on the 'Giving Up Smoking" post. Hopefully, you and Mum are still non-smokers. I bet you are enjoying sunny weather over there in lovely Tauranga - Winston country.

The comment about thinking of your self as a non-smoker is valuable, I think, for all people trying to quit smoking. Changing one's mindset right from the beginning of your plan to stop smoking is very important. Affirmations that you are a non-smoker can be effective in making you believe it. Thankyou.

As an ex-smoker for more than 15 years, I can confirm that quitting alcohol helps a lot in letting cigarettes go as well. Yet, I know so many people who manage to quit smoking, then after months or even years they start again. I think this might have roots in their mindset: when they think of themselves, they see themselves as smokers, although they don't smoke anymore. I believe this was the major change and achievement in my case: seeing myself as a non-smoker. This is most probably going to allow me not smoke again for the rest of my life.
