Anna, never having smoked, I can't sympathize with you since I've never experienced it, but, I know from talking to others that it is one of the most difficult addictions to break. I will be thinking of you. How about this...every time you want a cigarette and you don't take one, put a quarter in a jar and every time you smoke one then take a quarter out. Also, I've heard of people taking the amount of money the spend everyday on cigarettes and putting that money in a jar and after a week look and see how much you have in there and then after a month etc etc etc and then after a set length of time being smoke free, take the jar out and what ever money is there use it to buy yourself something nice (that might inspire Mark to quit too! lol)

Good luck and when the urge strikes jump on Pet Talk and read and post until the craving goes away!!
