I smoked for more years than I care to remember.

Then 10 years ago I got pneumonia. That was the best day of my life. I quit smoking, cold turkey. I was so sick I didn't even miss the cigs for about 5 days. By then I was past the worst of the cravings.

For the next year I thought about them a lot - but never gave in. Nowadays I truly don't even think about having one. I now know how I smelled when smoking - my clothes, the house, yuck.

My only advice - if you have a friend with pneumonia spend lots of time with him/her. Try to get really sick - that ought to help.
