i am under some immense stress and haven't felt the urge at all. i have also been out drinking without the urge. i would like to say at this point that i'm done, but i know how that has gone in the past. to be honest though, i do feel a lot different this time going cold turkey... i don't feel the struggle i have felt in the past still trying to get the nicotine out of my system that the patches, gums etc kept in my system after quitting the "act" of smoking.
good luck to you, i know it's hard, but if you want to do it you can.
having kids that bug the crap out of you to quit helps a lot too...

good luck man..
i thought i was done... but i tell you what... about 3 weeks ago.. i had the strongest cravings ever... i mean it was really really brutal...
it has eased off some but damn... it came back as if it had never left..
i guess it never goes away
