I quit when my son was born. I had a cigarette within a half hour of birth and while I was smoking, I realized that I should be with my wife and son during the first moments of his life. Since I realized that I was blowing it, and also didn't want to ever influence him to do something so dangerous, and since I wanted to be around to be his father for as long as possible, I quit. Cold turkey. I picked it back up for about a month when my little sister died a couple months later, but since then, I haven't touched one. It's been 16 months since my last cigarette.....yet sadly, I still want one every day. The want has gotten smaller, but it's definitely still there.
