So, I recently realized that tomorrow will be my 20th anniversary of quitting smoking! I can't believe it!

25 years for me... I haven't done the math for a bit... lets see... $5 a pack. 2.5 packs a day is $12.50/day, or ... I have saved $114,000. Additionally, I am still alive. Not bad for an old fool, eh?

Congratulations! The traditional 20th anniversary gift is china. Buy yourself an ashtray and smash it to pieces.

Congratulations! That's awesome.

Congrats!

Great job, I'm in my 8th year abstaining from cigarettes. The smell of smoke, residue, and ashes nauseates me, but that's a positive. Again, great job.

I quit over fourteen years ago and still want one every now and then. Do you still have the desire for a smoke? By the way congratulations.

i quit with the assistence of a hypnotherapist. never felt a craving ever since.

@walklightly I see you are from down under. I made it to Brisbane when I was in the U.S. Navy.
A friend told me that every time I felt like having a smoke to count to 10 and the urge would go away. He was right.

@Eirteacher, if it works, don't change it.

Good on you! I just completed 6 years without the smokes a month ago. I feel very much liberated.

@orange_girl, what with? a ciggie? a spliff? internally only, letting my lungs flap happily 😀

@orange_girl, now there's a thought! 🙂

Brilliant, just over 13 years for me

I often buy myself treats like 2 royal clown loaches that cost £160 though I got them cheaper.

I'm envious.

I've actually quit myself, twice. The last time for 2 1/2 years. I remember how very much better I felt and am pretty close to putting forth this effort again.
