It’s really mind over matter. I stopped smoking and drinking “cold turkey” one day 7-8 years ago.
Anytime I felt a craving (initially), I just told myself, “That’s not me anymore.”
You have to be strong with your “No’s!”, otherwise your mind will keep talking to you attempting to convince you otherwise. After a month, it gets much easier and even more so after two.
Now, I don’t miss either, particularly smoking.
