I quit about 5.5 years ago and haven’t touched one since. I smoked for 15 years and was a 1-3 pack a day smoker depending what I was doing. 3 packs easy on those long all day up north drink-a-thons. I used the gum for about a month before switching to an e-cig. I used that for a year before I realized it had turned into too much of a crutch and quit that too. It certainly wasn’t easy... I’ve got friends that smoke still and I STILL get urges if I’m hanging with them and having a beer...
