Once i quit smoking, will i never crave again after a while?

I'm planning on quitting smoking.. today actually. I've told all of my friends not to give me anymore cigarettes or go to the shop for me since i'm 17, and it took some courage to tell them but I did and they're all helping me.

I was just wondering, I hear that a lot of people get cravings even years after smoking, depending on how long you've been doing it for. I've been smoking since october 2010, so nearly 2 years. I just really want to be rid of his habit, I hate it so much.

    it is fantastic that you are quitting. And yes, can have cravings way after stopping. There are good patches, gum and inhalers out there that can help you get over this. Very hard to quit cold turkey.

    Go to your health pro and they will have all kinds of ideas. There will be temptations all around you and even people that have quit for even awhile start up again. Let us hope you do not !! Good luck.

    If you have you're mind set that you will never smoke again then no. All you have to do after quitting is doing excersies such as picking one up then saying no and putting it back down. Also telling yourself you will not smoke again. You can have people offer you one and practice saying no. Eventually your mind will have it set to not want or crave anymore.

    No, you'll crave it now and then but not like you do now. Eat a lot of oranges, it helps purge your body of nicotine.
