stopping not quitting

I really think you need to replace 'quit' with 'stop'
Quitting something indicates that you are giving it up, as in it was a good thing, and you are now missing out.
Stopping on the other hand, is simply that, stopping, you don't need it, so stop.
I used to smoke, and after having my last cigarette almost 3 years ago, I cannot even fathom how I could have suffocated myself like that for so long.
No nicotine patches required, just don't feel guilty about wanting one, you will most likely want one for the rest of your life, even though you loath the things.
