Physical withdrawal hasn't hit you yet. But yeah, the habit, the psychological addiction, is always what people say is the worst.
My mother's trick was to have a (still-smoking) friend light a cigarette for her, take a couple of drags to get it all flavoursome, and then stub it out and give it to her. She would then use this as her "dodie" for a couple of days until the taste went. It gave her something to do with her fingers, something to have hanging from her mouth (she went cold turkey from 60 a day), and the taste and deep-breath reason.
In all my past attempts the physical withdrawal never hit me that hard. It was the psychological that always broke me (i.e. I'd break and start smoking again after a month or two being off them). The comment was a reference to my previous attempts rather than my present effort. :)

But excellent stuff, and don't back down :)
