I have a friend who quits periodically and he always says he has quit smoking after a week or two, rather than that he is quitting. He really believes he has kicked it and so, when he's really stressed or he's drinking at the bar and decides to have a cigarette or two, just this one time, it seems like no big deal to him. Of course, a week later he's smoking a pack a day again. At six days you have a long way to go, not to minimize what you've already done. Good luck.

Schmokes,
Oh, i've "quit" before...and you are right...it's an ALL or NOTHING situation. There is no "I will just smoke while I drink" or "Just one won't hurt". One = back to smoking GUARANTEED.

I quit cold turkey 5 years ago in September. I still get cravings but I tell myself I am going to win. Not the smokes. Now, if the wife leaves me or something REALLY bad happens, I am right back on them. But for now, all is well.
You really have to WANT to quit otherwise it will never happen. If you really want to, you will be able to. Like it was mentioned before, it is mostly mental. (And from what I have read, you ARE mental so... ;) )
Stay strong.

I quit using nicorette gum, then promptly became addicted to the gum. Its been a couple of years since I quit smoking,and unlike Bones, I DO feel the health differences. My lungs feel MUCH better in the morning, I have much more endurance/stamina when it comes to cardio type exercise, etc.
I do get occasional cravings, and like bones, have had a social smoke on occasion, but haven't reverted back to the habit. The hardest times for me used to be business trips....but I even licked that one....
good luck!

All I can say is good lucky. I have never once put a cigarette in mouth so I can't understand the temptation. Now if it's anything like eating a box of Crunch Berries in a day, then I can understand.
It's all good in the long run though. You'll be fine once you get over that 5 year hump
