You are going to hear this a lot from now on...

"One day at a time..."

I was told it takes 21 days to break a habit.

It gets easier as time goes on. Even if its still in your mind and you want to think about it, just fight it off and put your thoughts into to something else. Find a new special interest. They can change.

Best luck and wishes.

actually, find another interest would be a start. Look around and see what else interests you.

Do you wanna get some PAIN!?
This is your brain on PAIN!!
Lets stay up all night and do a big bag of PAIN!

Got any money to buy some PAIN!?
Want to shoot up some needles full of PAIN!?
How'd you like some PAIN! in your nose?
How's that PAIN! you're smoking?

Self altering of your mind can take a while, but is not hard to do. Actually, our minds are very easily warped and changed, and there are certain things that our mind has no protection from, such as micro/radio/super sonic waves for example. Experimenting with certain sound waves can be an interesting experience I have found. But anyway, try this: do something, and tell yourself later that it did not happen. Every time you begin to think it did happen, immediately tell yourself it did not. After a while, you will truely believe it did not happen. If you use this the right way, it can help your problem. Think about it, use your imagination.
