When we initially quit smoking sometimes some of us can not recognize what is going on with our bodies, minds, emotions. 206 days into my quit I have learned a few things. One of them is H.A.L.T. very very important. Newcomers, if you haven't heard this phrase let me quickly explain and you can research it or an Elder may post more details. Hungry, Anger, Lonely, Tired they can be confused with the desire to smoke.
Know these and manage these issues and you will better handle your urges.
As a nonsmoker, I learn something new everyday. Frankly, if I take a very close look at myself, I don't actually crave or have urges at this point I deal with memories which I am thankful are fading. This morning I looked outdoors to see what could be done to maintain the landscape. A very slight feeling of drawing on a cigarette surfaced in my throat. I would always smoke before, during and after working in the yard. So that let's me know that there is an addiction there however small still needs to be guarded. I will never assume that I am above the law of addiction. NOPE I have a forever quit but I still can only live one day a time.
Somebody say "Amen" (It's the preacher's daughter in me)lol
