I'm Still Here

And even though I have fallen, I still have the need to blog a bit. I have a quit date in mind, but it's not set in stone yet. I chose April 6 because it is my birthday. It would be a new day, a rebirth. I think about quitting constantly, the thoughts whirling around in my brain won't leave me night or day. I can't seem to muster up the courage to just lay the smokes down. With a quit date in mind though, I can continue to work on it and choose to commit that day. I don't want to be a smoker, I really don't. I've been staying here for hours in a day just to keep hearing all the encouragement going around. It's helping.  Soon I'll take my place as a newbie once again, but with the wisdom I have gained in this last year of starts and stops.

Have a great smoke free day everyone.

Gone but Not Forgotten. RIP - they leave a legacy of their quit journeys behind as road maps for future members, to prevent the pitfalls, provide the tools and show the hope and possibilities for success at overcoming this addiction at any age at any stage. I am a 62 year old suffering with moderate COPD. I have relapsed several times from my quit, but I will keep trying till I get it right! "Your mind controls your quit but you control your mind. Don't let your emotions spoil your quit!" Don't allow a stumble to be the end of the journey. The difference between a good day and a bad day is attitude!
