I have gone through the modules of quitsmokingonline.com and am very close to finishing Allen Carr's Easy Way to Quit Smoking (I have read the method part, now I am reading the last couple chapters of the book). I am getting that anxious/excited feeling that I am about to do something wonderful with my life!!!!
I just have a few questions for people that have read this book or used this website. Quitsmokingonline says "To Resist is to Persist" and those of you who have read that site know what this means. My question to you is: did you practice this with the cravings (acknowledging them, objectively thinking about them, dismissing them) before you actually exstinguished your final cigarette? From an intellectual standpoint, I definitely understand and believe everything this method teaches. I also know that it has only been 5 days since I first started researching quitting using these methods and I feel like I am on information overload and am "hoping" it has all sunk in. Should I reread everything and make sure before a quit date? I'm so excited about extinguishing my final, it's hard to wait, but I know it's imperative my mindset is in the right place!!! Also, even though you felt you had every tool necessary to quit using these methods, were you still a little nervous, not necessarily about quitting, but just all the excitement of it all? I can hardly distinguish nervousness from excitement right now, but I feel like if I am honestly nervous, I need to reread everything and make sure it has all gelled.
