Share your quitting journey
If it was your last cigarette, you've likely had more than one.
I had my last cigarette at 7:15 in the morning to get dopamine after 8 hours without nicotine, nothing more. It was my plan to save one for the morning of my quit for that specific reason. (but I didn't buy the patch ahead of time or rush to the store for them as soon as I smoked my last cigarette)
I had planned to use the patch because quite simply, I had not studied nor learned anything outside myself about smoking before I quit.
What I did learn before I quit was I didn't need to smoke just because I thought I did.
I learned this by simply thinking before I smoked in the 4 weeks before I quit.
I simply told myself to wait a little longer when I wanted to smoke. That's it. I didn't count. I didn't get stressed out. I didn't set a quit date until I was at the counter KNOWING I was buying my last pack.
If you've had more than one last cigarette, had you really decided or were you just hoping it would happen again?
