Good morning all, here I go again. I am not getting down on myself for this being my third try, I am staying positive and getting this done!!! I hate the feeling of quitting hanging over my head so it is time to tackle this full force once and for all! I am 100% committed to this quit. I had 20 days in the first time around and relapsed. This time I am in it for life! I want to be around to see my kids have kids and to love on them all the time. I don't want to be a smoker anymore. I am taking back my life, it started last night at midnight when I broke my last two Marlboro Lights. I AM DONE!!!
It is a beautiful, sunny, fall day here in Northwest Ohio. I am seriously considering leaving work early so I can feel the sun on my face and the cool breeze in my lungs. Thanks for all the support I get here, even when I fail.
You can dig deep and hard on your quit without being hard on yourself and you will have to be particularly hard on making the choice not to smoke to be quit or there will be a take 4 Jen . My faith in you is strongfast. Holdfast your quit . Post before your smoke if you can't stop yourself ..... you'd be surprised what a difference it makes . You decide your way through your crave . We are here for each other .
i struggled you've struggled m many of us have struggled together , we've had to get tough on addiction not on ourselves . We just have to know our goal and do what we think we can't do , get through the craves every single time . I know you can do that too . I just found a neat meme . It might be helpful for us all quitting or quit to visualize what going back to smoking looks like and it causes nothing but unhappiness .
Choose happiness Don't smoke Post Get through
Jen, some people find Allen Carr to be very helpful--and that's great if it works for them. I'm with you, Carr's book didn't do much for me, either. Fortunately, different approaches work for different people. Just stay the course, do the reading on this site, and keep close. And....stay away from carryout for now.
