Day one

I feel very good today and am proud of myself. I didnt feel the need to smoke and only had some a small amount if time when I thought about it. Mostly when driving and after I ate dinner. Now it's getting late and my day is winding down so I need to keep my mind and hands busy because night time can be a challenge. I am using the patch so I think it makes it a lot easier.

I battled with depression and anxiety for many years it became so unbearable I ended up being hospitalized. I promised myself I would overcome and not be taken down by that beast again. I am more than half the way up that steep hill of recovery and have fought hard to get where I am at today. I have no room in my life for unhealthy habits they just stunt my progress. I love my life and want to live the best I can. I realize smoking is not helping me do that even though I thought it was helping me through the depression and anxiety then it became a part of me. I want that part of me gone, I want to breathe, I want to go on hikes again,I want my teeth white again,I want to smell good. I want money in my pocket, I don't want to reach for a cigarette every time I drive or after I eat or when I'm stressed or when I wake up or before I go to bed or every half hour.I could go on and on but I'll spare you because I'm sure you know. So that's it thanks
