Missing your quit date gives you time to prepare!!! Get ready and.......GO!
There is a great blog out there for our new quitters. https://excommunity.becomeanex.org/ . You may also want to check out posts in https://excommunity.becomeanex.org/ . We are here to help you on this journey to freedom!
I know when I first found this site, many Elders told me to read read read….and I did. Elders are those with one or more years of being quit. If you like what someone has to say, then you may want to read their blogs. I have some listed below. A list of our Elders https://excommunity.becomeanex.org/blogs/Giulia-blog/2017/06/18/elders-list-ao-december-7-2016 So here's the thing.....and you may not like what I am about to say....and that's ok. I get it. You need to accept that this is an addiction. Before you do that, it will be much more difficult to quit and stay quit. Read read read. Do the steps to PREPARE yourself to quit. Do the steps so you are PREPARED on quit day and for the days AFTER quit day. Some of the things I read in my first few days that helped me: Dale’s Welcome to New Members https://excommunity.becomeanex.org/
YoungAtHeart Nancy’s Blog https://excommunity.becomeanex.org/

JACKIE1-25-15 gave me the link to Alan Carr’s book, “Easy Way to Quit Smoking”. I actually didn’t read the online PDF, but purchased a book on CD from Amazon and listened to it in my car over and over again for the first two weeks of my quit.
