MontanaMama's Status Update on 01/26/2021

2 days in to hell week. I’m a recovering alcoholic and am having flash backs to my first days sober. Phew, dang! Quitting e-cig isn’t as bad as that I guess. But in some ways it is, the commitment to quitting vaping seems less important than committing to quitting drinking... so I feel myself thinking maybe it would be OK if I picked up again. Self sabotage! “Knock it off self!“

You DO know it is one day at a time, don’t let that “stinkin thinkin” in.  My husband is a recovering alcoholic who also quit smoking after he had been sober for a while. He definitely used the program to help with quitting & you can too. I have not smoked in over 7 years & l used what l had learned in AlAnon as well as the amazing support l found on EX. You CAN do this & you KNOW that it will get easier. Stay close.
