Dreams!!! :(

Good morning peeps!  Deep breaths of good clean air! Mmmmm! I am at day 5 now!     

Well, I had a dream last night...that I was using my vaping device, which I put away and do not use at

all, and in my dream, it wasn't working properly, and I was not happy that I couldn't use it!  It was a

short dream and I really didn't think too much of it, until I woke up this morning. 

I gotta say, when I did wake up, I did not think about the dream at all, but was actually for the first time,

since I quit, really having to fight the urge to want to smoke.  Guess what???

I did fight it, and that urge passed..... It is really a mind game that nicotine.....a demon that I suppose I

will always have lurking around corners, events, places I go.....I am really enjoying the Allen Carr book,

and it could be why I was dreaming, because I was reading it right before I went to bed.

I am stronger than ever this time though, I have nothing to cope with except my fight to stay nicotine free. 

There is no other option but to fight the demon that has controlled my life for too long now!

I will enjoy my new found FREEDOM each and every day from here forward.  43 years is too long

to let nicotine control ones self! 

Have a great day everyone!  I have a busy day at work, but I'll be back!  Stay strong and keep fighting!

You all got this!

Sandy

I'm an active 55 year old woman, who loves hanging with my family. I have 5 children 2 of them married, and 4 grand children. They are all my whole world. UPDATE 8/21/23 Now 61 years and have 2 more grandsons to add to the crew! My hobbies are bike riding, golfing, bowling, kayaking, painting (canvas or rocks) and gardening (getting the hang of it finally) I have smoked since I was 13 yrs old, and quit one time within the last ten years for a total of 9 months. Stress took me back to smoking. My life has been stress free for the last couple of years. Divorced for 2 years now, but back together with my Ex (husband) for a year now. It's time, I'm ready, and I quit! So far it's been pretty easy, so I'm very optimistic about this being my final quit! Thanks in advance for all the support! 2023 - Update: I now have 2 more grandbabies for a total of 6 and still smoke free! They will never get to know me as a smoker!!!!!!
