How to keep it going

Okay so it’s been three weeks I’ve quit now out of 18 years. 18 years! So I’ve got 30 more at least that I have to stay quit. How do I do that? All I’ve got is 3 weeks, is there a finish line, did I do it? No. That’s not how it works but that’s the way my mind works. How to reprogram my mind? Anyone with some good smober time with some advice to keep me from falling off my victory box right on my face?

I want to keep this quit. I’ve made it a few weeks before. I’m going crazy thinking I can’t do it. It’s making me sad. I belong with a cigarette in my hand. It’s like my natural state for me. I’ve been raging against my natural state, and tricking myself out of my natural state for 3 weeks. Great job. I can’t do this forever.
