I have heard of a “rule of 3's†where a lot of people have problems with their quits at the 3 day, 3 week and 3 month mark.
I hit the 3 month mark in my quit yesterday.
I don't want to smoke but there are a lot of other stressors going on in my life right now. I recognize all of these events as something that would have made me go off and light up. That was then and this is now.
I am committed to staying quit.
PERIOD
While I don’t have even the least desire to go buy a pack and light up, something doesn’t seem right.
I have read of people still having craves after being quit for 6 months or a year.
Are “craves†that are months into a quit really craves or are they more like memories of how we used to handle stress? I am not sure how to interpret some of what I am experiencing right now.
I have no idea if I am making sense but thanks in advance to anyone who might have some insight.
