Hellow freinds, It's the Good Smoker here again. I was trying to say hi to all my new friends on this site one at a time and desided that must be withdrawal brain too because the main blog is quicker. Yes today is day 6!! Wow, great to say and think but really hard to feel. Like I just told another freind, I even went to my doctor today to see if I was sick or was this really ALL from not smoking. Well she said my allergies are bad but I need to take care of myself because I might feel bad for 'a little while." Yuck. And what do you think the first thing that happened when I got in the car? Yes a really strong crave. This smoking thing really was running my life and I really did not seem to care. Craving one now, but NO WAY. If for no other reason I don't want to feel like this again. The good news here is I am laughing at myself as I write this because I know it will pass and I plan to keep my sense of humor about this. It will be over. I will change my "home page" to be happy- go lucky, with smiles and hugs and really mean it. I do mean the hugs now. Told my doctor about this web site today. Told her I couldn't have made it 6 days without you guys. Must admit I am still very worried about being around smoke. I have been keeping myself away from it this whole time as I am currently not working. Yes, I fear for my quit. I don't want to loose it! One of you wonderful people told me the last time I was rambling on that I am stronger then I realize. I know that. I just needed to here it. I have practiced saying "no thank you I quit" and "I don't smoke." I look forward to saying those words, I JUST DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO SMELL THE SMOKE WHEN I DO CUZ I AM SURE I WILL CRAVE. That does not mean I will smoke! Craving is fine, normal even, but smoking is not! well need to stop now. Thanks to all of you!! Remember all the talk of withdrawal is true but I am still smiling because I am not alone and I really want to quit. hugs. The Good Smoker
