Day 1...

0 4 57

Today has been weird, but going ok. I’m fine in between cravings, almost happy, but the cravings come in these brief waves of anger, and then they are gone. And it seems that I smoked so much that EVERYTHING is a trigger. Apparently I couldn’t do even the most mundane stuff without a cigarette.

And boredom is a huge trigger. The older kids had a two hour delay today, and they are in the defiant teen stage, so that was fun. Then the baby takes a nap, the 4 year old watches a movie, and I have all kinds of time to do nothing.

I’m trying not to eat everything in the house. I am secure in knowing that this is my last quit. I just need to get through the rest of the day.

How do you have a craving, but absolutely no desire to smoke? Does that question make sense?

Omg I've been a smoker for 20 years? I never thought about it until I was just about to say it. That's sad... Well anyway, I have made many attempts to quit over the last 5 years while studying the psychology of smoking, and trying to figure the nature of my own addiction. As of this typing, I am currently approaching a quit day, and if I have anything to say about it, it will be my last. I am fast approaching the secret I have been missing to quitting.
