Lisa asked me to share how I do It . The fist step was find this group of people. Reading allens book and other materials. Support of every one here.
What brought me here is a few things. My oldest daughter Krynn, is special needs. She will always be 6 years old: traped in ageing body, whom is going to be 14 in July ,, and have 2 other girls and stepson. I have to be around for Krynn , she will never be able to live by herself. I wanted be their for all of them, I want see the graduate, get married and all that wonderful stuff every parent wants.
I saw comercial of a lady with a voice box, and work with a lady that only has half her lung copasity left. She does some work and has to stop to catch her breath. I don't won't to carrie an oxygen taken around with me either. I finaly relize, that that could be me. I would have laughed at 25 cause, then you think nothoing can touch you . My granfather died from empazymia , did that stop no.
My husband smokes in the house , he has blowen smoke in my face. the fist few days he went outside for the most part., but would do it while I slept. The 4th day, the urge was so strong when I woke up. why because smelled the stinky damn cig and wanted, it . But I did not cave, I know what one puff will do . I will be honest I hate quiting . It sucks to start over.
I look at cigerats and smell them every day. I just have the determanation and I have Erma who inspire me to be smoke free. Erma is an exer just like us, she is a sweet person who lost her husband recently. She if anybody, had valid excuss to pick a smoke. But she did not, she knew it would not help her.
it takes attitude and if you have to yell at your self, then by all means do it. Look at the smokers that you live with. Think of him or her as a person hitting their head on the wall and they keep doing it. That would hurt. They chose to slowly kill them selfs. Find your motvation. Like I said I had smoke blowen in my face the 2nd day. I just walked away, and jumped on her to blog. Distraction is key and dont put your hand the mose trap even though the chesse tempting, get it hurts.
