i am simply amazed at myself, iwent to the stepdown patch on friday, and that has been going remarkably well, don't get me wrong, i have my moments, but they are so fleeting that the whole process doesn't even last a full minute, can't wait till i hit the 1 month mark, how exciting that will be! I am talking to my self constantly, even though i am not in a crave, i just keep saying i don't smoke anymore~~do i trust myself, oh hell no, if there was a cigarette any where in this house, i woulda had it smoked, then cried, but i would never have smokes around, i had 2 full packs and my husband took them to work and gave them away. Hope i will get strong enough to be around smokers in time...not yet though, and i miss my friends, but i'm gonna give it another month or so, i know they will not smoke around me, but i don't trust me enough yet....that is for another time you guys are the best, i know you have all played a part in my quit thank you I WILL DO THIS!!!!!!!!
