I am 22 hours into my 6 day of quitting; 2 more hour to go to make it to 7 days. I quit back in 2014 for only 8 months. I swore I would never go back to smoking and go through this nightmare again, yet here I am starting all over again. The trigger that happened last time is nearly impossible for it to happen again, so no worries on trying to avoid that. About an hour ago, I was trying my hardest to convince myself I could just have one, what the heck I'm on Chantix I'll just up the dose to help me make it through this again. I went and grabbed a smoke from a family member. I then went back to my office and put it in my desk drawer. Thought about giving it back to him but then the fear of it not being there freaked me out. I don't know why cuz I wont smoke it, there are cigs and ashtrays out on the deck and easily accessible. Not sure what my issue is here. My anxiety is through the roof at times and i feel like I'm going to have a heart attack from it. Who said 3-5 minutes is crazy cuz my anxiety lasts for quite some time and then I go to feeling calm which doesn't last long for me. Maybe the knowing I have the cig right there may be the in Control I need cuz the more i write the calmer I'm feeling and having felt calm all day. OR am i just nuts and the little nicotine demon is whispering in my ear again.
