I just became a member today. I am finally serious about letting cigarettes go. I had this grand plan about buying my LAST pack- but just looking at that pack practically gave me a panic attack. So I decided I needed to get help. I first went to the quitnow site. And that led me here. And I can tell this is going to be a wonderful tool in my STEPS to quitting. I think I was setting myself up for failure with the cold turkey thing. I did my first separate and delay exercise on my way home from work. Usually light up as soon as I hit the car. But I waited until I was home. While in the car- my heart felt like it was going to beat out of my chest- and was a little light-headed- guess that was just my body reacting to not having it's drug. And then STOOD on the back porch instead of sitting down and looking at facebook on my phone. Can I just say- I HATE THIS FEELING. WHY CAN'T SMOKING BE GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!! lol. So I will let this blog be my outlet. My way of reminding myself- I CAN DO THIS!!!
