The last time I had a smoke was 3/8/22 at 7am so almost on my full day with out a smoke that’s some progress right there having some cravings Bc I just had my morning coffee and that was hard Bc I always associate smoking with caffeine I have been journaling in the last 24 hours read my tools to quit book any other suggestions I just don’t want to have any down time to think about a smoke gonna wash my bed sheets maybe today I heard not to expect too much for the first three days of someone’s quit is that true?? Bc I’m a person that always likes to be doing something and on the phone I always associated that with nicotine.. my bf started going in the back porch when he was smoking yesterday I guess he started to realize that it was bothering me which is better Bc I even hear it’s bad for pets and I have three cats but as soon as I woke up this am j put on a patch and put a losenger In my mouth I even was able to sleep till 430 am and I always wake up at four so that was a benefit Bc I knew I wasn’t waking up to anything such as smokes I’m not as hyper as I would usually be so it’s helping my anxiety I normally would be smoking five smokes by now which sounds kinda crazy I know that I have a few supports here the hotline a few good friends but I wish I never picked up smoking on Jan 1st to March 8th but I always used the excuse of stress for smoking had no desire to quit till yesterday when I was really broke and had no money to buy a pack I mean I had my credit card and I’ve done that before but I found it foolish to keep putting myself in debt for something that’s actually harming me and I do like to take care of my health I walk four miles a day take my vitamins and always drink my water started drinking it out of a straw for hand to mouth motion my bf asked me why but I didn’t tell him the real reason if it’s gonna help why not .. so so far I saved ten dollars even thou I don’t have to show for it but I’m not ten dollars deeper in debt so I think honestly money was the main reason of my quit and then second I was thinking of my health I would love to see my daughter have a family one day when she’s older and I would be a grandma and around for it not on a oxygen tank but I’m struggling but also benefit from my quit already in the last 23 hours
