.You know the drill! I will give you the reading assignments again - just in case:
The most important thing you can do is to educate yourself on what nicotine does to your mind and body. To that end, I highly recommend Allen Carr's “The Easy Way to Stop Smoking.” Here is a link to a free PDF version of it:
As well, read the sections on this site, do the tracking and separation exercises, and read the blogs, responses and pages of folks you think might be helpful. You might also want to visit quitsmokingonline.com, and whyquit.com.
After you have completed the readings, it will be time to make your quit plan, including what quit aid , if any, you will use, and the crave busters you think will work for you. Then you can approach your quit day with a plan in place
I was a prisoner of smoking for a very long time, I have had a lot of do overs. Thank goodness for that! I'm in at 4 days now, and getting stronger everyday! Hang in there, we can whoop this!
Jill, welcome back! Today is the day that matters in our life! Today is the day you are going to start/continue in this process. Do all the recommended readings and work to learn that this is an addiction and we need to be alert each and every minute.
Could you please add something about yourself to your profile page? It helps us to know you better. And in your reading...read some of the profiles on those who come here....Elders, Wise Ones, wanderers in NML and Newbies!
Also, come join us for the daily pledge to stay smoke free. Put Daily Pledge October in the search at the top of the page. Click on daily pledge, go to page 3 and join hands with those on there.
Let us know what we can do to help you in this journey!
