Depression

Today is my birthday and I took the day off hoping to have a nice day with someone like my girlfriend but she's busy and I'm having a hard time with not smoking a lot. So I'm sitting at home feeling sorry for myself I know I should get out and do something but the weather is bad that's my excuse!

Welcome to EX.  pastedImage_1.png

You have come to the right place for a new day and a rebirth.  

Congratulations on making the decision to quit smoking. 

This is all about you and what you are willing to do to be smokefree. Quitting smoking requires hard work.  It can be challenging at times but you will learn that it is doable if you adhere to NOPE not one puff ever no matter what. 

 Start First, by educating yourself about nicotine addiction.  Education is the key to a successful quit.

Read: Freedom from Nicotine My Journey Home and Nicotine Addiction 101         

Here are the links      http://whyquit.com/whyquit/LinksAAddiction.html   and http://whyquit.com/ffn/

Also Read   Allen Carr’s book, “Easy Easier Way to Quit Smoking”.       

The link is here:  http://media.wix.com/ugd/74fa87_2010cc5496521431188f905b7234a829.pdf

HaPPy BirTHdAy Mike!  What a great bday gift you gave yourself.....you quit smoking!  I went thru a depression period also and sometimes it revisits me. I try to redirect my thoughts to a positive that I quit smoking and am free of the hold nicotine had over me for decades.
