My Ouit Date is coming

[leslee-parks]

Ok, my quit date is vast approaching, and that is all I can think about. The closer it gets the more afraid I get! I just wanted to know if anyone else felt that way, and does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle that? I did stop smoking for two years, and started again. I do not remember being this afraid the first time. I want to succeed this time around, and stay smoke free!!

The fear of quitting is worse than the actual quitting.

Jump in.

Just say no when you get a crave.

I got myself all worked up over the QUIT DATE!!! I faltered at first then quit again almost immediately. I think one of the reasons that I had trouble was the crazy build up in my mind. Don't do that it's just like any other day, more difficult than some, but not the worst. I'm even starting to think about it as one of my best days now.

I felt the same way, SCARED !!!!! but today is day 6 of being puff-free..... I honestly feel like I was afraid of being lonely, I used my cig.'s as a comfort thing, today I found out my hubby ( A Marine ) may be going to Iraq !!!! I 'm really afraid when we find out for sure, I'll go back to smoking, I quit for 28 days then he had to go away for 6 weeks for training and I started back, Iraq would be 6 months at the least.... but until we find out for sure I'm hanging tough or at least tring, best of luck, Theresa

I set my quit date only a week when I decided to quit. Less time I had to think about. I actually ran out of cigarettes a day before my quit, and decided that this would be the day. Good Luck
