Thx all
I am sorry for what you are dealing with,. Divorce can be quite the grieving process of how were raised, and what is told to us about marriage as youngsters. Please know you did not fail no matter the situation.
prayers and you can do this.
There really is no great day to quit an addiction. Most importantly breathe and thumb thru Youtube for, meditation vids and other ways to relax thru the craves.
You can do this George-Martin

Whoo hoo about your quit date...I am so sorry you are going through a divorce, but guess what ? Smoking won't help your marriage and/or your divorce so rid that toxic addiction out of your life. Just think you will save money and get healthier. Perhaps as this chapter of your life closes a better one will open...Gotcha in my thoughts ~ Colleen
Here is what I wrote in your other post...

The prepare for this date like no other...We are all in this journey together...Keep close to the site for any and all help...~ Colleen
I quit cold turkey and am not a fan of it. But I've heard smart turkey talked about here at Ex.
Here is a least one EX link to the topic Be a SMART Turkey! (A Very Timely Repost, eh?).
At Ex, you can be assured that you will have ongoing support--the community is here 365. Keep coming back--read, learn, share.
A name from the past. Welcome back! The site is very different now, but the support is the same, genuine and whole hearted. In answer to your question - if you've done your preparation, then it's not too soon. You've been down this trail before so should know what the pitfalls are. Might do some reading in Relapse Prevention and check out some of the Relapse Traps blogs. This Jive platform has a strong search engine which makes it helpful when you're snooping specific topics. Glad you're back at it. Sorry about your divorce. Quitting smoking is a great way to begin your new life. Chin up!
