Give and get support around quitting
July 28, 2016 is going to be my quit date. That is tomorrow. I am so nervous and excited at the same time. Thanks for creating this group for first week quitters. I am sure I will be here a lot the next week.
Okay, this is my first step to quit smoking and I feel totally lost. I'm not sure how to get started and have no will power. I feel lost. What to do?
My Husband and I are on day 3. We are doig well do far. Time will pass quickly and we will be at 30 too.
I am in the 14th day of my non smoking journey. It isn't my first rodeo though. I have been here a few times before. This time is very different. I have not experienced the anger or frustration that has always occurred every other time. Walking and exercise have made a huge difference. I started my program a year ago so it has become habit making the quitting that much easier. I highly reccomend that if you are finding yourself feeling anger or the urge to over eat find an exercise program that you enjoy. See if it will help. I am gwessing that you will be surprised. It will still be a struggle but I am finding myself much more relaxed this time around with a greater strength of committment. Good luck to all.
Day 48. Smoked for about 36 years. Cravings aren't the bother but the depression is. At least I am hoping I feel so down is because I have quit smoking.
Hello, tommorow is my quit day --- I am down right scared of failure. -- I decided my bedtime routine for this evening will be do a no smoke zone sweep of the house -- removing anything from the house that is in any way related to smoking.
Then instead of smoking in the morning when I wake up -- I will log on the the blog and type then exercise then get my son ready for school. Wish me well.
Excuse me if I end up typing a lot inorder to get through the cravings -- I hope everyone here a successfull journey.
I started Zyban 9 days ago and quit this morning cold turkey. Here's my trigger mantra and it's stopping the urge from even getting started and is scaring it away. Urge is really scared by the display of willpower. Mr Urge tries to sneak in but
