Here goes. On quit day #7, it was a Saturday morning and my first time to be home alone, since quitting. This would be the last day of Hell Week for me. I used to smoke cigs, but I knew I had a hated vape pen in the house and I was gonna find it....noone to stop me. The darn thing worked and I took a few puffs (never liked vaping). Then, I came to my senses, and never ever did that again! Quit day 200. Don't be me, please. Be well prepared, cos like you, in the past, if I had an alone moment one of my fav things to do would be to fill that time with a quiet smoke. Have a plan, so if/when a thought or crave comes, you can work through it. The very fact that you are already thinking about that time, shows your commitment. These will be the moments that try you. You have 43 nicotine free days under your belt!!! That is huge, awesome. Plan a movie time and some hot cocoa, paint your nails or something that you CAN do, that doesn't include self harm. You have navigated without nicotine for 43 days, and said NO many times, because you don't want to be a nicotine addict! You got this.
