Enough is Enough.

So today is day one and a new beginning.  I am nervous and quietly excited at the same time.

I have attempted to quit a few times before, each with varying levels of success....but all failing in the end.  I've tried the patches, been on the meds.  But each time had the same weak point, my heart just wasn't in it!

That's where this time is different!

I'm simply sick of smoking.  I simply don't enjoy it any more.  I can't stand the smell, the taste or the amount of money going down the drain.

I want my health back and I want to feel 'human' again.  The cold reality of watching several family members die over the years due to smoking related illnesses has finally hit home.

I am taking a different plan this time, Cold Turkey all the way. As of now I AM smoke free and nicotine does not rule my life, and this is the way it will stay.

For me, this time is not just an attempt....I WILL succeed!! :)

You sound determined! Wish u all the luck with your quittin. Stay strong and keep busy is probably the best advice I have heard- keeping busy and keeping your mind off the smoking really does help.

There will be humps and bumps along the way, just drive slowly and take one day at a time. All the best!
