8 days into my quit
Hi everyone, I am super new here and using all of your posts as my support network to help me through! Im day 8 now and haven't had a very easy day of it, the struggle is real. I've been reading Allen Carr and listening to podcasts to find my resolve, and trying to distract myself with work. I'm hoping it gets easier soon! Any tips gratefully appreciated!
Welcome Helzie, you are on the right track by posting and learning about the devastating addiction that causes many problems. Have a further look at How to grow to be a happy nonsmoker by NASIA DAVOS, a video you will find on u tube. TedxUniversityofPiraeus. We all have a need for pleasure, so you need to reward yourself regularly. NOPE (not one puff ever)
If you are reading Allan Carr don't skim or speed read it but come to understand every instance he means. It is how we relate to smoking which can set us free or hold us back. The proper mindset really will make it easier and also have more likelihood of lifetime success. Read all you can here , on line and videos are good too. We know how you feel , ....and we also you can the join the ranks of happy non-smokers!
