Pneumonia trumps cravings.

I knew I was getting sick Sunday. By Wednesday I was coughing so bad I COULDN'T smoke a cigarette. One puff and my lungs were trying to exit my body, the coughing was so bad I thought death was imminent, and then I wee'd in my pants. I have not smoked a whole cigarette since. A puff has been enough to make me stop. I've been really ill for four days and I have not smoked at all. I get cravings but so far so good. Anxiety might send me over the edge, and removing all tobacco products from my reach is impossible because my partner still smokes and we've always rolled our own, and I'm much more likely to have an anxiety attack if I know there is no tobacco. (I quit once, for a year, and carried smokes with me to avoid the anxiety that makes me want a smoke.)

So today I'm starting to feel better, and it's Sunday again. If I can go FOUR WHOLE DAYS without a smoke, I should be able to go five, or ten, or ALL the days without smoking.
