DAY 28

It will be 4 weeks tomorrow for me. I'm so pleased with myself. However i am also frustrated that i have moments when i think it's all to much and i'll just have a smoke. I know i have achieved so much. Never in almost 30 years have i gone a month of not smoking. I'm still trying so hard not to smoke that i'm not thinking of myself as a non smoker or ex smoker. Not sure where my mindset should be at this stage.
I can go a whole day not thinking of smoking thrn it will hit me big time out of the blue. I get agitated i salivate and crave a smoke. Is this going to be a lifelong battle ???????????????
It's such hard work sometimes

Hi Kathyrose, I completely understand where you're coming from, I feel worn out still from yesterday as I was really fighting, so I'm more than a bit dubious about how today will shape up, I'm sure we'll both be fine, keep going, fight the good fight and all that crap *mental not... buy a punchbag on the way home from work.
Have a great day.
Well DONE Kathryrose. I think we all wait for a moment when we are not thinking about it, not sure when it comes, I think it varies for people. My mindset is one of I have 'stopped' smoking. For some reason that works for me. Oh, I want one but I wont have one because I have stopped for 47 dyas now etc. Truly congratulations you should be PROUD of yourself.
