Excuses

Hello everybody, I'm on day 31 today. I've had the most horrible day and felt like a smoke several times. I didn't have one though. I couldn't be bothered to think of an excuse to convince myself that I was allowed to have one. I'm just so happy with my progress and how I feel I truly believe that this is the last time. It must be either I have matured so much since my last attempt, or so many things have happened in my life to wake me up and pull my head into the reality of what I am doing by smoking. Or both?? Either way I haven't been as angry or short tempered or irritable this attempt. I've been really relaxed about everything. Even when having a craving just knowing to accept it not fight does wonders. I hope I stay this relaxed and happy for a while.

Way to go deadrocks. You'll probably find that you learned from your last attempt. You know the traps, the triggers, the pitfalls, so you're better prepared. I remember my day 31 was horrible too ... sounds like you've got the willpower to push through though. You're doing great! Stay happy!!
