Aged Care EX-smoker quit experience
Posted in Quit experiences

By LizMitchell
I haven't smoked now for 7 days and I am feeling great, as you will see if you read my article in Hints and Tips I work in Aged Care. God i find it extremely difficult, yes every day i think of having a cigarette and how good it would feel. Then I think to myself NO I can succeed and give up smoking I don't need it and I am not going to let this drug Nicotine win.
I just keep thinking the following thoughts:
- after 3 weeks my body will start to repair itself
- how my husband and i will be better of financially
- how i won't have to constantly see yellow teeth each day when i brush
- how i won't always smell like cigarettes
- eventually my husband and i will be able to celebrate being pregnant
- my health will improve hoping that eventually i no longer have to suffer from asthma
