Quitted Feb 6th I think , well it will be 3 weeks coming Tuesday . Its been an up and down ride mainly battling with the down in the dumps feeling . Im in Mexico right now on vacations and the buggers here sell cigs individually on every street corner .Ive never had the need to smoke since I stopped but the temptation is immense here lol . Last night I had my first dream that I had smoked, in fact I dreamt that I was dreaming of smoking , weird right ?Anyway in my dream I was disgusted withmyself and I dreamt I woke and just started smelling my fingers and they stank of smoke , then I really woke up and did the same but of course there was no smoke to be smelt , that was a relief : ) I wish the down in the dumps thing would go away : ((

schedule 25 Feb 2018

We all have these days just try to find some things to look forward to. It is raining in Sydney but going to head to gym and so some stuff around the house. Keeping busy helps me with the cravings. Esp exercise. Enjoy Mexico. Lucky you! Stay strong.

Hi there mrsimon. Hope you r enjoying ur. Holiday in Mexico. U know I was reading a post from someone the other day & it really resonated with me & it said "no one ever died from NOT smoking". It went on 2 say that whilst the cravings maybe difficult at times but they won't kill u. Stay strong! I know u don't like the idea but I start champix 2morrow. Hopefully it will be a positive result as unfortunately I can't do cold turkey, I need intervention. I'm still smoking but 2day I had only 7 compared 2 my usual 18 to 20 a day. So there's hope 4 me yet. Lol! Stay strong! NOONE EVER DIED FROM NOT SMOKING.
