Day 3
Day 3... getting harder... sailed through day 1... day 2 started to get urges and last night I very nearly gave in. Today is day 3 and struggling. Trying to stay positive but also find myself thinking “just one”. Also getting very snappy and irritable and thinking this isn’t fair on the kids (after I’ve snapped at them for the 50th time). Using my bubblegum vapour which helps but too be honest, I would give anything right now to sit down with a cuppa and a Cigarette 😪
You really must change that way of thinking. Instead of thinking "just one" think instead The worst is past, i am doing it!
Things will get better and you will adju
continuing from above.... You will adjust to be a non-smoker with a new routine and ways to keep busy without a cigarette in hand. You don't say whether the bubblegum vape is nicotine free or not. I am assuming so, and good on you. Tomorrow, cravings should start to ease off some. Like I say, if you think positive, it really is easier than fighting it. That prolongs it. Review the reasons why you have taken this journey. You have come this far, don't falter now.
Take a deep breath. Count to ten. Assess and react.
You really can do this!
I used to think that situation became stressful, I need a cigarette, but now things just don’t seem as stressful, I don’t need to choke myself to think clearly anymore. It does become calmer and less stressful.
