14 days = 2 Weeks

2 Weeks today and even though I am happy with myself to reach this milestone, I was really pushed to the limits last night with a family issue, that didn't make me want to bust, but i really had to sort through this quietly by myself, as it it unnerved me and made me doubt my own confidence. I was forced to weigh up all possibilities, ie, listening to negative comments from a certain family member, or ignore it and continue with my freedom. Happily i chose to ignore the comments, even though i have alienated this family member, but i hope this will pass in time when they see my success, This is my decision, my journey and no matter what, I refuse to allow myself to be drawn back into their slavery and misery. I know you good people out there probably dont need to hear my personal probs, but then maybe you can relate, but anyway thanks for being there for me,

Hi Mandella. Honestly, no problem, not even a matter of life and death means we ever have to resort to lighting up. If you think about it, it's laughable... Better to deal with what causes angst with a clear head. Becoming a chimney once again will not sort it. You are not a puppet and therefore can pull your own strings. Power to you if you do.

I hope the negative comments were just usual family bullsh*t, not actually bagging you about your decision to quit. Nobody could ever fault that as the most courageous and worthy decision a person could ever make. But once again, you have proven your strength, and every struggle that you overcome brings more power to you.
Keep it up Mandella, you are a champion!
