Quitting on holidays!
Im curious as to whether anyone started their quit journey on a family holiday? My husband and I stupidly started smoking again 2 years ago after quoting for 10 + years. We hate it and want to stop - but failed many times! No one know we smoke - our kids down know - it’s a secret.
We left on a family holiday yesterday and we both put in a patch and are stopping while away. My brain says it’s a stupid idea but we’re coping ok since we are so busy and around the kids a lot. Has anyone else quit on holidays?
I know of a few that have, although I was not one.
Change of routine is something that helped me, and tricks to keep the mind off of wanting that smoke when a craving hits. A quick phone call or a game on the phone to redirect your thoughts works great. Deep breaths or a drink of water also can help. Isn't it nice to now have to stop your activities to look for a smoking post"
Look at the positives of quitting smoking. Believe you can do this and you will.
