Staying quit

Yesterday i was actually salivating thinking about a nicotine hit. I haven't had that type of craving in 20 days. Today, not so bad. At this point a lot of traditional triggers have been presented to me. You see, I smoked or dipped to cover anxiety and stress. Well since my quit my wife has lost her job, I have a new boss, and the job has been very stressful. I'v not used through all those...

Having lost all hope that I’d ever manage to stay quit for more than a week, let alone five and counting, I thought I’d share a seemingly lesser known tip. What made all the difference is this short and down to the point book, 40-Day Companion to Quitting Smoking by J.F. Hunter. All it asked was not to smoke (I went cold turkey) + stick to a clever little daily reading for 40 days, then reassess....

Hmm, how do I start this. I suppose just writing down how I’m feeling right now. Hopefully it’s therapeutic. I’m 3 days in, with a slip up at work yesterday (day 2) when a co-worker offered me 1 at the end of the day. I snatched it without a second thought, and as I lit it I told him, I was trying to quit, and he ruined it. Fact is I sabotaged myself in not letting friends and co-workers know. ...

Going great everyone, the nicotine cravings have eased & know I can go on further to be smoke free forever. That is alot for me to say, I think I'm getting wiser as I'm getting older. I've never really tried to give up smoking totally, I have tried several times over the years, never felt this confident. I drove trucks for many years, where the boredom made you smoke more. Now these days I can ...

Will you look at that, 444 days since I became a non-smoker. It has been going really well for me. Until recently. I have been slacking off on exercising. I have gained weight. I haven’t been on the best of terms with my parents and I have been feeling like crap. I have been drinking too. Not a lot though. Right now, I do not feel in control of my emotions. The past few days have not been ...

My name is Debra - and I am a smoke-aholic. There is no such thing as just one puff.

Today is day 91. Ive saved just over $5000. I just booked a NZ cruise for 12 nights with the ultimate drink package x 2. Leave in 55 days. You too can book a holiday. I just banked what I spent aweek in a side account {as it was money I didnt miss} and wella. To see the money mount up it give me another reason to see how long it takes to get my account back to $5000 again.

I see my light come shining From the east unto the west. Any day now, any day now, I shall be released. 6th Day, never going back to smoking & being terrorised by a TERRORIST by the way of smoking. I am released from nicotine & continue to enjoy my life better. This is my first time realising, what a waste of health & money all these years. Anyway I will see life in a different perceptive...

Today am Thanking God my Family and Friends for the support.Today is One Year I Quit Smoking Cigarettes.👍🙌
