Today is day 90 or into week 11 of going cold turkey of no smoking,
I was a smoker of at least 45 years and just prior to giving up I was hitting 60+ smokes a day, I smoked rollies, White Ox,..I had been thinking of giving up many, many times over the years, but as the time went by 1 year turned into 2 and so forth and here I was still fagging away,
We I gave up 90 days ago it was not my full intention to give up it just happened..A few days prior I went to see my normal GP I said that I wanted to give up smoking he gave me the Champix I asked about the side effects, he listed them, I got the script filled,, I still didnt look at the box..2 days later I had noticed that I wasnt smoking as much I said to myself I will see how I go tomorrow and just monitor how many l have during the day, so at the end of that day I had 13 smokes well I said to myself I will see if I smoke tomorrow..the results are that I haven't had a smoke since.
Maybe my body told me that it has had enough of the years of smoking, trust me it hasn't been easy as some days I could of easily picked up a smoke, I still have my smokes here with me on there table, people where I work smoke and my home scene, I visit about 100 shops a day with my work so I have all the places where I can beg or buy smokes but I am determined that I want to win over this addiction, plus a stash $120.00 each Monday away, Monday was my buying smokes day, and thats how much it was costing me.
So I never gave myself a Deadline it chose me,
I congratulate anyone who gives up on addiction.
