With the help of this forum, I gave up for the first time in my life.... for 19 months.
And now I am back and needing your help AGAIN....
Can not believe it. Gutted. Back smoking as heavy as before... Just took my brain to agree that just one with a friend wasn't going to hurt.... IT DID!
Oh well, I'm back on the Champix, put the last packet down tonight and have those 2 weeks of hell, so expect my 'rantings' in these forums! Nice to meet all you new folk xx
I am guessing this is the first time you have tried to give up.? No need to be afraid... all you need to do is get through the next craving. When you go to sleep at night, no need to think or how bad tomorrow will be... just get through the next craving. You can almost 'trick' your mind that if you get through the next craving, you might have one later... but of course you don't. Get your confidence to "ROCKET HIGH" levels. Look in the mirror and say/think positive thoughts. I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it.
Goodness... today was hard.... Can not tell you how many times I walked to garage in an attempt to have a cigarette then talked my way back!
This is day Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon, Tues - 5 days! And it was the hardest.... so far~!
Can't believe I have put myself through this AGAIN!
Anyone reading this.... once you have given up, do not convince yourself that you can have just celebrating puff, a friendly puff, a little stressed puff - you could be right back at square one again.... like me! I sure have learned the hard way!
